[QUOTE="SlowSVT, post: 11822350, member: 20202"] Your engine is on borrowed time running 93 octane on a car pullied for 20 lbs. The fact the boost level dropped with headers doesn't make any difference. All it will take is a bad batch of gas or a lean injector and you have yourself a blown motor, lots of down time and a $6000 repair bill. A procharged engine may get away with it because it will only see boost 1/4 of the time your engine will. I can't count the number of times this scenario get repeated (one just bit the dust a few hours ago :nonono:). Consider a J&S Vampire. Might save your engine but I would still back the boost down so your engine lives longer. [/QUOTE]
