BOOST 101
The topic at hand is that we have to know what we are talking about here. First of all it seems that Mr."Xedos" is the only one that raised his hand and knows that the Miller cycle engine has about 14 PSI from the factory. But we seem to have certain individuals that think that with a increase to 9 PSI the motor will dyno 234 hp to the wheels. Now class add 30% loss on the dyno would be about 275-280hp to the crank with ONLY 9 PSI? That would be more like 120 hp! Are we being truthful class? Lets keep it real. NOS is the only way to get numbers like that without boost and you will probably fry the blower. That motor is very sensitive so be careful who you listen to mod-wise.Dont throw out anything because you dont know who might read it and just say "not another one" Class is in sesson_____
Depending on the blower or turbo size 1 PSI = 7-10 hp. SO FOR THOSE THAT DONT KNOW 3 PSI/30HP WILL MAKE A BIG DIFFERENCE.On a small blower or turbo 15 PSI will feel like 8 PSI on a larger application and vise-versa. Smaller blowers like ours spin faster to make small amounts of power. When a big Vortex blower will make big power with only 6 PSI. Our blower spins at over 10,000 rpms which a pulley 1cm smaller may create 5 psi but the shafts may be spinning faster than they are designed to withstand which will result to 0 psi/ $$$.It takes money / research / trial & error to make a reliable upgrade. Any questions? :shifty:
