Only one way to find out. run a 150 through it, the progressivly move it up in size. you will then find the answer to your question.

Sorry for the dumb reply, but probably not much. I wouldnt chance it.

i got 153k and spray, no problems just got to do it right. Also everytime i throw in the 150's i know i am taking a chance.. you could run a 75 no problems doing it right assuming your car is in good running condition.

fastassta you are my hero for spraying 175 on a nearly 150k car! do you have an A4 or m6? I am not terribly worried about the motor cause i have delteq,colder plugs,good wires,and yada yada for safety but when i spray more than 100 i am sure that there is going to be some burning bands/clutches in my 12 year old automatic transmission.
