00TurboTA

i have a Boosted TA, with Lt's, and a trt FMIC and a tune soon and i was just wondering when the internals will give out, i have heard the crank is able to support 900+, but i was wondering if dish pistons and new rods would be a good idea?

The crank might, but the other two won't. Most any hypereutectic piston gives up the ghost in the 475-575whp range. How well the tune is preventing too much combustion heat and detonation is pretty much the variable that determines the exact point where she goes.

Some here will tell you they can make over 600rwhp and what not, but thats just going to happen a time or three... then your 900 crank is no longer 1 piece..

I've heard 500-575 on stock internals, but thats pushing it.
I'd go with 500rwhp just for safety. Crank may be good for that but i don't think the Powder metal rods would be too happy to try.

Yeah i am in the process of intalling my front mount intercooler, and then i am gonna get a tune for down here and i will have some numbers then its gonna be close and really tell me if i need to get forged internals and the shitty thing is that i think my 10 bolt is going out
