Put projected tip TR6 plugs in a near 14:1 compression motor and then sprayed 200hp of nitrous on top of that with the TR6's and then wondered why he burnt the strap off the plug when it happened.
Guys the OP is an idiot as many of you have clearly seen now. I've been telling him for months now, it won't get through.
The tattoo confirms my first conclusions I made.

I am confused myself on why most of you in this thread are ragging on the OP's decision. Most of you have never owned a big cube, big cam motor. He stated this is a daily car, not his racecar as he has one already. Having a badass wild big cube motor is awesome, but sure does suck in traffic, going thru drivethru's, drawing a million law inforcements eyes and so on.... Trust me its awesome at first, but gets old real quick.
I see the huge benfits to be able to have a very mild, almost stock driving car thats on good old boost. Just my .02
Good luck OP

I've also heard of combining a supercharger and a turbo. Not sure if it was in series or parallel. The supercharger maintains pressure while the turbo spools up for higher RPM....I think

**** the haters, do what you want. Ive got hated on for about all of my stuff.
5400# 4wd silverado that ran the 1/8 in 7.2's on a stock LS1 with a mild cam and a Whipple.
And alot of bashing for my home built rear mount '01 Z, that ran 6.4's on 7# with a 6.0, pump gas and A/C, driving it 1 hour each way to the track. Then cracked 3 pistons on that motor and didn't have the cash to fix it at the time. Since I had a bunch of junk laying around, i used a stock LS1 block and pistons, put them with a 4.8 crank and rods to make a 309". And with another 4# of boost, 11# total, it was still running the same 6.4's with 55 cubes less. It turns the same 1.4x 60's as before, and I have about $600 in the bottomend vs $2,000 in the forged 6.0, it runs high 9's on the 1/4 in a daily driver for a lot less money.
So I understand what you're saying, bigger isnt always better. Looks like you got a bunch of experts that can't break out of the 12 second club.... LMAO.
