Anyway, I know that these little engines are fairly stout and will take some punishment before the surrender.
Boost is good, just don't go too far. If you really want to push it, you'd better have a good intercooler and/or water/alky injection.

With your knowledge of the Merc 3.2, do you think (now forget price for a moment!!!), that the Kleeman super charger is a good answer as it is a straight bolt on? No internals mods, 7 lbs. boost and with thier matching, chip 350 hp. They also say that their intercooler is superior to the SRT6 unit. What's your thoughts?
