Justin Im stoked to see this in person, and watch the raping upon many in FC. Just advice though because i got caught up in it before, know the limit to stop modding for funds sake lol. You have a good platform going right now, I know its tempting to keep it on 16 psi but honestly I would put it down to 8 psi for now and preserve the tranny/rear end. You will still be smashing everything around and have alot of fun. Be careful with that thing too dude. My trans am with the Gt67 turbo was straight violent and could get you killed in two seconds. You gotta have some cash to come down here on brother!

What kind of fuel system are you running? I thought the stock fuel lines were only good to 700rwhp max. I'll be doing a similar build soon. Just need to sell my bike an find a good deal on a shortblock. I kinda want to do aluminum though.

For now... Walbro in-tank pump with a hotwire kit and meth. Fuel will come when the trans can handle enough power to upgrade the fuel.

id have to know what your max rpm would be
what blower pulley you have
and at what rpm you were making @ 7.5 psi.

I could probably get pretty damn close.

need your crank pulley size tool.

Made 485Rwhp @ 6100RPMs IIRC.. That was @ 7# running out of fuel and spinning the tires.

So been doing some cleaning up on the car, ran my wires through the fender, redone some boost lines. Still have to redo the boost line from regulator to intake having decided on where to run it. Added a fuel gauge in the Pilar pod.
Added my spam fans to the radiator, didn't do the shroud, hope this works but if not I will be added the shroud to it.
Have to make me a bracket for the trans dip stick to mount to, just having got to that yet.
Putting fuel pump in tomorrow hope it fixes my problem on fueling issues and I believe I'm going to put my old exhaust back on so I have a choice to not have it so loud hopefully it won't hold back to much power.

Here is some updated pics.
