How many LBS of boost would the stock crank in the 03-04 RX-1 Hold up to? Would you need to put a new crank in? How about pistons?... Any info on how to build a turbo 4-stroke 4 cylinder yammie would be great ( for future references... Really looking at some with blown motors to rebuild )
 

Crank is no probs. You should run Wiseco 10:1 pistons which lets you run more boost on lower octane fuel. For running 14+ pounds of boost get a set of Carillo forged rods.The gt 25 r blower that most people use is good to about 15 pounds boost & anything higher get the gt28r. Basically pistons are good enuff for most guys but if you plan to go nutz on boost get the rods.
 
I'm not building it. My dad is.. He is very good with building custom stuff. Check out the last custom jet engine he made.. Flew once..

Oh ya. I also forgot about the pics from RC. Hangout
