Stock Motors w/ F.I.

Hope that helped somewhat...
IntenseFab - 76. Here's a greddy one w/ stock motor I tuned a while ago, surprised to see its still alive and kicking

All done on a UTEC, Boost was right around 9 PSI. 0 smoothing

What the hell? Hey, OP, you have us listed as number 65 and "Blew Motor"!!!!!!
You need to make a correction, MrJax and LadyJax HAD a seized Vortech supercharger (as stated) that was replaced and now with over 5,000 miles of trouble-free running. No blown motor (at least, not that we know of). Thanks.

Dave said he expected 330whp or so, but car was hot and about had already done several pulls. Nothing was said to me about compression - no smoke through the pipes or anything like that. I will PM Dave and see if I should be concerned. Sorry for the OT - if anyone has any ideas how to get more whp out of my kit, send me a PM. THANKS

Car now has 56K on it and no issues.
