    as fir doing my homework ummm yea i have. stefan ran 10lbs before he rebuilt the motor duh he is still running 10 lbs because past that is pushing the fuel system.


    like i said if you wanna go fast dont get the powerdyne unit. lol um high 13's isnt that impressive. um and to be honest if someone just wants to run 13's, spray is much cheaper and just about just as reliable. hell you dont have to spray a wet shot to get high 13's hell i could get 13's with a 50 shot (i am sure your motor would last longer in the 50 shot then the blower cause the blower is always on and you would be temped to give it a little more gas) and that would be at about 1/6th the price of the powerdyne.

    I dought you can pull a LS1 at 70mph lol the only way you beat him was cause he spun and top end would of got you and one with any bolt ons at all would eat you.beat one at the track that has nittos then you can say you beat a LS1 hands down. hell i can run with my friends lt1 it dynoed at 270 (he has **** for wheels dosnt know how to race) and i have run the same times as he has at the track lol but could i pull him from 70 ummm no

        Hey Jason, you still haven't done your homework. Are you saying Stephan didn't have any problems with 10lbs of boost before he rebuilt it. Do you know what a BLOW BY is? This is what you get when you run to much boost. Combustion sipping through the rings and getting into the cylinder block. The is why I've had my dip stick poping off and it was what Stephen and Shirl and the two Ed's I know have experienced. In my Automotive class we have a chevy 350 donated to us because the owner ruin it with running a SC. The teacher shown us what a blow by did to his engine. In the cylinder block itself the oil looks like sludge and hard paste. I get tell you enough what the rings look like and the walls.

        As far as the bonestock LS1, we didn't smoke tires that much. It was nice and even from the start.

        Yeah you're right, a V6 running 13 sec. with a Blower is not really all that impressive. I guess that 50 shot of NO2 can do that for you.
        :rolleyes:

        Oh, Jason, while you're doing your Homework make sure you look up the word "dought." It's actually spelled "Thought". [img]graemlins/dunce.gif[/img]

          like i said i did my homework if you did yours you would know that when stefan added a 3" exasght it didnt have blow by anymore ask him yourself. hrmm seems you need to read alittle more (didnt i say this to begin with)

          ummm ok when you can run only high 13's on the powerdyne and you can run 13's with a 50 shot umm besides the nitrous being faster doh (umm you can spray a wet 100 shot safely) which would be low 13's and probly a 12 if you can hook and what not ummmmmm sooooooooooooo like i was saying if you want to go fast or be the fastest powerdyne is not the way to go. and nitrous is much cheaper and faster then the powerdyne lol do you get that part faster

          give me a dyno fo your car if you are pushing more the 250 i would be suprised lol hahah umm the ls1 did spin or the driver sucks balls at racing. (if yall race at a track and he has nittos and knows how to race u got 50 that he will beat you)

          ummm im sorry i dont really pay attention when i am typing and dont give a **** about spelling or punctuation for the most part i dont fell i need to spend 30 mins writing a dam message.

              lol hahahah actully i have respect for people that give it number one and for people that actully know something about there car


              I am not lying i am not making **** up i am giving examples.

              respect i think would be the wrong word if you use a word it would probly be mean lol i dont care if you like me i am not here for you to like me but common now this same ****ing question has been asked over and over WHY CANT PEOPLE READ before they post a friggin topic

              and who the **** am i not respecting i am saying IF YOU WANT TO GO FAST I WOULDNT GET IT, MOST PEOPLE WOULD AGREE WITH ME. your not gonna set any records with it now if your looking for a 50-75hp boost to run high 13's by all means if thats all you want then by all means get it but when a better product is coming out for not that much more that you can see a 100hp incresse plus if you rebuild with the powerdyne there is not need to rebuild with lower compression cause you cant boost more

              I just did a search on powerdyne it gave me friggin 51 results common now people wtf do a search read some it aint gonna hurt you. hell there is even an artticle that the link is given to on the main page of forced induction

              just went to rk sprots website it list for $3,850.00
              new ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmm lets see waht all i coudl get for that much cash ummmmmmm


              nitrous
              heads
              cam
              converter
              exasght

              and yea it would run 12's not high 13's lol if you cant read i am sayin IF YOU WANT TO BE THE FASTEST POWERDYNE IS NOT THE WAY TO GO

                Alright Jason, I'm not going to continue on this. But keep in mind that fixing your exhaust DOES NOT fix the problem of blow by's. This sort of this happens within an engine (Via combustion chamber, piston head, and compression ring), not exhaust. Eventhough you stop poping your dipstick doesn't mean blow by is not happening.

                The guy with an LS1 guy the thumbs up and was impress with my V6. He was to suprise to know it was supercharged. I told him once he mods his car he would be awesome. This was 2 years ago by the way and I'm sure his car is not stock anymore. Oh yeah when I get the other mods and dyno and track test it, you guys will from me.

                But anyway, once you get the SC do whatever you like and how much boost you wanna run. Let know us know about it. SO That's it Nuff Said Man!!

                PEACE JASON ;)

                    ok....he just asked about the damn supercharger. If you don't know anything about it, don't mess with this post. If you do have some insight, let him know.

                    I don't have any opinions on it other that I would wait for the ATI kit.

                          Stefan did fix his blow by problem by fixing his exhaust.

                          From what he told me, the Y pipe that comes with the RK Sport hearders join together right before the cat in the shape of a "Y." This in turn caused a bottle neck for the flow of exhaust... and he had it redone so it is no in the shape of a V a much more smoother design. Ever since he did that... buh-bye blow by [img]smile.gif[/img]

                          So in a way both of you are wrong [img]graemlins/rofl.gif[/img]

                            As far as it being new, rksports has never offered one for a 98 until now.
                            I am really thinking about getting it. It will probally be the safest and most reliable out there. I am not debating nitrous, it's just illegal here from what i'm told. Besides I would rather have something there all the time than having to worry about my bottle being empty or even having to hit the button for that matter. I don't want something extremely fast so i think if you are just looking for a good power adder and keep it as a every day driver like me i think it would be the smart way to go.
                            now if you are like james or magus, wait for batman to get through.

                              Blow by is caused by too much pressure in the engine -- more than the piston's rings can contain.

                              By opening up your exhaust, you lower pressure in the engine, and could then fix the problem of blow-by.

                              So yes, exhaust mods can fix it.

                              I think our engine can handle 9-10 lbs of boost with a good exhaust setup. Batman will likely experiment with it.

                              I will not say the powerdyne isn't a good unit. I just don't thinks a good unit if you are planning on rebuilding the engine to gtp specs (or better) and running 15+ lbs of boost. It would cost plenty of money above & beyond the kit to keep the charger from slipping, adding the intercooler, and I don't even know if the head unit can handle that much boost (I have heard they cannot).

                              If you want something simple (because I know this is a much easier install than batman's) for running 6-9lbs of boost. The powerdyne is an excellent choice. If you want to go all out, then its not.

                                Only by lowering your compression and strenghtening your bottow part of your engine can you run more boost. You need a better compression ring and not aspirited rings like ours can blow by be prevented. Exhaust does not stop blow by. When the piston head is push down by pressure that pressure per say sips right true the compression ring and straight into crankcase where it does its damage. An exhaust system doesn't open up till the 4th stroke and by then blow by has already occurred.

                                In an aspirited engine like ours, combustion gases that enter the crankcase are removed by a positive crankcase ventilation (PVC)system. There's my uncle who is a mechanic who recommends putting a crankcase breather on my car so I can run 9lbs of boost but it's something I'm thinking about.
