How much boost are you running
Just doing a survey. ECS S/C , meth kit stock exhausts and no other mods.686 RWHP, 11.5 pounds of boost on a cool day. What about you guys ?

Don't know, I live in New Jersey. S/C and meth kit was installed last Friday. Tuned by Doug at ECS on a fairly cool day 75ish out very low humidity and it came in at 686 RWHP at 11.5 labs of boost. I have the dyno sheet to prove it. Doug said that its pretty normal with stock exhaust.

With the STOCK internals, I PERSONALLY do not feel comfortable (long-term endurance and survivability of the engine) in running more than 8 pounds of boost, regardless if using METH and/or or E85. That is just me though. I know that plenty of people are running 12 - 13 pounds though with METH on stock internals. Tuning is key though, but there is only so much that the non-forged stock pistons/internals can take.
