noshun 06-08-2005, 08:18 PM 300 Horses? An LD9, Supercharger, smaller pulley, intake/exhaust/headers and some better pistons and cams. You should wind up just passing the 300 HP mark and it'd be relatively constant boost over a turbo. you'd have to run like 15-16 psi to make 300. which s/c would you use then? this turbo is from a 7.0 diesel truck and makes full boost at 2800rpm. seing as you don't use elow that unless cruising it's rip the arse out of an s/c'd car. Trust me on this one come from experience. besides i said good luck with n/a. I know how to make lots of power out of the LD-9 but 300 is pretty much unnatainable without boost OverAllComa 06-08-2005, 10:15 PM you'd have to run like 15-16 psi to make 300. which s/c would you use then? this turbo is from a 7.0 diesel truck and makes full boost at 2800rpm. seing as you don't use elow that unless cruising it's rip the arse out of an s/c'd car.

I know how to make lots of power out of the LD-9 but 300 is pretty much unnatainable without boost You'd not have to run those numbers to make that power. The GM Charger puts the LD9 well over 200horses and it's only around the 4-6 PSI mark. A smaller pulley to push out around 8-10 combined with all your basic mods associated with helping the motor breathe, some cams and pistons and you should just be set. 15-16 PSI? BAH! However, I've talked with a friend of mine, and he reccomended the centrifugal charger over the eaton type. The eaton's good for mid-range power and the centrifugal get's more power way up high. Once again, you'd probably not even need to push 10 PSI to gain that kind of power at all. ...Almost forgot, good luck with your turbo. You'll be needing it when your shifter links start to fry like a fat chick sunbathing on the beach. noshun 06-09-2005, 11:24 PM You'd not have to run those numbers to make that power.

You'll be needing it when your shifter links start to fry like a fat chick sunbathing on the beach. you obviously didn't read anything i wrote. i know a guy sponsored by rsm that has the cntrifugal blower i know 3 guys with eatons and i know a guy with a turbo!! have you ever heard of heat shields. it's all dependant on the shape of the turbo manifold however and my buddy chriss you can hardly see the turbo unless you lean way over and at night it need to be glowing to see it! you seem to think that by doubling th eboost on an eatoin you'll get another 100hp the motor runs 1250 stock and 4-6 psi pushes and extra 50 horses. by your working (which isn't how it works) you'd need at least 12-18 psi to make 300 hp!!
