Default where is your procharged lsx making peak HP?

I've been looking and i've noticed alot of cars making peak HP really early in the rpm range....

where does yours make its peak power... also list what your peak power is or post a dyno sheet if you have it.

HP should be at the max at the max RPM you rev to since the blower spins faster with the belt that is directly off your crank. That is the beauty of a supercharger: power is linear and easy to predict and tune for.

Are you having any valve float or fueling problems?? In a perfect condition it should keep climbing but unfortunately you're right in that it's not just the fact that pushing more air in means more power... Also you can have belt slip and other parasitic factors that may make it start falling off...

Hey Ty, Are you seeing any KR with 12:1 AFR??? I know that you have a forged bottom end but just wondering... What does your IAT's look like?? Are your plugs good in there?? Do you have any misfires?? It seems like an easy fix possibly

bob, i may have just found out why my car dropps off after 5800 rpms.... tell brent i really appreciate him helping me out....

it looks as though my car has 15* of timing from 4000rpms up.... that means there is a lot of under the curve and peak HP left....

thanks again guys at EPP.... since you guys always try to help me i always like to try and buy product through you.
