I would of said up the boost until I blew my engine. I honestly think your better enjoying the 500rwhp you have now for a while so your not pushing it too hard rather than making more power for a short time and then waiting for a rebuild. It get's expensive and I've really missed my car in the last year it's been down. If you leave it how it is now you can save up money for a rebuild while your driving it around and enjoying it. Then once you are ready to build it stronger you could always up the boost and see how long it lasts but at least your ready for the rebuild.

I've been thinking of a cam very similar to that one. Maybe Patrick can explain why he chose that grind over these?

Lol, good luck with that. I can't blame you, I did the same thing. I guess sometimes you just have to learn for yourself. It will be a fast car, enjoy it while it lasts.
