its funny how everyone says 7psi but you are clueless on what turbo he is using. 7psi on a t25 or T3/T4 is not the same pressure and CFM as a GT35R running 7psi. it depends on the turbo.

next time you're going to ask such a vague question, please specify what type of turbo you will be running and your future setup. i'm not being a ********, im just tired of people asking the same question but with nothing to go on like what type of turbo, comp/turb wheel, etc..

200k? You might want to invest your money in rebuilding it first

RE-building? ;lol might as well fully build it.. i mean if ur going to be working on the motor, whynot just put in some forged internals? spend a little bit more buthave a safer/more reliable motor to work on.

just my insight..
