how much boost
I'm looking to put either a supercharger or turbo on my 02 ws6. how much boost is safe to run without harming the motor? The motor has heads and cam, its a trick flow top end kit. A few other things here and there, but nothing on the lower half of the motor. I have 422rwh and 416tq. Looking for info and tips on how to get more!

depending on your current CR with your heads and cam setup usually the limits on the stock shortblock are 7-8 psi. Id say if your heads are milled and you have higher compression then 5-6 psi max would be what I would go with. At 422 rwhp NA you would be looking at over 500 rwhp at 5-6 psi and over 550 rwhp with 7-8 psi. I would say your best bet would be to go with a D1SC kit from EPP. Complete kit with fuel system upgrades and their service, cant beat it!
