i cant seam to find this info so i need to know for a starting point.....also my i/c is gonna be swapped for a tbird intercooler mounted up under the front so how much will this effect anything and how high am i safe as far as stock fuel etc.....like am i ok till 18 psi or so??? or do i "have" to add more fuel at what point???

stock i think was 12psi, you wont get much higher than 15psi on stock fuel with out leaning out.

15 is fine for me its a street car anyways...not a track car........what with runnin at 15 psi could i expect if it were a 1/4 mile car??? just curious ya know........but how much will it effect the psi runnin the new i/c setup? and should i just put on a bleed to get it to 15psi or??? originally i was upgrading everything but for now going stock till the new head and gasket are broke in then up to about 15 or so then we'll go from there...depending on how i like it etc......

thankx for any info

best pass i have made to date was on 14 psi(14.5 @ 102.5MPH)...really bad traction-2.5second 60'- for reference's sake, but in an omni @ 2400 bs. with driver....ran a few 14.6's on 11 psi the year before.

Get a Grainger Valve. Set it to 15psi. This will give you more low end torque then a bleed by keeping the wastegate completely shut until you get to 15psi.
