what setup for sohc to keep up with high end HP

k, i got a 00ex with greddy turbo kit with vortech fpr and missing link and apexi WS exhaust... the car pulls real good on stock boost but not enough to beat a v6, gsr's, on long run... they usually get me on top end.... or i'll get a bad start and its very hard to catch up sometimes... how many pounds of boost should i have in order to keep up with GSR and vtec preludes. and what kind of set up should i go? im very practical.. i just want something that will keep up or beat GSR and others.... i used my car daily so i really cant go all out and cash is also an issue... but whats the best route for me? thanks

u should be able to beat an I/H/E gsr. i did all the time....well at least on the streets anyway......bring it up to 8 psi. that is the safest MAX on stock internals.....goodluck man

thermal- what kind of fuel delivery system should i have with the 8 psi?

yeah i think the car can beat the gsr in a 1/4 mile but longer than that, the 4th gear on those mofo pulls real nice.....

thanks....

I was wacking Si's and GS-R's on 5psi alone.. should be more than enough. Work on the driving/shifting/launching aspect of things, always best to get you're driving down before you tinker with the car.

You should have no problem spanking Gsr's. Espcially at the top end. When i race em i usually take em out good at the end of third gear.
