There is a universal turbo kit selling right now for like 250 american dollars and i was wanting to know if i put it on my 2.2 and only ran it at 10 to 15 psi if it will kill my motor? It is called a V-band T3/T4 turbo kit

IMO, anything more than 10 PSI on the stock 2.2 is too much. I personally wouldn't push more than 8 PSI. Compression ratio is too high for anything over 10 lbs. $250??? that's cheap..real cheap. Is it used? Ebay? You have a link?

lmao.
last i checked, i didnt notice that you had a 5sfte, so how would you REALLY know whats safe on a 5s, and whats not?
other than what you've read on the intranets.
i run ~ 17-18psi, every day.
19+at the track.
wink.gif
i've build more 5sfte's than you've prolly ever seen.
read my sig, my 5sfte makes 300+whp.
i've run 13.6 @ 108mph..what have YOU done with your 5s?

ohh wait, youve got a 3rd gen swap.
i've done a couple of those too. and a couple 2nd gen swaps.
big deal.
thumbsdown.gif

still think i fail or am trying to be funny? rolleyes.gif
