well keep in mind you don't need to set boost to 700+ HP onw could choose to set 3lbs probably around 640hp, and the drives should live, maybe a little longer:ernaehrung004::cool-smiley-026:

Most likely bump to sportmasters to handle the new power.

You need to consider your drives as well. More HP is a great thing as long as it doesn't destroy other parts.

Alot of guys make a living rebuilding blown drives. Same guys that gave you more power to start with.

XR comes standard with a 600sci, so you should be fine up to around 600-650hp:ernaehrung004:

I have a 38 with 600s ITS sportmasters and lost 2 uppers in 125 hrs the 42 pokerrun should weigh about the same. That sounds about right no more than 650.

Do a search on 42PR drive issues.

They have a rep for being hard on drives with stock 525's, I think your asking for trouble putting more power to them.

Maybe look into upgrading to Teague Platinums or the high end Imco, if you want to spend the $ , re-rig with #6's.
