I have the cooling mod that prevents the overheating in cylinders 7 and 8 so that shouldnt be a problem and I also have a heat exchanger and a resovior to ice it down before I race

from what ive seen the 2.2 make more power than the new version .. except maybe a little bit less than the 2.8... but the times seem about the same - and the 2.2 sounds badass... if you want more switch it up to whipple imo, or centri or turbo - but im baised

okay, but don't make me that promise too fast. and i guarantee u that u will never get 25 psi out of a 2.2 kb. maybe that is what u have read, but i doubt that u have the experience that i do. the 2.2 cannot boost 25 psi. Again, what cooling mods do u have?? Guarantee u the motor will not last long like that.

predictions:

cylinder #7 will loose compression from damaged piston caused by localized overheating or detonation in that cylinder
You must read a lot on svtperf. The cooling mod is not the great savior. If you have a detonation, nothing is going to save your pistons, no matter what kind of pistons your running. 20 psi is not the max out of a 2.2. I don't know where your getting your info from, but your wrong.

yeah, show me a kennebell 2200 cobra with more than 20 lbs of boost! even dan's silver cobra, the fastest kennebell 2.2 in the country, was not more than 20 psi.

When we developed the BLOWZILLA 2200 (2.2L) kit, we felt it would satisfy 99% of our street/strip customers. Run 15-18 psi on the street and 19-24 psi at the weekend drags with race gas (octane depends on boost).

Lol you are the all knowing!! Kenne bell wouldnt claim it can run that much boost if it really cant. People would be damaging blowers all the time. But I know you can never be wrong about anything.
