How do you plan on getting 400+ more hp out of that thing. I cant imagine the heads staying down on your current block with the added boost you would need to get those numbers.

by turning up the boost....i am only at 18-20 right now...it will handle 30 or so psi......we never have had a problem lifting the heads on this particular build, nor the previous...


it can be done....

Hey Flaco, quick off topic question. Someone said you lost .7 by going from a 60e to an 80e in one of your trucks(probably your nitrous setup in the 06), any truth to that?

lol. .7 seemed like A LOT to me but I couldnt find anyone saying what they actually lost on here. Then someone said you had lost 7 tenths.

Thanks for replying so quick, I appreciate it.
