Even if your bottom end was stock it wouldn't be an issue with proper tuning. There was a Trans Am on CZ28.com years ago in the 11s with a Powerdyne. But the consensus was, for throwing one on a daily driver with bolt ons, it was fine, but if you ever wanted more power they were best bypassed for a Vortech or ATI. Your going to want more and you'll be limited with how much more with that particular blower.

oh cool yeah the thing is im not worried about the power i am gonna get out of one... well of course im looking for power but i think the way my car is now fast i just wanna maybe add the cool sound of a blower on my car![Grin](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_grin.gif)
and also the power outcome and if i did run one im positive i wont go over 4.5 PSI but yeah
i just want to make my motor last but i know adding forced induction to any motor isnt gonna make a motor last as long a as NA motor so my main question is how many miles would a motor last with one of the powerdyne units on it and of course considering the motor is allways kept in good condition ie. tune up and all maintance up to par

If all you want is noise and no power then slap a 58mm TB on there as they whisle quite a bit and kinda sound like air being forced in (at least it does on mine). Plus it'll save you a few grand.
If you really want a whine get a turbo kit for that sucker as turbos whine a bit when spooling up and then you have the bov.
