he can dream though :happysad:
LOL this guy is so funny! Just do what he says and send your motor to Japan to Spoon so they can build your race engine. Go back to gran turismo 4 and get yourself a stage 4 all motor setup, set you back about 65000 credits so save up. LOL!
Regardless of the fact that this threads pretty much turned into bashing on eachother's opinions and/or stupidity...
if you wanna push any number even close to that amount of PSI, without blowing the motor, it's gonna take a fully built motor..
Sleeves, forged rods/pistons and a blueprint at the very least before I'd even consider anything over 7ish psi.

i agree with ninj4r.... most of the people that tried to give advice dont know what they're talking about. spoon is not about boost... not to say they can't... but not they're speciality. if ur looking to run that kinda boost be preparred to be in the shop a lot, fully built wont stop that. but go to shops that have proven time and time again they can do this kind of thing. e.g. my ex place of employment, Jotech motorsports. kenny's hatch runs on roughly 34p.s.i. and he has built numerous motors that handle upwards of 700hp. as far as braggin rights are concerned... to say i have say 650whp is way more impressive than im runnin 25p.s.i. and juice... but regardless... i hope ur pockets are very deep! the motor build ur looking for alone is gonna run ya around $10g's, then u'll want most likely a motec system if ur gonna go wit nitrous and tunning and suspension and all kinds of things. there's a lot more to building what ur talking about than just the motor.
