But MAN that G8 is SWEEEEEEET.

The new generation sc's released within around the last 12 months have closed the gap a good amount of efficient (hp & acts) beteewn a sc and turbo. If they made 530rwhp with that turbo if that dyno is accurate then 530rwhp might be possible imo with a new generation sc running around 8psi.

Ok just found this looks like a stock LS3 has made 560rwhp (658hp) & 528RWTQ (622tq) running 7.5 psi on a new generation TVS 2.3L supercharger. Now this is on a LS3 Corvette motor I am asumming this is the same as the Camaro LS3 correct? This is some decent power just throwing on a sc. So now imo I am thinking a Techo 3.0L suercharger might put out over 560+rwhp on an LS3.

I think the OP needs to state what decent longevity is.

is it 100,000 miles? or like 150,000 miles?

I did post what I think decent logevity is for me in post 26. I would only be puting on about 10k miles a year not my DD. Of course no way knowing if it will last that long could be sooner or could be longer eithe way I know your on barrowed time

Hey Evil what et (& 60') are you running with that 03 Cobra just going off the 453rwhp464rwtq would assume you running around 11.40-50's?

The LS3 has cast pistons!! Its the LS9 that has the forged.

HAHA ya right. The nearest track is ~2-2.5 hours away. I only go once, MAYBE twice a year in the summer. And I only run street tires. Best run so far has been 12.8 @ 113 (it was ~95*). It's kinda hard to gauge what the car would run at other tracks, for refrence on that day SRT8's were trapping 102's, LS1's were 99-101, a GT500 was @ 109's, and my friends full bolt-on, cammed, geared, tuned 99 TA was at 13.1 @ 111. All the other 03/04 Cobras were also in the 111-112 range with the same mods. With these mods, most people on the net trap 117-120. I guess it was a slow day at the track. I'm probably gonna go at the end of this month.

I stand corrected and apologize for the wrong info. I'll research in the future instead of going from my crummy memory.
