As I said, the car pictured has completely stock internals, Hydra EMS and associated sensors and injectors needed, custom pulleys, custom or modified intake manifold. It's been proven that you can run about 9 psi with that supercharger setup on stock internals before it pushes the limits and starts blowing ring lands. If you really want to look into it, there are about 6 years and tons of threads. I'd suggest searching the simple terms "supercharge(d)", "turbocharged", etc. That's what I did. I've probably read through almost every thread on this forum related to forced induction. And trust me, it will take you a few weeks.

For more boost, then you will need to get lower compression ratio forged pistons, H beam forged rods, etc, etc.
