methanol is a good idea but i would prefer vortech to come out with a power cooler i think bcnu 702 said that he was working with vortech to create one i wonder if he has any updates

what post is that from?

I have just about every mod to have at this satge. NST pulley 9.5 pulley, Ingalls dampner, Dc header, megan s pipe, custom 2.5 inch cat back with magnaflow high flow cat, bosch 110 bpv, short shifter. And Probably more I have forgotten. Stock tires atm, I wanna run a 14 psi pulley and tune with either the dezod "stand alone ems" or the aem fuel ignition controller (neither of which I think are ever going to come out. And run the Water meth and injectors. I'm not worried about the warranty anymore, i destroyed the header heat sheild installing the header. So thats not a factor. I'm looking for in the 300hp neighborhood. And yes, I got the water meth to help with the insane heat soak. I wish the S/C was intercooled.

I dont know how safe 14lbs is because almost nobody is boosting that high but that combo will put you around the 300whp mark.

14psi is still 14psi, that's a lot of boost on a stock engine even if it's only for a few hundred rpms.

I want to add to what I put because it might sound misleading - 14lbs is not safe on stock internals. ....but with your mods and that boost you should be around 300whp. Karl had 320whp on 12lbs but that was with cams also.
