I originally intended to just be N/A since I went with 11:1 compression... I think low boost would be fine on the motor since it's fully built and balanced. The only thing I'm missing is a MAF upgrade and Fuel Return.

Definitely doable as other have stated. When I was getting my car tune adjusted there was a Supra with a 10:1 comp built motor and he ran 20psi on 91 octane to about 580ish whp. Living on the edge!

Just be careful, some high comp pistons are made differently than boost pistons. High comp pistons are generally intended for NA so they remove material anywhere they can to make the piston lighter. I'm not sure if that's true for the wiseco's and or any other vq high comp piston, but something to be weary of. Even low boost might punch a hole in the damn thing if it was designed for sub 500 crank hp pressure.

Give Wiseco a call and try to find out. They're super helpful.

Was talking with a couple people and they've hit 500+ whp on 11:1 comp wiseco's

Looks like I'm safe, I'm not trying to go above 500whp tbh.

Alright sounds like you're in the clear then.

Always tick every box twice, might be worth it to call wiseco still. I would personally if I were you.
