I know it’s been awhile just curious how it all turned out? I’m considering a F150 with a magnablower.

Steve, Very cool project....I think, for what's that worth....the reason for the low boost is volume. You know what you are doing so I seriously doubt you have unmanaged leaks or routing issues. I also run an Eaton supercharger(ported) on a 2.2L and it produces approx 13.8psi. I forget the # but it's the stock model on my SLK, modified. I also replaced my Crank pulley with the ASP huge, honking, .12thou clearance pulley to get there. I considered replacing the gear on the clutchless SC(on my car) but again, not even close to being worth the delta in gain.

The unit you have will never spin fast enough to respect the law of diminishing returns, size really does matter<LOL>. You need a bigger boat! (SupCharger)

Good luck, that is a beast of a project.....the confidence you attack things with is inspiring!

Be careful, it's not a TANK engine<LOL>, but really looking forward to seeing what you are "puttering" on! I play with a lot of two stroke engines, small, light, powerful....never liked 4 strokes, except the blown ones.

Every single 4 stroke I own other than one bike and my lawnmower is either super or turbo charged.....mo power, always more!!

My understand from talking with the builders at one of the Tuning firms indicated that they see failures; in order, head bolts, crank insert bearings....as you go over 420BHP so just be careful.

No one here wants you to fail, Steve!!
