What are the power levels of the composite, with arp studs, and proper installing and cleaning?

Good tune and NO detonation they would be quite high, back in the stone age I ran my 3.4L Toyota V8 with NO IC, Pump fuel, meth injection, really low comp and 30 psi on Composite gaskets.

I'm currently running a toyota composite gasket boosting 15psi no problems. Have also wondered composite gaskets limits. I think almost all mkiii supra owners feel that a MLS gasket is the only solution to there BHG problems and replace it with one and find them selfs more frustrated since they half assed the job and have to do it all over again.

Happens here ALL the time and from the outside looking in it's really frustrating!

This is why I gave the advice I did and questioned Thorpedo's post, NOT that he's 100% wrong just that he's overestimating the abilities and skells of some of our younger mmebers and it WILL end in failure/tears and yet another dead Supra....
