Default 03 vette guestimate H/C/I procharger

recently aquired a 2003 c5 vette.
Car is a 6 speed manual
-102 fast intake
-ls2 throttle body
-ported 799 heads
-224/230 .581/.588-Inch Lift, 114 LSA
-Procharger D1X with twin intercoolers
-100 lbs injectors
-snow methanol kit
-LG long tubes, x pipe
-corsa indy pace car exhaust

pretty sure it has a smaller pulley and was making 15-17 PSI boost

I saw 12 on street conditions with no meth

If the engine makes 400rwhp NA, on paper, at 14.7psi it should make 800, given you have enough octane. You are going to get some parasitic loss from driving the supercharger compared to a turbo.

That setup in that chassis should make 430-450rwhp N/A pretty easily, IMO. So I think 800 is a reasonable number at that boost level. The more power you make N/A, the more power you are going to make blown at a lower boost level.

But every car and every dyno is different.

Don't get greedy with timing on the tune. That's what blows **** up. I'd keep timing soft at peak torque, but with a centri blower, it's gonna push your peak TQ number up the more boost you throw at it.

I don't know how efficient the twin intercooler setup is compared to a big single front mount. Hopefully the meth will help keep the IAT's under control.

I would definitely be reading the plugs.

the current setup, the plugs did not look terrible.
