Hot Dang,
Hold onto your hat!! I wonder what numbers that setup was putting down.
I didn't think the LS7 was the ideal setup up for S/C but I'm sure good things can come of it.

That's my guesstimate too. 550-600 rwhp and no belt issues, thanks to low boost.
Vortech makes a quiet head unit also... could be stealthy

Hmm.... I'm running 11.1 CR as well so this might be a good option for me. I can't wait for more info!

With very thin cylinder walls and a relatively high CR, I would think about 5lbs is all you would be able to force down its throat without

Don't believe the hype about the thin cylinder walls. I know of a few LS7 blocks (non-stock Z06) running around on much more than 5lbs of boost.

Thanks for posting!! It looks great. 5 psi yielding 550 - 600 rwhp with stock driveability. I'll take one, sign me up.
Headers will probably even make this more potent because you can spin the Vortech faster.
