"Safe" boost levels for stock bottom end? - Page 3 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

When things break inside the blower within 10k miles and scatters in your motor. I think it is easier to blow up motor.

E85, squash and had to upgrade to the id1300s because the id850s couldn't keep up with the demand needed with e85

how many miles in that year of driving? what power numbers you putting down? Thanks

Put 4k miles on the car last year.

No clue on numbers, never put it on a dyno. But it spun all first gear and still went a 10.4@137. Leaving at idle

Just rolled 60,000 miles on my Procharger. No issues at all. Daily driver with only 8 lbs.

What all is done to your car and have you dynoed it at 8 psi

2010SSRSM6 · 12-23-2014, 06:56 AM

I've been running just under 12#'s for years and I've got over 72k miles on mine now. It's all about the tune. Keep the knock away and you're golden.

I don't really think that's a fair comparison. Someone making 919 on a stock bottom end has IAT/EGT/combustion temps controlled really well...throwing everything a Maggie has at an engine could result in some really over the top IAT numbers, which could start causing problems at a much lower power level.

Im at 13.3 with a maggie and no meth...no issues...but Im going to use meth once I pulley down and 8 rib IW pulleys.

All the installation, tuning and dyno work was done by Jason Medlin at Procharger. It made just under 500 rwhp with stock manifolds and axle back JBA exhaust, since then I added long tube headers. Ed Wright from fast chips made fuel adjustments for the headers but hasn't been Dyno'd again, this is all while I lived in Tulsa which is only 4 hrs from Procharger. I now live in Concord, NC and planning in taking it to PCMofNC this late winter early spring for a complete retune. If you're interested call Procharger and ask for Jason Medlin
