20psi is pretty easy, with good tuning that should be fine with just a metal head gasket

You'll need a lot more than 20psi if you want to acheive the 500bhp you quoted in another post :wink:

20psi :roll:


It all depends on what other mods have been done. Water injection could be a good plan too.
