9psi, stock guts. Driven by a grandmother to the grocery store on Sundays. Or was it, driven like it was stolen among the cones on any given Sunday?

It's tuned to the rich side, but on Ultra 93, the Hydra shows no signs of registered knock. I don't know how long it will last (and I anticipate changing the engine someday), but there's nothing kind about the way I treat it.

Roots = heat for sure. If you're doing the popular Impreza side-mount w/intercooler gig, you can probably do fine, but I'm a little leery about the idea of an inverted, intercooler free setup. With a twin-screw on 9psi uncooled, you're looking at 180*F going in as it is.
