who do you trust? the person that took 13 months of planing? or a run of the mill mechanic.
tOriginally posted by ECOtec GodsConsider this: 800 hp is a lot on a 2.0L motor. With 750hp, three-quarters of a thousand you're basically dealing with 6.14 hp per cubic inch. Pressures and stresses of all kinds thermal and mechanical loading across the board escalate to extreme levels. A Chevrolet 5.7-liter LS1 V8 with this much specific power (horsepower per cubic inch) would be making 2,137 hp

intercooler= more power on same boost level with less timing retard.....
nah, I wouldn't use and inter cooler, but an interheater , now your talking. Strap that bitch to the exhuast pipe so you can heat the ari more, and then you can make all that pressurem but not really have any more air then n/a...then you could retarf the timing like 40 degrees, and run a supper cool a/f ratio of like 9:1 to help stop detonation.
Choices get harder everyday....
