dizuster, love your car! One of the reasons I looked at boost as an option. Just curious, who's blow through carb are you using? I was told to give CSU a call. Thanks

My carb is from Eric and www.horsepowerinnovation.comHe strictly does E85 stuff, and I can't say enough good things about him or his products! He's takin me from 450hp to nearly 900hp on basically the same unit with a booster upgrade along the way. Other then that it's just been tuning stuff he's been able to do (or provide to me as needed) Pretty impressive for a little 750 Holley.

Not sure who's carb you were using, but that is not true across the board. The fuel curve under boost is easily controlled with the latest boost reference power valves. Acts 100% like a normal carb, until it sees boost and then goes as fat as you want it to. Piece of cake... The ONLY time I've ever had carb issues is when I'm getting outside the power window of what it was set up for. When I tell the guy it's only going to make 700hp, and I'm trying to push it to 900hp... yeah it needs a bunch of jet!
The timing thing is no big deal either. Lots of boost reference options out there that will control timing. Lets you run full timing at no/low boost, and pulls out as needed. Of course, there are exceptions. Love your car by the way. I am just saying, it can be more difficult than it first appears... Its been nearly a decade since I played with centrifugals, and if I run a centrifugal again, or a turbo, it will be with fuel injection.

[quote=procharged 484]I like my set up f2 on a 484 hemi over a 1000 hp and 1000 fpt at 9 # boost with a small cam 580 roller in a 70 challanger BUT I wish I went f1 size so I didn't have to cut the fender well . Good luck [/quote Ant pictures of this? Can't imagine one of these in a e-body with a hemi .

Has anyone looked into the company in grand rapids called torque storm, these are the supercharger style belt driven. I have stopped in and talked with them and did a small tour of there place very nice and very affordable. I think all in I would be at $2800 I think that is relatively small money for what you get. they come set at 7psi with pulley swaps available up to 12psi I think. or cut your own pulley and void the warranty, no difference either way. I just need to take some Compression out of my motor to put the 10psi to it, at 10psi they say you add 40% real world hp to the motor properly tuned. http://www.torqstorm.com/ For someone looking for a little extra HP this looks like a very good option. They have been selling them for a while now. I looked around on the web a little and could not find anything negative. Limited lifetime warranty is certainly interesting. Bill

340Cuda, I am really trying to work on taking some Compression out of my motor on the cheap and buy one of these, they are really nice, you can even double them up for more Boost. I was told that being at just under 12 to 1 is not a good starting point to use one of these, I don't know that's why I ask questions.

That depends on fuel and cam events.

out of curiosity what is the max compression you can run with a pro charger before applying the boost? The gen 3 I posted has 10.5 and will run on e85.
