You can't be serious. I wish someone would have told me that my pistons weren't going to make it with over 2 years @ 12 psi from a blower and turbo setups. Plus a few passes at 16 psi on the bone stock longblock. Boost does not break the pistons, detonation does. We pushed my car into the 10s because we were told by many that the pistons or rods couldn't take it. This has been proven by people that know how to make alot of safe power.
