You will be absoloutly fine with the 5-6 PSI you actually could go 8-10PSI safely especially since you have the metahnol kit!

You should easily be able to be in the mid 500's to 600 RWHP with your new set-up!

You will need to have it professionaly tuned on a dyno though, you will not just be able to pop the system on and go! there are certain tables that need to be set and delt with - Ex: Your 60lb injectors need to have an injector calibration done even before you start the vehicle

Find a tuner in your area and have them do the dyno tune for max HP and TQ!


Thanks,Matt

Thanks guys. I forgot to mention it's on a 112 not a 114 which I think will hurt me.Any body ran this cam with boost. I used the search and I still can't find out a yes run it answer or no it will hurt you answer.
