high compression + high boost can equal problems in the future. There are guys that do do it, but its only a matter of time.

yeah that is true, but you'll spend a fortune. And why would you want to buy a whole blower setup and only run 8psi. Youd be spending what did you say 3k for that h/c/i setup...then another 4k for a blower setup. All that to reach your s/b's limit??

yeah the smaller the pulley the higher the boost. But like we said, i wouldnt go much higher than 8psi with that high of compression.

I'd savemore money and go with atwin turbo@ 933-1100 HP. You'd blow away any chevy, ricer and pretty much everyeone else at a stop light.

Ludicrous speed...

^ can't argue with that.

Only thing is if i were to go that route I would without a doubt build my motor up to actually be able to see those turbos potential. they will be barely breaking a sweat on that stock shortblock.
