Default Horse power potential??

right now im at 706rwhp at around 10-12 lbs of boost. I wanna up the boost as much as i can with out over spinning the head unit, do a fuel system that will handle more power, and retune. So how much boost can i realistically get out of the d1sc and how much power is the most i can make on 93pump + meth on a dynojet?? thanks

ENGINE
Forged 347
Eagle crank
Eagle rods
Wiesco pistons (9.5-1)
Trickflow 215 heads
A&a stage 2 blower cam
Patriot duel valve springs
Arp head studs

Blower setup
D1sc procharger set up
New style procharger brackets
Big red blow of valve
Ecs 8 rib blower set up
Snow methanol injection

Exhaust
Kooks 1 7/8 headers
Kooks off road x pipe
B&b bullet cat back

You're at the same hp as my 402 and T-Trim with similar boost. I'm a little depressed now...

Your D1sc can get you to the 850rwhp range. I have seen it multiple times. Pump gas and meth is not going to be a limiting factor.

Feel free to give me a call or pm and we can discuss your setup.

The items I would be concerned about are the Eagle crank and rods. What are they rated too? 800rwhp would be nice, but 700rwhp that stays together is nicer.
You have the capability with your set up, make sure you have the durability with your set up first though.

Feel free to stop in or call if you would like to discuss this farther.

805 rwhp SAE. The rods were stock, they let loose.

Ok sounds good..I wasn't sure if id be able to get 15lbs out of the d1sc.. I'm pretty confident the easier rotating assembly will hold together from past experience

In a word, yes. You can change out to a large front mount single, we make a replacement kit. It is possible to make the power, but IAT's will suffer.

Man all you guys making 800 plus on 347 ci make me mad. The tuner that tuned my car needs to learn how to tune. It's a 427 destroked to 387 on 13 psi and made 675 on an overly conservative tune with meth. I'm switching to a 3.4 blower pulley hoping for 18 psi and 800rwhp with out nitrous.

Something wrong with your set up in some way, That really should be doing alot better with a good tuner on it. Unless you are still on 6 rib set up and no flip drive on her. Then you are just at a lose but the tuner should be able to tell by your runs on the dyno if you are slipping at the belts...Robert

The problem is a horrible tune. Efi alchemy in Jacksonville, fl tuned the car for the previous owner. It has and ATI 8rib conversion with no belt slip. I just started a thread in here that has my full mod list ( can I run mid 9's on my setup) take a look at it and tell me what you think

I did last week I think I dont see it in the 9,s with a stick car, Unless you really just have a excellent run in it from the line all the way thur to the 1/4 mile. It has been done but not like in a A4 trans car in the vette.. Much easy to do in a auto set up that time after time. These dam cars just dont hook up at all that good.. Robert
