All I'll say is Cast Iron.

I don't think anyone has ever had their block crack due to too much boost. Hahn pushes about 28psi in their 10s Eclipse. I'm sure the block can physically handle more than 30psi; but at that point, you'll need 176 octane gas and some pretty sophisticated engine management tools.

ok good, well im running 20psi now with no tunning at all
i know all my mods will hold and are strong! im just curious how much i can run with hahn portfueler kit with my stock injectors and another set of 550cc's i got before i go lean?think im gonna throw it up to like 26psi soon

Beaded pipes and T-bolt clamps.
