Default D1SC on 383LT1

With 415rwhp N/A on a 383 LT1(mods in sig minus stroker, 12-bolt, blower cam), how much rwhp gain will I see from 12psi from a D1SC?

A couple of threads above shows 150rwhp gain on a stock LS1 with 8psi on a P1SC! My ride is MUCH faster than a stock LS1. So, why can I or can I not see this much rwhp gain? Does it have to do with the engine's capacity for air and your ability to deliver enough fuel or something?

Exactly. If your cylinder heads are on par with the same LS1 heads you are comparing your hp to, and the efficiency of both ProCharger systems are basically the same, then you should see roughly the same gains. This would be assuming your fuel requirements are met. Bob

Adding 12# boost with a good set of heads & matching cam should net approx 200rwhp. I have routinely seen 600rwhp on quite a few moderately cammed 383 LT1's with only 12# boost
