You are correct about plead but just for future reference "plee" is not a word- it is supposed to be "plea" so before you start cutting down other people and try to act smart, make sure you can pull it off. I think that adds to the fails of this thread. Just my opinion

For $600 you aren't going to get much action. I understand it is not a cheap endeavor, but the people on here are stingy, the ones looking to stay blower are not looking for huge power, and the 5 of us that actually want to make mid 300's on the blower are not enough to warrant such a project. Just my thoughts.

And it is my understanding that that is the reason why a blower boosting upwards of 20 pounds are not seeing the results to the ground. Twinscrew for exaple.
But a Turbo set-up at 21 pounds makes 401 WHP.....All that is due to just the intake manifold? Surly some of the power loss we see is due to the blower needing power to make power....

Wicked, it doesn't quite work that way. The volumetric airflow (CFM) does not change between compressors. Omega's point was the actual airmass can be greater or less in the same volume of air because of temperature.
CFM (volumetric airmass) will be the same at a given pressure (psi) across all compressors on the same engine. Because of heat, the air can be more or less dense at the same pressure and volumetric flowrate. Its actually airmass and not CFM that dictates power since airflow ratio is a ratio of the mass of air to the mass of fuel.

When I flow tested my test mules:
Flow measured by;
flow measured @ X pressure, Y temperature
where X pressure is varied along set Y temperature... then repeated at next temperature level
IC effeciency measured by;
Pressure and temp pre IC vs pressure and temp post IC.
Therefore a good idea of temp and pressure loss can be calculated.
I took my results one step further in my design and factored in assumed pressure loss due to IC cooling effect, and found the actual IC pressure loss due to restriction.
No big deal

If you can't pull reasonable power out of an LSJ, you need to stop modifying cars.
Sorry guys... just telling the truth here.
Edit:
Wow... this is coming from a guy who can't even figure out what re-flash is included in the GM stage kits...

Well in my first post I just stated that I didn't see the point in 1000-2000 bucks for 20-30 horse. I didn't put no technical specs up or whatever. Thats all I said. Thank you for looking at my other posts. I asked bout the reflash cause I didn't know. I have always worked on SBC V8's. And looking at how many posts you have I see you don't have anything better to ******* do than talking ****. I didn't single you out in my first post and point my comments towards you so back the **** up.
Here we go...
You assumed that the IM would be $1k-2k and would only give 20-30hp.
I KNOW FOR A FACT that it will yield higher results, and shouldn't cost more than $600.
Don't go around assuming things, and bitching about stuff you haven't' looked into. That's one thing that pisses off a lot of people around here, including me.
As far as my posts being useless.... look again....
Beyond that, most people have learned thus far that being civil, and politely PM-ing me gets the good info quicker than being a dick. I know that I don't post up the real detailed stuff, but to be honest, CSS is kind of a n00b haven...

well seeings how im the one begging for a new intake manifold (and me and omega have been working on this for a good 6 months together) with me saying in the first post on who would be willing to pay 600 or a little more for a new one should let u know off that bat thats it not gonna be 2 grand
