I made about 740 on 10psiso I would guess somewhere in the 700+ range. Your intake and tb aren't needed with boost and I'm not sure how that cam is for a blower setup.

I talked to vengeance and they said they don't recommend over 10 psi,but it should be good up to 10..

Take the under drive off and use a stock balancer for more belt wrap.

No need. And the fast intakes have been known to come apart under boost

People making 1000rwhp on stock intake and TB, so the money is better spent elsewhere.

Overdrive = more belt wrap and turning the blower faster. So that is more common on blower cars.

Good catch on the underdrive. He's right op use the stock balancer or get a overdrive balancer.

I'd at least do more research on the intake.. I've just seen too many people complain about them coming apart. Maybe that was an old model or something, I'm not 100% sure.. just trying to give you a heads up.

Billet intakes are very nice looking but money probably better spent elsewhere, unless of course you don't have to make those choices.

Why not just run the stock one?

Like I said.. plenty of people are making 1000rwhp on them. These aren't super restrictive cars from the 60's.

And yeah, the billet ones are stupid expensive from what I've seen.. and again.. why?

hard to say based on psi, pulley combo is best way to tell. with a 3.9" blower pulley and 8" crank pulley on my 8 rib setup I made 760/700 on a low compression 402ci strokes Ls2 with methanol on 91 octane fuel and 80lb injectors.

i say go with stock intake manifold too but I strongly recommend going with a 4" intake like the dallas performance one and getting rid of the procharger dongle. from what i can tell a 4" intake is worth 30-50whp and will really help with belt slip issues on D1SC
