would be interesting to see where detonationation takes over.. goes to show how much more efficient a high static compression turbo engine is... although it comes at a cost of being limited to a lower maximum power


The higher comp is interesting, hopefully my NA BA motor makes power that easy with a comp ratio of 9.7:1. Of course my rods will bend before I get to 350rwkw :(

Anyone running the standard intake making those numbers??

AFAIK on this site, i don't think there's anyone running more than that standard 8-10 psi.
I'm only running 9 psi atm, but it isn't a 6.
I know if i go for a new motor and some serious power, i wont be keeping a vortech attached.

I'm not doing anything atm, maybe in a year or two, but i've been hearing a lot of good things about prochargers.
But that would most likely be on a 347 or 420+ cube block.
Or the same blocks as above but twin turbo.

Thats if a house doesn't get in the way of all this wasting of money on the car... :shock:

Its on the cards atm. But would still be a fair way off. As with most things its either time or cash thats the restraint. For this one, it would be cash...

My old ED made 271 on 16psi and my BA makes 288 on 11psi... the BA's smaller turbo makes more so goes to show how many variables there are in the turbo falcon world... there's i6's and there's twin cam i6's :D
