True ls2 heads do flow really well. A stock ls2 run at 10.9:1 so I didn't drop that much. But i'm fully forged on the bottom end, with a very sorted blower cam (ls9)

I thought you had a 2009 that came with the blower. What blower are you running because that also makes a difference. The one Joe is getting is an old school 2 lobe roots. It's not as efficient as the TVS blowers. |

Does your blower have an intercooler?

HP numbers are good and all, but they are like asking someone how much they can bench. What difference does it make if I can still kick your ass?

Yes, On a hot day fully warmed up I get between 120 - 145 intake temps. (i think its been almost a year the last time I checked.)

You're able to run higher compression because it's intercooled, it's a more efficient blower, and you're running low boost.

I forget what Ron's intake temps are, but they're insane, something well over 200 I think. If there's a guy who could really benefit from an intercooler, it's him.
