pull the dizzy cap off and all the plugs i.e cas plug, plug going to coil etc and spray wd40 in them, dry em then try
As for boost you could go 10-12 psi but the issue is fuel and the n/a ecu/injectors wont be happy with much more then that or even that, the motor however isnt a prblem what so ever

how do you know about water in the dizzy and leads? mate katsas on the money and i clearly remember a vl katsa had back in the day i washed his bay or should i say drowned and spent a good hour on the bay with degreaser and high pressure, and seeing kasta stress for about an hour after that becuase the car wouldnt start and ran like a pig when it did i did the wd40 trick and worked a treat ive done it many times in the middle of the bush with a patrol after drowning it. katsa never let me near one of his bays with degreeser or high pressure after that
