If you want to try and send a piston through the head, I am sure it will be alright.

Hey man just spend the money now to get it tuned because motor work will cost you $5000-$8000. So get her A.S.A.P. and I wouldn't drive you car because you are going to ended racing someone.

Keep it under 20psi and youll be ok,boost is boost.The problem is with a 35r your not making much power at 20psi so its a waste.

Huh? so your telling me that the amount of air coming out of the stock turbo at 20 psi is the exact same as the amount of air coming out of a 35R at 20 psi? I don't think that makes sense, or am I confused?

you should check out

yes 20 psi is 20psi but the volume of air from the 35r will be much greater

Exactly! A larger turbo is going to push more air at 20psi then a smaller turbo pushing 20 psi. Its all about volume.
