No it's not.

First of all you need to know your elevation and temperature to calculate KPA.

Lets say you are at sea level with an ambient air pressure of 100kpa. To convert to PSI minus 100 and divide by 7.

So in his case.

202-100=102
102/7= 14.57 psi

My Z is built for drag racing. It made 480 whp on pump on low boost. I weighed the car and without me in it it weighs 2250.

Swapping out for a VVL head and going e85. I should clear 600-625 whp and am hoping to see some low 10 second passes on slicks

You're right. I forgot 101.3 kPa = 1 atm. Divide by 6.8xx

Nice setup, I'd like to to see more vids. It would be a wicked ride with a good launch.

Haven't checked into this thread in a while, glad to see it's still moving.

The GTO-pan LSx guy needs to invest in a baffled pan and an Accusump. I use the 3qt racing can with the 34psi EPC valve on race cars that spend most of their times high in the revs (with an unshimmed pump your hot idle pressures will drop below that and you'll flood the pan with too much oil on a street motor).

480 whp was made with this setup on 17 psi

Tomei 272 cams
Stock head
Arp studs and Cometic HG
ACL race bearings
Stock bottom end

Peakboost manifold
SC6176 on a .82 housing (I started my build before these billet units were out)
Intake Manifold
100 MM throttle body
Haltech E8

Next setup plans to be VVL head , 8500 RPM and 25-28 psi on E85 with a lot more timing through the entire powerband.

what kind of timing are you running now? i recommend going E85 now and run it and see where you are at. I am close to the powerrange you want to be at and like you i have a stock head as well reving to 8100 without solid lifters.

I haven't looked at my map for while since my laptop is broken.

I already pulled my motor and while I setup for e85 I am switching to the VVL head. The size of the ports are so much larger than any other sr head.

Also I'm looking forward to no more floating rockers.

Are you going to build the bottom end while it is out or run it stock?

Nope, have no intentions on building it. Right now my goals for the car are to make it run low 10's maybe a high 9 on a stock bottom end/stock head with n1 cams. Then I plan on just enjoying it for 2-3 years, the eventual plans will be for it to run mid 8's with an sr20.

8500 RPm isnt much, and 28 psi I wouldnt call a lot either. I think the stock bottom end will be just fine.

Typically when I build cars I dont take into consideration what everyone says online, until I actually see that my motor throws a rod out the side and have first hand experience, I am not upgrading it.

that would be a very expensive failure because it will probably take the turbo out with it when it goes. hope it does not happen to you.

only way to go fast

2600, 6.3 something.. that was a 1.49 60.. best so far on 2 psi boost

it seems to be holding up just fine, no wheel hop, big sidewall gives alot more than a street tire, barely glazing the tires over. Tire is still tapping the fender in the 60 ft, time to get a bigger hammer

That's awesome man. People underestimate these engines and also use shit parts and shit tunes, blow them up and then come to the forum to tell the world how x horsepower will sling a rod on said engine. Keep us updated on the build.

are you going to cut the valve reliefs bigger so you can run a bigger cam with the VVL head on those DET pistons?

I would say you had wheel hop that's what caused the broken axle hooking wasn't the issue

Thanx for the offer but I don't need any tuning services in taken care of by OSR and myself. But I'm more then willin to make pulls for free at least.
No more power can't be pulled from my set up wothout more psi and fine where it's at with it's stock head for now

You do realize you cant run anything but stock P11 cams on a stock DET bottomend right? Anything else and you'll be tapping valves with your pistons. Not to mention N1 cams are garbage for forced induction. NA/FI have different cam profiles and the N1s are obviously optimized for NA.
