ive got a turbocharged 4.2l v6

i wouldnt push any more than 8psi. 10psi ive heard is fine but you may run into issues with the upper intake unless you have the one piece similar to the 97-98 f150 or windstar.

i dont know what the 2000 intake looks like but my 03 has a split clamshell type of composite intake.

if u want to run 15-20 u need a built block. ive also seen dyno sheets of built 4.2l v8's pushing 15+ psi with like 450rwhp and 500 rwtq. but that guy since sold his truck and i now own his turbo kit.

you want 6psi to be safe.... 15-20 would blow your heads to the moon.
