[QUOTE="Quadcammer, post: 3455905, member: 6813"] lets analyze your previous post mr. master engine builder. "the compression was done so the engine could see over 30 psi of boost, it was a misscommunicatoin it was supposed to be a 9 to 1 motor, but all he heard was blower car, and built it way to much. lower compresson = more boost you can run and more timing with boost, remember more boost and less compression will always equal more power than less boost with high compression, as for the 2.2 swap i have done all the recerch, and the 2.2 unit will fit on the existing kit, all you need is the compressor witch is 1500 bucks new, i already worked all the details out with kb themselves, you must fab up a boost bypass valve, thats the reason they dont ofer an upgrade, no place to mount it , and keep the stock stuff, so to do this you have to make or buy an imrc delete, and throw away the imrc motor, too make room for your bypass valve, cut a hole in the bottom of the open house intake manifold, and install it there, run vaccume lines to it, and bypass line to the front of your mass air meter, kb said the intercooler is not much of a problem, you just have to run a fewer degrees less timing, and loose about 30 hp over the intercooled versions of the 03 cobra kit at same boost levels. but most 03 cobra owners only run 17 psi, and if i do this ill be maxing the blower out at 24 psi, and due to my lower compression i can actually run way more timing without said intercooler, and also i will be running my killerchiller intercooler that is on the car now, it works well, it cools the air before it goes into the blower." 7.8 compression (which requires a custom piston) so you can run 30 lbs of boost. I can run 30lbs of boost on stock compression. Are you gonna run either on pump gas? **** no. Therefore, the higher the compression the better. Once you decide to run race gas, the sky is the limit and 7.8 compression isn't the answer. More boost and lower cr makes more power than high compression and low boost. How about a big fat bullshit. In every situation the higher compression will make more power. The only limiting factor is octane. however, you will certainly make more torque with high compression. if the 2.2 will fit on the existing kit, how do you explain why not one person has a 2.2 on a stock headed b head car. you may only lose 30 hp when the car is cold. ever hear of heat soak. that 30 hp when cold turns into 70rwhp when warm. you say cobra owners run 17psi with a cooler, but since you have lower compression you can run 24 without? what the **** kinda sense does that make. .7 points of compression isn't gonna make your 24psi non cooled run colder than a cooled 17psi. finally, this cooling the air before the blower. absolutely retarded. ok, you take 50 degree air, and compress it with 24psi. discharge temps of probably about 250 degrees, if not more. Now take 10 degree air, and compress it at 24psi. discharge temps will be about 230 degrees. Wowzers, thats a huge difference. as for me, I have run a blown cobra with over 600rwhp for over 2 years, on pump gas. wow, 1000rwhp turbo cars, bfd. 600hp all motor, again, wow. what does helping to build mean anyway, painting the valve covers. go ahead junior, go build your 24psi, non intercooled, b headed, 7.8 compression motor (which im sure has forged rods, not billet) and come back when you've either rattled it to death, or made about 200rwhp less than it should if it was done properly.
