But, thought I would start a money pit since more parts will be coming soon. Current plans are to boost my iron block NPI headed motor with a single 70mm turbo. I will keep boost at a low 6-9psi. (what would be a good psi with stock internals?) Also will replace the head gasket for good measure. I am gonna try to do all the work myself, hopefully I don't run into any problems that I have to take it to a shop. Future plans are to build a teksid block on the side with all forged internals and boost the hell out of it <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />Parts purchased:  * single 70mm turbo  * P.I.
