i have a 99' honda civic Si and i was wondering if i was running 8psi with the drag 3 kit will my car be a reliable daily driver? im gonna build it before the turbo but what compression would be the most reliable? i was thinking just keeping it near stock compression, what do you guys think? i gonna do srp pistons, eagle rods and new rings. is there any thing else i should do?

 

Yes. The compression is up to you. Lowering it will allow you to run more boost but can give you boost lag. Raising it will give you a quicker response until you hit boost, but boost can only be raised up with an almost perfect fuel setup/tune.

Reliabilty has nothing to do with the psi. Reliabilty lies the horsepower. Even then you will have to run extreme amounts of horsepower. One of the Titan Motorsports drivers lives in my town and daily drives his 750whp Supra.
