Hey guys, Ive looked on a bunch of forums about turboing the stock 420a. Everyone has said that the stock engine can be turboed. I just want to know,
how many PSI can the engine SAFELY handle without detonation . I want to use the stock fuel system and the stock internals. ive heard its around 5-7PSI, but ijust want to be safe. Thank you in advance

Ya... I heard about 5-8 psi... 8 psi being absolute maximum... I would keep below 7 to be safe.
