Like the title says.

I know alot has to do with tuning but whats to much, some are running 8psi,9.5,10psi but whats the breaking point for the internals.

Thanks

How about with 0 boost?:D :mad:

You need to ask this on lxforums.com where there have been ten times more sc'd engines.

Youngmedic blew his motor running too much boost on his 6.1

If I recall correctly wasn't that with the bigger V2 T-trim Vortech head unit he upgraded to and ran like 12psi?

So by how much boost, or was it because the tune was not ajusted for the extra boost?

My goal is 11.5, i dont have a cage and dont want to get one and i dont want to get kicked off the track.

He didn't upgrade the blower until he got the 426....He blew the 6.1 with the standard V3 Vortech blower by changing his pulleys and upping the boost...It went POP

To run consistent 11.5's you'll need this stuff ....

Vortech Kit
Stage 2 injectors
Headers
Heads
Cam


Or a badazz 440 or 426 N/A

And by that time, you'll need an upgraded tranny and/or t-case :)

Look at post 4 in this thread on YoungMedics old setup.

Or just run a big shot of juice:D

When I was at HHP for a dyno tune there was a Chally on the dyno before me.... He had a stock block 6.1 with a Kenne Belle pushing around 10psi

Got some cell phone pics I think.... It was pushing over 550 to the wheels

Anyway after he left.... Josh said to me the guy probably wouldnt care if he blew up his motor. He will just get a bigger one LOL :D
That gives me an idea that Josh was thinking his motor was pushing just about all the boost it could handle...

Some guy named Adam, a longtime friend of YoungMedic, blew his engine in California on stock boost.

I'm running the 30 tooth pulley on mine, which yields 10 PSI worth of CFM's. In the past I've seen it spike at 9.5 to 10, but recently I'm only getting 8.5. I think my pheolonic spacers are leaking and it's time for them to go.

With proper tuning and a visible wideband or EGT gauge I believe the life of the engine will be greatly increased. I'm keeping my fingers crossed. :)

The guy i know named Adam is a POS lol....and he blew up his motor because he had it tuned over the phone....what a dummy

I'm glad he got rid of his Srt8 cuz i'm tired of hearing from him :D

He's a real piece of work. I talked to him a few times on the phone and I can tell you one thing, Paul, watch your back around that guy.

NO way over the phone!!! What was this guy thinking:confused:

So just to clarify, there have not been any blown engines from running the canned vortech tune, or a cmr vortech tune from a reputible vendor on here using all the vortech kit components, supercharger, pulley, injectors, ect.

Adam from ST Motorsports (who tuned Pauls jeep) ran a Kenne Bell on his stock block Challenger that made 801rwhp on race gas with a stock fuel pump with a BAP.

FUEL SYSTEM - Kenne Bell 17V BOOST-A-PUMP™ and 50lb injectors included in all kits. Good for 650RWHP with stock pump. Use 20V BOOST-A-PUMP™ with 70-80lb injectors and stock pump for up to 800RWHP. ST Motorsports test car made 765RWHP (900 engine HP) @ 20 psi with 100% stock motor and car using 20V BOOST-A-PUMP™ and 80lb injectors and there was another 35HP or 801RWHP/914EHP, the exact same HP numbers the same MAMMOTH™ Kit made at 23 psi on the Shelby GT 500 car and engine dyno. Still believe you need 2 pumps, bigger pumps and larger lines on your Dodge?

Damn!!!!!
