    Figured that was pretty obvious lol
    Point is if Bio was doing heads and a proper cam he'd easily attain his goal on the little TVS.

    And while that TVS swap you did obviously showed dyno proven gains...I'm sure Nick wouldn't even consider it because it isn't very loud...he'd say "It just doesn't whine enough"...even though he wouldn't make as much power. Just how he is.

    Thats the one part where the TVS fails.

    They're not as brutal sounding.

    Yeah it's almost silent on 7Psi. Rips pretty nice on 14 though.

    To be fair, the sound's coming from the smaller pulley (increased rpm), rather than increased pressure, right?
    Irridium spark plugs last 100k mi and work just as well as copper. Copper is a waste on N/A and only lasts 15k mi. Don't use Platinum.
    Use 195* tstat unless you can thoroughly explain why not; 99.9% don't need a lower temp.
    Almost any oil filter, ever, is of higher quality than ACDelco. Spend $6+.

    It peaks a little higher and starts a little lower, those are about the averages.

    this.

    given that a blower produces gains as well as volume, i am interested. therefore most OEM application blowers just aren't for me. my m90 on a 3.2 was miles beyond what yours sounds like right now.

    knowing that scott likes to kill my dreams, what kind of blower can i slap on this motor without pushing it stupidly outside of its efficiency and still make good power? most likely i will end up pushing the m90 past where it is useful to me considering i want to push a boost bleeding cam as far as i can go with it.

    The m90 is likely going to be the loudest blower.

    Loud? Here's my gen5
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GxMGI...e_gdata_player

    On that same note, there is a mp62 with a 2.8 pulley on a 2.7 v6 tib. Loud as hell too



    Again. Besides possibly not needin an intercooler, Why spend all that money to not hear it ? It will be like any other 330whp n/a car lol.

    I dont think he's got any driving vids of it yet. He just uploaded a video with the Gen V and E85 11 days ago. He plans on running a 2.8"

    I'm sure you've seen this vid but he's running a 2.8". Not sure if that's Gen III or V, though.

    Why do I feel like this whole TVS 350whp thing is so deceptive? If you have 2 pulls on this, why not actually explain what is going on instead of just posting 1/4 of a dyno graph?
