Give me your thoughts on a low boost ls7 I have a guy who wants more power in his stk ls7 in a jet boat. The motor only has 15 hrs on it so he would rather not tear it down to make a bunch of changes. So right now it's apparantly around 530hp and he would be happy with around 650@5500 max. I figured a pro charger or Vortech would do it with 4-5 lbs boost through a water/air intercooler. The guy has unlimited access to 100ll av gas so that is what he would run.
Think I am asking for trouble and should be at lleast changing out the pistons or it should work?

We have ran 15psi on our 07 Z06 shop car for nearly 3 years. It eats a steady diet of 100oct unleaded. Its went a best of 9.29@147mph with our auto conversion. I think 4-5psi would last quite a while for him.
