Its a decent amount of boost. Keep in mind, we're talking PUMP gas too! The 3.4L whipple is incredibly efficient... For example:

My friends Saleen (eaton supercharged)

ambient temp: 70 degrees
IAT: 170 degrees

My Car

Ambient temp: 70 degrees
IAT: 92 degrees...

Also keep in mind that the 3.4L Whipple can support over 30 psi, of course on race gas... My car was built for it.
Any reason you went with the cost of billet considering it has no strength advantages to good 4340? And I'm a big fan of the Whipple's, my cars built for boost I just wanted to enjoy n/a for a while

I'm very happy to be driving it, lol...

Oliver Billet Rods are pretty much the TOP OF THE LINE "stuff"... Proven strength over any forged rod...

I hear ya. I'm in the industry myself and we test independently, I could prove otherwise BUT it doesn't take away from the awesome-ness of your car sweet ride man.

i hated the break in tune i had in my car. had the rex limiter set to 4k so that i could not get too heavy into the boost. the real stuff is alot more fun. I wish i had gone stroker. it was somehting i thought about for a while but i did not do it because of cost. your car sounds prettty good too. One of the guys i know has a 3.4 whipple stroker with a shot of N20 and the car cann move. i am sure yours will be hauling the mail once you get it dialed in.
