The Official Centrifugal Pulley/Boost Combo Thread!!!

[98 Saleen Cobra]

Alright I'm hoping that we can get enough people to submit there setups so then we can help eliminate the weekly questions of how much boost on X combo. Hopefully this will help out alot of people with new combo's etc and hopefully make it a sticky. So here's what you need to post

Year of Car and what year timing cover you have. Different Years have different belt wrap configurations I'm pretty sure.
1. 2V or 4V ( List what type of Heads, B-heads, C-heads, TFS, Stoke etc)
2. Type of Blower
3. Big Bore/Stroker/ Compression
4. Ported Heads?
5. What Cams?
6. What intake? (aftermarket, Ported, Ported Short Runner, etc)
7. Intercooled(A/A) or Aftercooled or NO Cooler?
8. Exhaust Combo?
9. Pulley Combo (blower pulley size, crank pulley size) and belt length if you have it or remember
10. Amount of Boost you are seeing at X RPM.
11. Powerpipe?
12. HP/TQ

I'll go First

Its a good thing you have had three setups Chris...Prob enough to get this one to sticky already!!

I'll post mine up when she is all done. But so far methinks I will have 16 psi with a 10% OD crank pulley and a 3.33 blower. Stock manifolds to a magnaflow catted h pipe on 298 cubes and 8.5:1 Comp. Stock B heads and cams, ported stock intake.

 

[98 Saleen Cobra]

Damn I didn't know you did a stroker setup!! I'm always wondering how much more power I would have made if I stroked my setup lol!!

Hope this helps. I have a new setup coming that includes a forged short block, ported heads, cams and a D1SC. I'll post that up once it's broke in and tuned.

Stroked out it woulda been 5.3? Shit would have been off the charts son!!!

awesome man. good thread. hope it kicks off well. I may have already asked you, but i'm gonna be running a very very similar setup w/ a T-trim, and 8.5:1 w/ 04 cobra heads (but 04 cobra cams as well on a wap block) and no long tubes. do you have any issues with it dogging at low rpms w/ the compression ratio? i have 4.10s to pick it up a bit. nice numbers too, hope i can be in that ballpark.

 

[harvboi05]

1. 4V stock b heads

Thanks man. No I have no issues at all with down low torque.

Stroked out it woulda been 5.3? Shit would have been off the charts son!!!

Yea it would have been a 5.3.. I think I would have helped a bit lol.. Maybe a bit closer to that 700rwhp mark on pump gas that's for sure

1. 4V stock b heads
2. Novi 2k
3. stock longblock/compression
4. stock heads
5. stock 98 cobra cams

Ill have numbers soon with a 2.9" and 9.2cr, just got the car out of storage. Taking 6 rib to the maxx...

And that right there the 7.3k RPM makes me miss my B-headed car so bad.. That effing thing pulled until I either floated a valve or decided to shift!! I can't wait to see what it does with a built motor!

 

[sgtboylan]

Thanks man. No I have no issues at all with down low torque.

ok. cool. thanks. i didn't think so. especially with those numbers. haha

 

[98 Saleen Cobra]

lol yea the big bore motor helps a lot with low end tq too. I make quite a bit more tq than most setups.

[Double"O"]

HP/TQ would help as well gents

it always seems people want to know how much power they might see on a given setup

 

[98 Saleen Cobra]

Good call... UPDATED!!

 

[01yellercobra]

1. Stock 03 Cobra heads
2. Procharger D1-SC

12. 496/469 on a Mustang Dyno at 12psi on seven cylinders and running out of fuel. I never made it back after fixing everything.
13. 91 octane fuel. 12 degrees of timing.

Unforetunately that blower has died. I sent it back to Procharger and it would cost me almost as much as a new one to have it rebuilt. So while I'm saving some money I'm trying to decide if it's time to step up to an F1A.

It's a dog of the line and low rpms, may switch to a 3.4" pulley or 4.10 gears.

Im posting the graph because it shows boost across the rpm range, I will remove if you all dont want it here, really shows how the P1 piles on

 

[DSG2003Mach1]

great thread idea, may also be handy to include what fuel is being used and timing if known
