[hiboostmsp88]

thanks man...

[mgerst1]

are you running the stock SMIC? i have inquired about these and they are designed for use with the stock SMIC

[hiboostmsp88]

yes i still have the stock smic...

[hiboostmsp88]

I have another question.. is it safe to run 10psi with our stock smic?

[Packerfan]

With a good tune you can get away with it.

[hiboostmsp88]

so basically what your saying is if i leave my car the way it is and just turn up the boost it won't be a good idea?

[mgerst1]

yes, it will not be a good idea

Why not? My car ran like a 9.5/10:1 afr untuned at 10lbs.(with a fmic) That was with a 19lb spool on a bad wga. You should be able to run 10. Although if you blow it up i'm not responsible. Get a wideband and make your life worry free.

[hiboostmsp88]

ok so I see that this kit clamps suck and couplers 2..... So where is a good place to get these 2 parts?

[mikeski]

turbohoses in my opinon are the way to go... if you leave the stock smic you will feel the heatsoak more if you turn up the boost. I would recommend getting the customMSP SMIC as well as hardpipes before turning it up.
