What lsa? Iv been in some ls1's with very similar cams on 114lsa's and one was later supercharged and one will be soon. From what everyone says 114-116lsa will be best, I think Kingston has a 112 cam s/c but I think from talking to him was going to a wider lsa down the track. Seen some results of 113lsa cams decent sized making good power and times with turbos and no problems. Sorry for the ramble on there.
Nothing to do with LSA......overlap is the killer, bleeding boost as they say
Do you have the cam card?
With 99.99% of off the shelf cams a wider LSA reduces overlap, so I'd be thinking LSA has heaps to do with it.............of course there are a few cams that differ
You can supercharge with any cam you want. It'll just change the powerband a bit, it isn't the end of the world.
my lsa is 112 .. thanks every1 for the help and thanks sirnemesis thats the kinda answer i was looking at.
