not to nice blue one

27psi.....:wacko: that'll be interesting....is there any difference between turbo & supercharged psi...????
 
There's allot more to it than just the psi, what about flow, temp (inlet/outlet), compressor type and size, cooler/pipework efficiency and volume........just to name a few.
The list of variables is vast and if you have a miss match of critical components you could end up losing power instead of gaining, even if the parts are of good quality.

Yes, you're right. That's why i've been careful with the selection of hose and exhaust sizes, intercooler location (almost the same as front mounted), and compressor (supercharger), with the aim of having as little volume as possible, with maximum flow. With that and the aftermarket (Entry Level) ECU, as well as the 803's (If needed) it should be pretty good. Once its running, it'll be a cam change if i need more - at least until i blow a hole in one of the pistons or a liner.
 
Wasn't intended as a dig at anyone, just remember to take it easy if your on standard pistons/liners and if you need to go above 80% duty on the injectors then get some bigger ones instead to be safe, no point wrecking an engine you've spent allot of time on making good just to save a few quid.

Nah, i didnt think you were having a dig. Im not that sensitive! :wacko: I have spent a lot of time doing more than just making it look good tho Dan!! lol. Most of the development has been in the wiring and supercharger brackets. :smash: and i cant stand working on dirty engines!
