He has had a good deal of experience with GTRs and GTS-Ts, having owned both and been around quite a few quick ones.

I'm not trying to flame, but you just agreed with me, not razor. Razor chose to say, and I quote, "Remember the RB25DET block is NOT as strong as the RB26DETT block, nor is it going to handle the same power levels."
You agreed with me, they use the same block which means that the RB25DET block is no weaker than the RB26DETT block, and that both blocks can handle the exact same power levels because they are the same block.....this is not judging by internals.
For 20 psi, you could run all day depending on how you tune your engine. I don't recommend it at all, but I know it's been done. I wouldn't run mine that high for an extended amount of time without building my engine first. Things that you would want to get to run 20 psi for short periods of time (such as drag races or street races) would be larger injectors, FMIC, boost controller, larger turbo, and a fuel pump.
Thanks for agreeing with me. It doesn't take owning cars to know about them, it takes working, dedication, and research on cars with a passion to become an expert. I am not yet an expert, but I am on my way of learning the RB motors forwards and backwards.
