Turbo Qs

As I've been reading everyones' threads on it, i still feel incredibly noob-ish.

And i'm not exactly looking for strictly 100% accurate numbers or figures, but...


Could someone compile a sort of list, or something, showing how much boost yields approx what horsepower, and what engine mods you'd have to do in order to NOT have your car explode?

Obviously it varies car to car, even with the same engine, and wear and tear is going to vary, thus causing premature breakdown of other parts that might not be listed...

But i figured it could be a decent general DO-ALL reference for new members (or old members new to turbos) to get a decent idea of what they are looking to do, or how MUCH of a project it really is.

it would also be a nice addition to the wiki, if it turns out well...
