So basically as long as I get a good tune, keep the boost and horsepower down below 350 wheel and around 8 psi, and don't beat on the car all the time, I should be ok?

wow, thats almost not worth it. go for ETs not HP, the motor will probably last the same at 350rwhp as it will at 430rwhp if the tune is right. it will not however last forever. its eventually gunna let go. dont sit up here thinking the safest way to do it because in reality the safest way is to spend an extra 4k on a forged shortblock and have the guys at mph tune it(from my understanding they are the best). low boost=boring, not beating on the car all the time=gay because u defeated the purpose of adding the blower if your not gunna use it.

maybe my opinion isnt wanted, but its reality. just because u go over 400rwhp your motor isnt gunna tell u "im gunna blow" its gunna drive just as good as the tune allows it.

i dunno what he ended up getting it for, but it was a complete intercooled procharger kit, with the fmu and all hardware... and a near new headunit...

ya, it was a good deal...but I still gotta spend a lot of money on injectors, fuel pump, MAF, and a dyno tune.

Probably cost me another 700-800 dollars
