Im about to drop in a s14 sr and im going the ARC side mount route and was wondering what kind of boost pressure it can handle? I hear a bunch a different numbers ranging 14 psi to 20psi. Any ideas?

Its still a side mount...I wouldnt wanna push it pass 10 psi during the summer when its hot.

Never heard anyone talk about the PSI for them. When I had mine it was good at about 10. The common consensus is that they are good about 300hp.

psi isnt the problem for them, heat dissipation is. Im sure u can boost it up to 50 psi, but im sure it wont be as effective after after running it for so long.

I'd just make sure you run the ducting for the side mount, when I had the OEM side mount on my car, the ducting made a huge difference on the intercooler temp.

As long as you have air being properly routed to it, I'm sure you will be fine.

Thats good to hear, too bad i dont have the original ducting but i'll probably fab something instead. thanks!
