That just looks badass. I see you have same style as Paul

Thanks, I like show as much as the go

Yes, I believe Andy called it an "Old School" style NW TB :-) ADM went down this road in back in 2009 with the Cassel (sp?) Car - his first 1000rwhp maggie/nos setup.

No worries I have you covered.

Heads get dropped in the efficiency category...like headers...you factor in boost and octane and make benefit or not of the heads,intake, headers...it can all net better power.
this is my understanding only...not gospel. tell me if I'm wrong...I'll listen.

Please don't say adds 'displacement'. That sounds like a ricers way of thinking. Lets say it crams more air in the combustion chamber. Displacement of an engine NEVER changes.

Yup. I made a thread with pics in the ls3/l99 engine section.

Thanks, I'll check it out!

Kurt Urban once said to me over 10 years ago, that an easy way to look at boost is this...

At 15 psi you are doubling the amount of air going into the engine. So if you make 400hp at the engine, you could conceivably at 15 psi make 800hp.

If you make 500hp at the engine, at 10 psi you might make 830hp at the engine.

My friends 2002 WS6 has run 30 lbs of boost on top of a built 427... It goes 195mph in the 1/4 at 3290 raceweight. Let's say he makes 600hp at the engine, at 30 psi it's 1800 hp. This way of thinking about it sort of works, though there a lot of variables.

One variable is that at a certain point any power adder itself becomes a restriction. Pushing more air (or I guess "charge") through a pipe inevitably can lead to backpressure.

I'm sure Graham is an expert of backpressure, pushing a 76mm turbo to run 8.5's.
