How much can the internals take in a SC400?

Would putting a turbo with only about 5-6psi hurt anything on the internals or the 1UZFE engine? Would it still be reliable? How much are we looking at here in terms of purchasing & labor for this set-up?

I cant answer your question about a turbo, but i know there is a company that sells a supercharger kit, you can find it on intelexual.net

you'll be fine @ 5.

I drove mine for months at 6, went up to 12+ and blew up the first motor.

tranny will go @ 350+ or so...depending on your driving style.

costs depends on who you get to do it
