SO, the whole idea of this bulletin board existing for people to share ideas, stories and what works and doesn't work for them is bullcrap? Huh...I guess we
all have a little more time now that we don't have to post on this board.

if the IDEA, STORY, and WHAT WORKS FOR THEM is 10psi with thumper from hell then the only bullcrap is YOU criticizing that.
hahahaaa...yes, damn...I feel so burned. I should feel so foolish for trying to help people. Well, to me it looks like certain people need help with their slow 12 second cars.
How old are you two? Grow up and agree to disagree. A few of you are so cutting edge with performance, can you tell me how to get my car to slow down to get back to only running 12's?

pay $10.00/gal for race fuel all you want while other people make the same amount of power on pump gas for 1/2 the price.
and im 20 so i dont have the big bucks to drop a whole paycheck on gasoline for my car.

You're arguing a moot point.
You cannot, motor for motor, if using some type of forced induction, make the same power with pump gas versus race gas. You cannot attain the same boost levels using pump gas versus race gas. Does this mean I go out and fill up? No, but when I want more power, compared to just running pump gas, I either put in a few gallons of race gas or turn on my alcohol injection.
On the other hand, if I want to blow up my motor and build a new one, I'll just run the pump gas and watch my boost gauge hit 17psi while the piston comes out the side of the block.
BTW, I see you do not have a turbo or blower on your car, so why are you arguing with me about running race gas? I was only saying this pertaining to forced induction cars. You have a N/A car with fairly moderate compression so you can run pump gas all you want, YOU will gain nothing running race gas. Thanks for understanding...

having 5.7l worth of spooling muscle and not using it to spool something big is like having blank and a girlfriend and not blanking her. get it?
Nope, I don't get it because:
1) you make no sense
2) you don't own a turbo car
3) you have no clue what your talking about, and finally...
4) pose your theory, whatever it is, to Rob Raymer or Kenny Duttweiler and see what they say...
I'm done with your idiotic nonsense. I will help the people that need help, obviously you don't need help due to being so smart and knowing it all about turbos...good day.

so just beacuse we dont own turboed vehicles we dont know anything about them. ever heard of researching something before you do it? i know race fuel will not help my NA motor make any more power. im saying that there are other ways to make power besides race gas. lower compression to up the boost, running the turbo in its maximum efficiency range, etc. personally i think methanol is a "better" race fuel than simply pouring 11x octane in your tank. yes, you need delivery system to use it properly but it is so much cheaper than race gas it seems worth it. its like $1.00/gal . since you have to almost double your A/F ratio with it ill say for arguments sake that its $2.00/gal (just for comparison). thats about as much as regular gas but it has something like 110 octane and it cools your intake charge as well. both of which allow you to up the boost. and with an injection system you only run it when you want to so you dont burn your high dollar race gas on the way to the track.

WHERE IN THE HELL IS THE 10 PSI GRAPH????!!!!!!!!!!!
Reply #143 is from frcefed98 and he is requesting that graph from amacgt. There were 2 graphs posted very early on but neither were a 10 psi for the f-body. One was a 5psi on his car and the other was his buddy's truck. Amacgt said he had a 10psi graph of his car but has never posted it. Originally thats what this thread was about until it turned into a debate about who remembered the most from engineering school.
Pew- I posted the graph about 4 pages ago?? Where were you, here is the link to my post when I was hosting the graph.
https://ls1tech.com/forums/forced-induction/186377-amacgt-s-10psi-sts-dynograph-w.html
I took the graph off my server because only a handful of people showed interest in it and I need the space back to host some other things. But trust me it put down what he said it put down.

thanks frcefed98, We redynoed it with the new impeller and it did 570 horse and 604 torgue, we also put nitrous on it and it did 704 horse and 829 torgue. I have the graphs i can email if you are interested. thanks

amc can you repost your setup info, what turbo, what psi , what impeller and what engine and fuel system mods
thanks frcefed98, sent graphs to you,
