You can run five pounds safely on the stock internals with our twin turbo system. The DMCH camshafts are mild enough to take boost without issues. This does require a EFI upgrade as the stock K jet no longer fits with the plenum update.

You would have to give up the headers which is a big part of the Stage II upgrade. The camshafts are not optimized for forced aspiration. It should work but because you are limited by the stock pistons and no intercooler you aren't going to get as much as you may want. When trying to get more out of a motor there are a lot of things you can do but you must temper your enthusiasm with the question, "How much do I get and what will it cost"? The easy way is to ask how many HP per dollar and compare. Very quickly you hit the "Wall of diminishing returns". It gets harder and harder and more expensive to get any more HP.

Interesting Josh, kind of horsepower with that be roughly?

Thanks for helping me understand that. Definitely more complicated than I first thought.
