Honestly, 35-50* Over ambient is outstanding for a PD blower. Reading the posts by KB, while the screw may be bigger he has proven what I have been preaching for years, they make great compressors to run my shop with.....but horrible superchargers. They are always compressing, therefore always creating heat and load on the engine. Bigger is not always better, and more boost is not always the answer to more power, but you know that....I have seen you preach it.

Depending on the boost levels you want to run, we have a few options to spin the blower faster without upgrading the FEAD. The one thing you should know, the 6 rib belt has its limits, no matter WHAT blower you use.

I will call you tomorrow.

Isn't "patience" a four letter word with just a few extra letters? Let me know how patient I'll have to be If you hurry, I'll pay you for that t-shirt

I guess I'm going to explore the limits of the TVS2300 with 6rib . I'm thinking much past 10psi and you're going to experience belt slip. I think with cam and good heads, 600rwhp is possible with the 6rib. If someone has done it, please chime in. The vette in my sig is above that with 6 rib, but there's just a little difference when you figure in the 4L80.

I also am going to see how far a 6rib will take me before going 8. Joe at leftcoast said 10-11psi or so would be about the limit of 6rib.
