Still beating dead horses I see. And for reference I was running 7600rpms on the stock valve train and now run 8+ on my built motor and stock dampener. When I pulled my stock block down there were no signs of any damage from doing so. To each there own. Does the ati dampener work yes. Is it required when ur car only sees 8k rpms for a split second no.
On a serious note, when I removed the stock valve springs, I could see how they handle blasts to 7k +.... They are tiny compared to my supertechs, but were fairly stiff.

Because I know how the run compared to the many 12.0 runs. I know the car therefor I know. So does others that were present at the track.
No. I sold the blower cams and will be back on the stockers for now.

One problem with those maps is they are calculated using inlet volume not rpm; which most ppl don't realize.
Inlet volume/sec is not directly related to rpm, meaning there's no good equation. Different temps, elevation, he'll even changing your air filter changes the relation between inlet vol/ rpm.
So stating a blowers efficiency is x rpm to y rpm is hardly any help at all when examining most compressor maps.
This one happens to have it, but most don't.
Just FYI for some of you.

Another thing to add is people don't know the tested sc is seeing no more then 10 psi and with no type of cooling when tested. The older M series superchargers were tested at 5 psi. And turbo's are typically tested at 15 psi. But you are 100% right most performance maps dont show sc rpm.
