6-8lbs safely on stock internals some go as high as 10lbs of boost. The tune is the key to survival. If you put internals in it, I'd say 9:1 compression get good pistons,rings, and rods, ARP bolts, etc...... Lots of money though, can save alot by doing labor yourself if you're able. I want one on mine but will be doing in steps as money allows me too. Prbably pull the motor out at the end of 2004 and put internals in it, then save up for a blower by spring/summer 2005
