How much boost will a 5.3 take
I'm sure there's a thread here somewhere but I'm on my phone and couldn't find it. I've seen the 4.8s take 20lbs+ so I'm thinking of starting off with 10lbs and 93/meth.
What kind of luck has everyone had, I don't beat on the truck much and it's only drive on the weekend.
