This is the supercharger that I plan on using.What compression would be best.I plan on using afr 195's but not sure what compression to use.I want to use pump gas with the most psi possible.http://proficientperformance.com/Mer...&Store_Code=PP

You need to realize something that escapes people. These setups were designed for STOCK cars with STOCK compression ratios. Originally posted by 87tpi

Building a durable, high performance forged slug motor, then dropping the compression ratio to LESS than your stock static ratio is just plain stupid..
Run factory compression, build a free flowing exhaust, which includes head porting, and learn to tun with the '749.

9.8:1 and iron heads. I did not want it to be a dog not in to boost.

With the 7.5 and the 3.33 what is your impeller speed!?Originally posted by '91 Formula

Damn. Sounds nice.
I'm redoing my motor this winter. Gonna go with a smaller chamber, around 9.7:1 c/r.. S-trim.

I run 9.5:1. ran pump gas with 9lbs no problem.
Blownss has 9:1 14lbs on pump gas.
Both cars are intercooled

So with a decent cam,Afr 195's 12 psi,forged bottom end and a ported tpi set up,any ideas on horsepower and torque?I know I can't get an exact but I want a good idea before spending the cash.I am trying to stay ca. legal.
What cam should I use for best hp and torque while staying ca. legal?

Something that makes the most power, and is 50 state legal.Originally posted by 87tpi

Keep your air and cat functioning. Mass uses the same emissions as california. I passed with flying colors on my 560hp setup.

What size cam are you using?

I've been running 9.3:1 stock swirl port iron heads and 9-12 psi depending on belt slippage with no problems for 4-5K miles. I live in central FL where air temp is in the ~90 everyday and water temp struggles to stay below 220*.
I would think AL heads and good/smart tuning should see 10:1 comp and 15 psi easy on pump gas. Think big intercooler or other forms of detonation control.
