It is a vortech charger on a ls/vtec if that matters.
good news is i picked up 30 hp off of cams. 265@6 psi...not too shabby


It went to 10 psi because the engine can't suck in as much air out of vtec...

Did you change ur valve springs and retainers for that cam swap?

hopefully you did.. or your valves are going to meet the pistons at high revs do to the valves floating.
