I wouldn't go over 18 psi unless you're using race fuel or your tuner pulls spark and/or richens it up.
I would imagine a 3.5/4lb may get you over 18 with your cr and a 2.3l whipple.
Someone here will know for sure...
Even 18 psi is a bit aggressive for 10.1 c/r I think. I would recommend you go with a stock lower and just use the 3.5" pulley that comes with the 2.3L Whipple. 15 psi is what you should see with that combo, any higher and you basically start threading the needle so to speak with tuning.
Any plans on using higher octane?

Naw. Just 93 pump gas. With my Trilogy I'm at 18psi 3.0 upper and 4lb lower. Been like this for since 2010. I don't race the car at the track and just weekend driving. She's kept in the garage mostly. Just a lil spirited driving here and there. I'm track retired though lol.

What kind of horsepower numbers do you see on your Trilogy at 18 PSI? im at 15psi on my trilogy 93 octane with 100% methanol. Runs good at 80 degrees and Below. anything over 80 and it's a dog with this Texas Heat!
[QUOTE=Themarauderguy;1563536]
488 rwhp 494 tq this was like 8 years ago when I got a dyno tune week before I upgraded the dual fuel pumps etc. Actually I checked my records I maxed at 17 psi. But it runs close to 16.5 psi actually.
Did you tune for the meth? That's something I never wanted to do incase I ran low. Never wanted the car to be reliant on meth but as a addition to help it to cool. I have a kit on my car as it stands, I just need to replace the pump for the kit. But honestly I never really cared to use it.

The max PSI should be dependent on your tuner and his abilities to keep the detonation threshold low. 20psi on 93oct is a lot of boost for a low compression engine. Your setup is high compression so be careful.
I have seen a few Cobras run high compression Aluminators with high boost but they were corn feed.

My Trilogy ran for years @13.5psi in the Mississippi heat. Boost was good through the power range and would only experience heat soak after beating on it. My TVS is @20psi, the boost comes up way faster and the only way to describe it is violent. Heat soak on the TVS is definitely less frequent but the power is just awesome.
I was at Jerry's shop yesterday and saw the brackets.
Reading this thread, I asked jerry about em..
He said just send the money!

You "feel" the difference because you want to "feel" the difference. Since you just spent money on the upgrade you "have" to feel the difference
I'm looking to eliminate the double pump process I have to follow right now to get the pedal hard
