Ok if this is the Delsol that im thinking about, Did the guy give you get like a bigger pully to put on the supercharger?? Because The previous owner , well the actual owner before the guy you got it from, He put a 12 lb pully on it and ran it for a couple weeks and it blew... So its not the orginal motor in the car and im not sure if its the 2nd or 3rd. And just another thing if you do decide to step the psi up make sure you have bigger injectors to make up for the air. Here's the thing As of now You probably have stock pistons and rods, Which are casted! What you want to get are Forged pistons and rods. And of course You will want your block sleeved. What forged pistons and rods does is it allows You to run 15 or 20 lbs or whatever your running of boost Without Melting the pistons unlike stock or (Casted).

20psi pulley :omg:


Rip the supercharger off, turbo it, and call it a day!

Sleeving the block would be overkill as well as rods. Only worthwhile mods would be possibly a water-air cooler to minimized the rediculous heatsoak, and possibly high compression forged pistons.

Id put on that built head, better rods, pistons. Also what injectors and fuel pump do you have in there currently? After that, 12lb pulley that bitch.

yeah i just found out it is only a 9lb pully. And the guy drove it for about a month running lean as hell and the engine crapped out. The guy with the widebody wants to know if he can get your number.

ya i believe the only reason it blew on him though is because he still had stock injectors and no tune.. if i put the 9lb pully on ill put bigger injectors on 2.. ya my number is 636-541-2971
