couldve run out of bandwidth on the PB account; youre drawing some decent interest

How the hell do you get 40lbs of boost through that much piping? seems smallish (diameter wise) and curvy.

It goes through them quite fine. Last year 42# and 10.1:1 went 164.3, dropped the boost down to 37.7 and 11.4:1 A/F went 164.8, we're wondering what would happen at 42# and 11:4. Shawn builds some bad *** motors.

Who says you can't have high compression with high boost.... You just need to have the right people build and tune the setup.

I agree - mine is one of them! VA Speed continues to impress the race community with exceptional quality and performance that are also "works of art". I can't wait to get my new forged LS2 motor and other project items completed in my C5 track car so I can get it back on the road racing courses soon like VIR!
