Ok here is the setup... stock 2002 LS1

i dont want to open the engine yet... so please no crank, heads, piston and rod suggestions... i am windering what boost i can safely run on an stock LS1 on 98 octane (ninety-eight) i have a large intercooler

and what power should i expect (buy injectors to feed)
and lastly... will this fit under a g-body hood???

10-12 psi is the most I've seen last assuming no detonation. The octane certainly helps as well as a good efficient intercooler and a proper tune.

I've seen the stock GTO's at 350 hp come in at 525-550 rwhp with a good twin turbo kit, stock engine.
