If I recall, they make some drop in forged pistons to fix that, you dont have to worry about much other than that ?

Pistons are one thing and yes you can get some extra capacity out of the drop ins, but connecting rods will be the next issue at around 750+

There will be no issue with making 700whp on 10psi and full E85 with the EV800 package. Very easy to swap WG springs and also to adjust boost with the manual boost controller included in this kit. The OEM intake manifold will hold 10psi easily
