deezelnut what is your engine setup? cam, compression ect
the cam is a comp cams cam. the specs are 218/224 duration, and .55" lift. i went with 1.7 roller rockers. i am told this is a good blower cam. compression is stock except for .030" shaved heads. i have a boxed SSM upper manifold and ported and polished lower without IMRC. for headers i have MAC long tubes. mid-pipe is 3" custom X. cat-back is a 3" MAC for 99-04 GTs with 4" gibson tips. what else do you want to know? redline is set at 5500 rpms.
so compression is stock except .030" shaved heads? dude that is alot to shave heads and usually requires intake spacers to seal everything up. you need .030" shorter pushrods too.

stock compression is already about 9.4:1 and .030" shaved would put you about 10.6:1 and running a blower? i can see why it makes 325rwhp at 7psi but that thing would be detonating like a bitch with that high of compression. you brother must be a tuning genius

also with those heavy breathing stage 3 heads and intakes combined with that cam why only 5500rpm?. even on a stock bottom end that thing can easily rev to 6800 with that setup. 6500 would be a good redline

i don't know if i buy that. sorry
i don't know why he has it at only 5500 rpms. i would guess to keep the boost down until i can get the stuff to rebuild the bottom end.i got the heads shaved from SSM. they came with the powerpak. and you can run up to 11:1 compression with 10 PSI and a good tune. BMWs new 335i run 10.5:1 compression and 9 PSI.
you are full of $hiiiit. 11.0:1 will not be safe at 10psi whatsoever. where you got that info is beyond me. there is not way to get a correct fuel/air ratio at thet compression and boost. i am beginning to think you are matthockey32. no one else is that full of crap. dude i have been around engines for along time and used to build turbo buicks. the ford was based off the the buick. do you think the buick can handle 11.0:1 and 10psi?? not even close. most turbo buicks are 7.5:1 and 22-25 psi max. some venture to 30psi but they are on a ragged edge. even with a stage 2 block.

cut the crap dude. you either need mental help or need some education on how engines and forced induction works

i can't remember if it was 5.0 mustang or MM&FF that had an article on an sn95 4v cobra that was running 11:1 comp and 10 PSI. i will try to find it so i can take a pic and post it.

maybe witrh an o-ringed block,FAST Fuelmanagement,intercooler+water/methanol injection,and 120lb/hr injectors. even then it will be real hard to run that kind of boost especially on a 4V cobra engine of the pre 99 era. they don't like boost even when built up. #8 cylinder winds up having core shift and ruins the rod bearings on #8

since when does BMW use booost?
they have actually used it for a long time. the original was the BMW 2002. they just didn't bring the cars to the US. check it out in the new Car and Driver. it's on page 54.
they only made 1672 of them for racing only and euro limited street use

BMW for the most part has been an NA street useage company
