How much more than 20 psi do you plan on running....

Dog down low is far from the truth, for example, dropping from 10:1 to 8:5:1 on a b head 4v base to base you will lose 20ish peak horsepower, and about 8 horse and 8 foot pounds of torque throughout the powerband under 4k RPMS, definatly doesn't dog anything. With a new fuel system I plan on boosting up to 700-800 rwhp in the future. so if your 2v is boosting 20 pounds and not breaking 600 obviously its gonna take alot more than 20psi to break into the 700 range. Any big name tuner will say the same thing, if you have goals for big numbers 8:5:1 is ideal for large boost applications.

When running a high compression motor and alot of boost eventually your gonna hit the wall and need more than 93 pump gas to operate the car safely without detonation, and I don;t plan on running race gas or e85, ill stick to 93 and still make the numbers.

Dude you need to talk to some big name tuners and builders. I'll be about 600rwhp THROUGH A AUTO at 18 to 20 psi. Since when is 9.5 :1 or even 10:1 a "high compression motor"? I've been in 4 8.5 :1 boosted setups and yes, I could tell the difference down low. 12:1 is high, 11:1 is high...9.5 :1 or even 10:1....no not high by any means.

Go over on corral and talk to tons of guys who actually have crazy boosted setups and see what they think about cr and decent boosted setups. How do you plan on pushing 700hp? Through that little procharger and93 octane? I'd love to see that

Y u mad?

97stanger

not mad at all, but Ive been through two boosted builds and when misinformation is out there its misleading. Just saying

uberstang1

Why the hell do you get so damn defensive when someone doesnt agree with you? I never ven mentioned 9:1 compression ratios ive been talking about 10:1 and 8:5:1 ? My little procharger? When did i say im using a p600b to run 700 hp?????

Ube...hes mad bro

Mike it seems like your taking this personal for some odd reason, my comment about 600 horsepower and 20psi of boost was intended to be a stab or something but that seems like how you saw it, I have spoken to many tuners and the setup I plan on running will consist of a ported/polished cammed b head setup and a procharger F1 running 25-28 pounds of boost, to achieve that in a safe manner on pump gas I have been instructed to keep an 8:5:1 compression ratio. Running that blower and big boost on a 10:1 compresion ratio couldnt be achievable safely on a pump gas tune. But this isn't an overnight build as I have alot of others things on my plate personally, as far as this year goes as long as my little procharger setup makes me in the 500rwhp range I'll be fine with that for a season or two down numedia for street legal drag brackets, I don't street race the damn thing and it only goes to car shows and the drag strip, so who knows if it runs good ETs as it sits I might even leave it alone in favor of a new fox body N/A build. From running 13.10s-13.30s NA with a stock 97 cobra engine I was satisified, prior to my gear selection last year I was able to run 12.20s-12.50s on a 420rwhp setup, now this year with a 28 inch slick some heavy suspension changes and another 60-80- rwhp i mgiht be happy where it lands if its on the low end of 11s which is plenty for numedia.
