    Cobra guys

    I got a laugh the other day and have to ask. So what do "Cobra" owners label low boost as? I say low boost in general is under 12psi on a car, 12-15 is mild boost,15-18 is getting up there, 18+ is up there. Thing is i hear cobra guys saying i'm running low boost i'm only running 18psi+

    12 and below is low

    13-17 is medium.

    15 would be the max I would personally run on 91 octane. I would run 17 on 93 octane. This is with a twin screw.

    Anything above 17 requires more than 93 octane.

    I consider 21 PSI the max for a stock bottom end.

    Above 21 crazy boost.
