> ok so if LS at 10 psi=300whp safely what does b16 at what psi equal what horsepower safely? this isn’t a track car it’s my dd and i want to have a low boost setting for everyday and one for going really fast. i met the kid who has 407 on a b16, he’s running 15psi and he told me he only drives it like once a week. what are the power limits on a gt3065? won’t a gt35 make more power at the same psi? and isn’t more psi harder on the motor?

Its a toss up. If you are willing to put up with the lag then the 35r is good to go.

But a general rule is, if you dont plan to push it to its full potential (in your case you dont plan to ) then go one step down. You will hate a big turbo on pump gas and low boost.

Trust me, there are plenty of people putting down 420-500 on gt30’s and they spool at lower RPMS…
