Most engines don't come with forged internals from the factory.

14 is good for the T25, 15 and you are going past its efficiency.

1) Have no idea. But turbo cars do not have headers, they have manifolds...and usually upgrading those with out upgrading the turbo is pointless.
2)dual exhaust look a 240 is pointless as well, it just adds extra weight, no true purpose other then looks.

With all the talk of upping the boost remember to upgrade your fuel pump first thing. With a FMIC and supporting mods( intake, exhaust, boost controller) you can run 13-15psi which is about the limit for the stock turbo and injectors all day everyday. This setup will have you around 240-250whp and the stock internals won't even blink.

will a front clip come with a silvia pump? and will the silvia pump handal the turbo at 14-15 if not how much will a fuel pump caos that can?

if the sr can take 15 with out a problem what is its max with out re-enforcement? and with out killing the life span down to like a discustingly low amount?

There are quite a few SR's running around the 400-500 hp range with stock internals. As for the pump, clips will not include it. Most people upgrade to a Walbro high pressure 255lph (what I have) or a stock 300zx turbo pump. The walbro is about $100 and the OEM Nissan pump will run you over $200 and takes a little modification.

" Most states require you to update your VIN with the new engine serial number. This usually requires going to a Referee Station where they will inspect the car visually and through a tailpipe test. If it all passes, an Engine Identification tag is placed in the doorjamb so you can drive your car without sweating when the donut shop closes and Officer Fresh from the Academy rolls up behind you."

This is the most redicoulus thread.

Yes you can take the stock turbo to 13-15 psi.

As far as aftermarket turbos, it depends on the turbo and ur supporting mods as to how much boost u can run. 20 psi on a T88 is A LOT more air than 20 psi on a Big T28. You cant think in terms of how much boost u can run, but rather how much hp can the stock internals take....about 500 WHP.
