| anything CAN blow up. it's all about the tune and fuel delivery to match. |

| Of course you can blow it. Careful though, that model is known to cum a lot. Just be ready for when it finishes. Hope you're a swallower. |

| 15psi is about the max as long as it is tuned right and you got the right fuel delivery going to it.. And a big intercooler.. |

| Do you know what turbo you plan to use? 15 psi on a tiny turbo is different then 15 psi on a giant turbo... |

| its hardly even worth putting on the car if youre looking for performance yes you will need to change the ecu, or have it chipped if it is an obd1 ecu you will need a proper tune in order for the car to run correctly and last a while but in all honesty, i dont think id waste my time with that turbo |
