Theres a couple of guys over at svtperformance with 2.8L KB's putting down 700-800 rwhp. Dont know how long they can last on that, but they can hold that for a little while or pretty long depending on how you drove it and how much you stayed in the boost all the time.

25lbs of boost is pushing a stock engine. So is 800rwhp but I guess it depends on how much you drive it. Its definately possible.

Not sure about PSI, but I don't see a lot of people pushing over 700+.

Thats correct, not many people in terminators will see that. The KB and Whipple will get you there. Twin Turbo will as well. But for how long they last on the stock block over 700 rwhp... well, thats kinda pushing it.

I disagree with that strongly. What would you consider maintaining correctly?
