[QUOTE="stangfreak, post: 16408776, member: 10655"] so my 2.9 whipple, at 22-23lbs on the returnless setup made 710rwhp 650rwtq. Tuner said you need a new fuel system its maxed out. Its on the edge. we did a return setup, I then added more boost to the car, 25lbs, ms109, and the car made no more power. It made a little less. I don't remember the exact numbers. so more boost, better fuel, bigger fuel system, nothing gained. so I decided to drop the boost. Not going to leave the car on 25lbs with ms109 if its not going to make more power. I am spinning the blower and its useless. so why keep that much boost. we put the original pulley back on my car, so it brought it back down to 22-23lbs, put it on the dyno and now the car made 690rwhp 635rwtq. so we looked at the weather conditions. The car when it made less power with the new fuel system, was dynoed on a colder day than when it made 710. so I think, even a 2.9 will get maxed out at 25 26lbs of boost on a stock motor or something is wrong with the fuel system. sometimes weird shit happens. And speaking of the 2.3 and efficiency, a long time ago on modularfords, someone did make the behemoth inlet for the 2.3 whipple. Trying to see if it will work like the crusher setup for the bigger blowers. To my memory, the 2.3 whipple with the behemoth, actually made less power. so the stock 2.3 inlet was efficient and designed perfectly for that blower and anything bigger would just make it worse. Again, strange. [/QUOTE]
