I was at 12-13 psi which was about all the Maggie could do.
I will continue on with the story. I took the car to G-Force and they immediately noticed that the supertensioner was not set correctly. While I was there we began discussing future options for increasing horsepower. I currently have two limiting factors - a stock bottom end and maxed out air supply. The main mechanic began beating the F-1X drum but we also discussed the new TVS-2650 that will soon be coming out. The shop owner was pretty much against the Procharger F-1X at first because he said it was a full race set-up and I would have to upgrade the block before we could go that route. Hands down we all knew that the Procharger was capable of easily supporting 25 psi and > 1200 RWHP. When the shop owner called Procharger he found that they have made a number of improvements recently and the F-1X can be slowed way down to produce ~ 15 psi. After much contemplation I decided to go with the cog drive Procharger F-1X and the 1300 HP air to air intercooler upgrade.
Here is a pic of the tear down:
More to come!
