how much horse power is my car going to make
i have a 383 lt1 with 210 afr competion heads. 8.1 compression custom tpis boost cam, 58mm throttle body 120lb injector. 24x coversion with a aem driver box. twin 72mm turbos. water to air intercooler, going threw a built th400 trans with 3500 stall. 3.25 gears in a 9" rear. and 28-13.5-15 tires
on na with 11.1 compression and 42lb injectors it made 580 on the crank at 7200 rpm and now i lowered the compression and put turbos on. and i was wondering how much i lost going to 8.1 compreesion from 11.1. and how much i will make off boost. it put down 550 at 3 psi on the wheels when it was tuned and we blew the header gasket out. now i have locking header bolts.
so

Why in the hell did you go so low on compression?
It sounds like you just picked that number out of your *** instead of defining a fuel and boost number to stay with in the octane limits of the fuel, then choosing a compression number.
Unless you plan to run 30lbs on 93 pump gas... lol
