    ? Superchargers

    Can you run more than 7.5psi with just pump gas? I was reading on the magnacharger website and they said 7.5psi is pretty much it unless you want to destroy the engine because of compression ration. The more air forced in the more your compression goes up so I was just wondering what the most boost you could go with upgraded springs and rods and pump gas.

    you can run up to 12 with pump gas? That's cool. I was going to also ask what is the max psi on the 112? Thanks for answering my other question

    you can run way more that 7.5 on pump gas, some people are running up to 15 or 20. it all depends on the tune.

    Thats cool. I thought there were quite a few guys running more than 7.5 on pump gas. I was just double checking because of what Magnacharger was saying.

    i wouldnt run much more than that with a stock tune or whatever magnacharger gives you. but with a spot on tune you can go very high on pump gas
