im not to familiar with these cars yet so bear with me...
i currently roll in a 17 second horizon (rawr) i have a bone stock 2.2 tbi with a k&n dropin and 2" exhaust. i know all about turbos thats not the problem (i started my boosting on an old 86 tbird turbo coupe, (got it built up running 20psi, it was pretty sweet)
anyway i want to grab an intercooler and small stock mitsu turbo and get it all plumed up nice, and i was wondering would 5-7psi be too much on this non turbo motor? for now a swap isnt in the budget but i can grap a small mitsu turbo from a friend for $25 and i have an ol front mount intercooler i never used on the tbird brand new in the box. i can do the piping myself so it might cost me a whoppin $175 to get the turbo on. then id have to do the injectors etc... i got it down but i just need to be sure before i do it if ill blow it up running 7psi.
it seems i cant post without including my life story... sorry guys but help is appreciated
