people say thats crazy but if the tune is good its not as bad as many think. there are plenty of guys with turbo hondas running 400-450 on stock block with a good tune but of course it not going to last forever. i would think that the piston rings will give out prematurely but nothing to crazy if you lay off the gas a bit. say out of top speed pulls and you will be ok for a while.

Dude go get your block ready cuz thats not gonna last at all.
So what secrets are you hiding, different pistons and rods? Good luck with that power and we need to get it on video especially if those guys wanna run this weekend.

You know that thing is gonna blow when you are cruising in the middle of nowhere and there aint no cell phone service. Then your gonna have to hitch hike, hope you dont wind up with some ex-con trucker whom likes to give it as much as he receives it...

I dont think its crazy at all, to go against the crowd I hope this works for you and you can prove the naysayers wrong for doubting what you are attempting to do. I'll also be the first to say thank you for doing this, good luck.

keep up the good work! I always appreciate courage and pioneering, crazy but a fun move..
do you have the ability to run 2 maps for 2 boost settings? If I were you, I'd run a daoly 10 psi map 93 octane, then a 15 psi 100 octane with water/alcohol...
take it to the track man!!!

why is everybody saying it gonna blow?
who know for sure what is the limit of stock block?
Nissan said something but did they actually push that much power in the engine and watch it blow?
i mean 1 year ago samething been said about 400-450whp right?
