Default Ready to forge my 346 what can I expect out of my d-1 and gt3 cam.

How much boost will I be able to get away with on pump gas. I currently has about 525 rwhp how much more will I see with a forged setup. Any help is always appreciated.

Thanks Andy

Well with a forged setup you will be able to run more psi safely depending on what your CR is will dictate how much you can run on pump gas. I recommend 100% methanol injection along with 93 octane and a 9:1 or 9:5 CR with a head change and run 15-17 psi.

How much methanol does a FI engine consume? I really hate the idea of having to fill the bottle time and time again. But if that's the safe way to go so be it.

Hey Bob,

As much as I would like my car to be at your shop again, I don't think I could afford the shipping.

Thats too bad Andy, but you can copy the parts we used in this build and end up with similar results. Bob
