wITH Stock internals i would run the recommended boost. It think it's like 6psi or something like that.

that seems about right, anything higher it will start to spit out parts

it depends how u drive what mods u have and where u live, elevation is a killer. I saw this guy with a supercharged ls1 with all the mods hit high 11's because of 4.000 ft elevation.

the only thing ive got is a MAF and that would probably come off with the supercharger. plus i live at like 200 ft elevation. Im in Chicago

wELL if u got the maf u would have 2 upgrade you would need a CAI, headers, y-pipe, hi-flow cat, cat-back and then i would supercharge and get it tuned. I would start of with those mods first that way u can get the superchargers full potential.

The most you see stock rated system running is 6 - 8 PSI. I would feel fine running 6PSI but if you ever swap the internals you can always step up the boost.

6 PSI usually equals roughly like 30 - 40 % of the power.

ha ha, I used to be in Cicero off Pershing & Austin and right in in the flight path for takeoffs. Backyard parties used to suck.
Anyway, one of the Chevy dealers does a little further out west, can't remember which on at the moment. I also believe there's some indipendant shops in the Bridgeview area down Harlem? I'
