Hey y'all. Now this may seem like a stupid and/or rediculous idea but...My dream is to build a twin turbo cherokee. Now i realise that dream will cost lots more money than i have haha. Anyway i've been googling like an idiot and found some single turbo jeeps. Now i am selling my 240sx and i do have experience with boost and the gains/consequences of the evil addiction. Now i am wondering if a stock 4.0 HO motor could handle a simple 8psi without blowing up the internals. i know these motors are bulletproof but they prolly aren't boost proof haha. In any case any feedback or input by jeep peeps with experience with this would be graciously excepted. Thank you.
