I believe 17 psi is the maximum theoretical given optimum crank alternator and blower pulley sizes...but youd be way beyond the point of diminishing returns. That and the heat generated at that boost level would tear the teflon coating right off those rotors...

dont go over 12psi and not if youre passong about 7.5 k rpm.
if you are single cam or non vtec dohc youre looking at the m45 which really dies about 7k. scc ran the old sohc up to 12 psi and saw intake temps on the discharge tube get to nearly 200 degrees. keep it to 8 and youre ok. anything more and get a turbo instead. boost kits from jackson consist of jim watts telling you to buy a b20 crank pulley

any qestions? email me.
