how much psi can a d16z6 handle on stock interenals and just a turbo and blowoff valve I know the z6 has a pretty stout bottom end and most engines can handle 4-6 but what about a dialy driver d16z6

don't quote me for this but i think your d16 could probably handle around 5 psi pretty safely, IF installed correctly. Also, if you invest in an intercooler, probably another 2 psi is possible. What kind of turbo you planning on getting? the apex'i was dyno'ed at 170 whp. Not bad.

11 psi non IC for 6 mos
12 psi IC for the rest
it was about 7-8 mos on A6
and now 4 mos on the ZC
(btw the a6 was sold and is in another car running strong w 230K++++ miles)
