Are my mods safe ?

K ive got a rebuilt block with 680 CC secondarys, 3 inch downpipe and y pipe and two rice mufflers. Racing beat FCD and a 87 turbo unit. How safe are the mods ? what could I do to improve or be even safer ( whipping out a grand CDN for a SAFC isnt really a option)

Are you running a cat? How much boost are you making at WOT?

Run the highest octane gas you can find...try to stay away from oxygenated gas.
