Oh, it drives fine...drove it a couple miles the other day. It just doenst like going into boost....lots of oil smoke!

It doesn't have to blow up and you knowing it was going to doesn't change anything.

HufferSS, I was told the same thing - its on borrowed time at these powers... I just need it to last the summer / fall then like these guys -- LSX time.

It does not have to be on borrowed time at that boost level....the tune can make it live, or the tune can make it die....but 7psi is completely survivable....unless of course you lean it out to give the owner a big number to make them happy. If that happens then of course...the engines will blow.....like Bulls, like Calberts.....see a trend?

Asylum · 06-17-2012, 08:04 PM

I see the trend, and I am aware of the potential hazard.. I have been dealing with SPi before Calbers even knew about them, in fact I referred Calbert to them because he was inlove with my car the sound, the everything..

I can't comment as to the conversations they have had with SPi (I believe Bull is unrelated to SPi) but speaking strictly on my behalf.

My numbers aren't BS.. my numbers are factual, Bull even confirmed its more than doable... but please understand all I ask when I walk in the door is make sure its as reliable as possible.... from what I understand most tuners and again I make no mistake about being uneducated...

or at least some tuners go all out lean without having to pull timing (i have no idea if I worded that right) but it sounds like something that SPi practicses..

I do know that Calbert preaches about always wanting more power.... more power more wpower.. and hey good on him, but for me.. I need reliable.

I cant afford to goto the track and have something break, I have other 'more important' priorities that can't afford to be interupted..

I wish I had the financial backing to do the track, but sadly.. I don't :(
- one day though!

JLE58 · 06-17-2012, 08:26 PM

Yeah I'm sure you made 30 more hp than bull with that smaller cam..Either way I could care less even it made 2000 hp it's still on a dyno. I dyno my car down the 1320.... Either way cool car and good luck with it!

Are you Eric?

Chris82xx · 06-17-2012, 08:46 PM

I feel like chiming in if it makes any difference. With just my S/C and meth kit I made 641 rwhp, @ 10psi, after I was retuned with the LT's I made 684 and to be honest, I don't really know what my boost level was or even is right now.

carbon8 · 06-17-2012, 09:11 PM

It's 10psi isn't it.

I like how I was just asking and I get a know'it all but doesn't explain himself and doesn't even know his hp just asked a question didn't need a smart ass remark

Chris82xx · 06-17-2012, 09:28 PM

Not too sure. However, everything else with the motor is still stock and I have no complaints. I'm about to put 5K miles on the setup. I'm hoping before I hit the "trend", I'll be able to have ECS build a kickass motor and upgrade to a Ysi trim blower.

villan2 · 06-17-2012, 09:28 PM

Thanks all for the help I was just curious on what people would say And thought

Chris82xx · 06-17-2012, 09:29 PM

btw, to the OP, I know you asked about ProCharger, but if it makes any difference, I have a Paxton.

It's a Canadian thing. Not too bright and will run and hide. He's an idiot that shouldn't even been given the time or day. I have respect for anyone that uses JRE because I've seen on here that he has proven success, however he can't say shit about my car because I used a completely different tuner. Let's see hime say something about that.

villan2 · 06-17-2012, 09:43 PM

I was talking about assylum being the smart ass sorry my question wasn't good enough for u

camslambam · 06-17-2012, 09:47 PM

Man the mods are quick...

That thread had the potential to be even better than this one.

Still amazes me why he is bad mouthing JRE....? I was the only one to come out and call bs on his 700rwhp claim at 6.5psi and at once he started going after the "jre team." Then his numbers gradually started going down.

villan2 · 06-17-2012, 09:51 PM

Well I guess I'll go with 9'psi or 10 psi for now then in winter might install Lsx 454 crate engine

I just got my 8rib conversion on friday and was pleasantly surprised to find it came with a 3.3. Hopefully will be seeing 10psi on the maggie.

carbon8 · 06-17-2012, 10:08 PM

I think 10 psi would be a great stoping point. Just make sure you have a good safe tune.

Detoxx03 · 06-18-2012, 12:12 AM

638 here at 7lbs with a D-1SC, blower cam, and lt's in the 90* humid Louisiana heat so Asylums numbers don't surprise me at all.

OP I wouldn't go over 10psi on the stock bottom end.

Just shy of 700 turned into 660.

Ahh.... MAX boost is 32psi.
Now, perhaps a more intelligent question would be
How much boost is 'safe' to run...

Asking the second question is going to cause all sorts of 'opinions'. but in short.

I personally am running just shy of 700 on a LS3 stock block, upgraded cam rockers headers type setup... @ 6.5lbs of boost on a M6.. stock clutch, driveshaft, rear end..... everything..

And that is - WITH the D1SC -.

Make sure you set to 1080p... once you start viewing..

This has nothing to do with FI, but are you filming with a fisheye lens?
