Realquick, I'm sure you are! But if you read the thread, he is at 10psi of boost he thinks if he adds 5psi more boost that he going to increase by 60-100rwhp. It isn't going to happen. And if you knew that why wouldn't you tell thread starter about the bumps in the road. 60-100rwhp is a reasonable quess for 4-5psi gain. in his case WILL NOT HAPPEN!!!!FOR A FACT!!!!. I'm sorry to you Realquick I honestly act like i have all the anwsers but i don't! I just don't want thread starter to go down the same path i was lead down..............Joe

The blower is a D1SC with a 4.0" pulley on the s/c. I plan on stepping up to around a 3.55" or 3.60" pulley. I'm not close to maxing it out yet. Tuning looks pretty good right now but I think I might have fuel press. problems once the boost is cranked up. The BAP is nearly maxed out already.

RealQuick, YOU WIN! this is a sucker bet. Too many variables. I was looking at this with blinders on. Lets assume that his car is a good running stroker w/10psi making high 565+ right now. On pump gas with a safe tune 11.5 to 11.8 a/f ratio. No meth, gas(nos), continue on 93 octane maintain a/f. stock computer 635-665rwhp. How many guys would like to do that!!!!! I'm in....sent tune a.s.a.p.......Again I looked at this wrong anything is possible

Realquick & evilundisguised, Give Speed Inc. in Sch. IL. a call & they will be happy to explain it to you. But, the way it was explained to me Because i have A 1bar map (old style computer) that i would need to go fast/bs3. they never said that the mass air flow sensor was maxed out. something about distorted fuel tables??? Or something like that. But either way unless you two are making 580+++ without meth inj. or Nos. on a stock 95 pcm you would not know what I'm talking about. So to answer the question truthfully the thread starter on this forum is in for a surprise if & when he cranks up the boost and their will be tuning issues that can be resolved with high octane 108+++, meth injection or stand alone computer. do it & find out. like other people i know.......................Joe
