........This motor can handle over 30psi if it could move enough air to push a turbo that high. He could go a bigger turbo then the 400hp GT25 he has now (something like a GT35-Gt40) and get 30psi but will be very peeky, very laggy and not street friendly.


GT25 I reckon. Though I thought Michael Brown's was a GT28R.

Geez getting up around the 28/30 range is a hooooge biatch for a 1.3 litre! :?
I imagine not much would happen..... then BAM! into a tree... or the car beside you :evil: :wink:

I suggest you have a good read of all the different turbos compressor maps and work out where you want the mumbo to happen. Yes big turbs equal big power figures, but that's not what it's all about on the street :wink:
