2004 GTO - from STOCK to NOT - a Tick Performance ProCharger Build!
Just finished up Markeven's 2004 GTO, a car that he brought to us bone stock with hopes of transforming it into a ~500rwhp ProCharged daily driver. He wanted a mild setup that would get the job done, but still be ultra reliable. Our solution?

not sure on the boost. the boost gauge goes from 20 to 0 and stops. not sure really how to read it. first time having anything with any type of a procharger on it. the gauge never goes over 0.

Spin the **** out of it with a tiny pulley.
Look on prochargers website and see what the p1 is rated to (rpm wise). I don't know if they'll give a psi rating because a million different things will change PSIG.
One thing to think about, its not so much about boost (as its only a measure of restriction). A guy I knew had a TVS2300 on his GTO, threw some LT's on it and saw a drop in pressures.....he took them off thinking it was making him less power. When in reality, it was just a lessening of restriction, and probably was doing the oppostie.
