i just need help on what to due to my motor to handle it i only really want to run about 6 pounds and not blow up lol
i was just going to go and do head studs but i am pretty sure i would go boom lol my motor is a newer one piece seal block with scat crank and i beam rods and it has je pistons 11.25 to 1 comp i am running a 534 lift comp cams energy cam and dart iron eagle ss 2.05 1.90 steal heads and i have a prof products huricane intake big single plane and i run a holley 890 double pump and i have 1.5 rollor rockers and i spray the motor but i am not going to after turbo unless i still can

any help or advice would be greatly welcomed lol

11.25:1 with iron heads is alot for a turbo application! Are you going to intercool it? What fuel? Are you going to run a blowthrough carb? The carb you have wont work unless modified... I'd stick with the spray until you can afford a better setup with lower compression if I were you.

thanks yeah i am going to oh and just a fun fact i beleive he said he was your mechanic but a few months back a guy came in a dark blue newer ram to buy tires and exhaust and stuff from me lol

if your budget only allows a kit like that in that price range, then i would not go turbo.

Also the notion of running 6psi sounds good in theroy, but trust me, you'll be at 15 to 20 in no time. Boost is highly addicting and the turbo thing is more then just buying an offshore turbo kit from ebay. You need to address cam, compression, carb, converter and gearing in addition to adding a turbo.

and then a bigger turbo . then you start to think hey my 40 yr old chassis AND BLOCK cant possibly handle 1000 +hp ,then you make deals with the devil, oh yeah dont forget the drive shaft and the fact that all you originally wanted to do was a cheap 6PSI turbo thing , oops grenading motors can make you buy real race stuff .next thing you know your POS is running so fast that tech officials corral you after the second pass cause they thought the first pass was a timing error or a leaf blew through the lights. then pull out your advanced et lic., chassis cert and show em that you were actually legal to run that fast!!!!! JUST REMEMBER TO TAKE THE HUB CAPS OFF !!!!
