Did I miss something? I don't know anything about the OP's motor. From what I read it's not even built. I guess there is another thread floating around with more info on his car.
Again, I personally haven't reached the limit of the stock PCM. You have to skew a few things to make it work especially with using higher bar MAP sensors. But the stock PCM should be good for quite a while.

three muskateers I am running sounds like built to me but hey this is LS1 land...
Good luck I don't need to be part of this any further Done!
I am running a small turbo pte76gts so it should be all in by 6000rpm. I am going to run a 3 bar map, speed density, and try to push boost into the low 20s on E85. I say 700+ because I am hoping it will make at least that hopefully more on the e85. I really think I would be pushing the stock pcm to far and drivability would suffer. After all it is a street car. I have absolutely zero boosted tuning experience so I would most likely go to a speed shop and get it strapped on the dyno.

Wow I didn't mean to have this turn into a pissing contest. First off my motor with this size turbo will not be turned much over 6,000 rpms because I suspect it will be done making power and become a restriction. Yes I realize it is a smaller turbo for a 383 CI motor but its what I have. Second with E85 I plan on pushing as much boost as I can. From what I understand I should be able to get it into the low 20psi range. So wouldn't I need a 3 bar map? Now because this is the internet and any average Joe can claim to be John Force's brother I would like to hear from anybody who has personally built a boosted LT1 past the 700hp mark and what has worked for them. Honestly I have seen a 76mm turbo on a lt1 making 900+ on race gas so I really have no idea where my setup will fall. Hoping from 700-900hp, but I don't know because I have never built one of these.

My LS1tech garage is empty because I don't care to put anything in it. I have no need to advertise or show off.
Once again, good job flinging poop and trying to bring this discussion down to the level of an elementary school playground argument.
Who doesn't know what they posted already in this thread? Oh yeah, you.
Who is calling names like a child because technical information they posted was challenged? Wow, looks like that was you too.
Maybe you should delete all of your posts and start over. You have completely failed.
