How Much Boost?

[chevpwr]

What is the max boost can you safely run on a stock '07 with a V2 S trim, meth & 91 octane? I think the it is making 8psi.

I didn't think this would be that hard of a question. I am new the the Corvette, I currently have a s/c mustang making 775rwhp at 25psi that I drive with 91 octane and meth.

Depends on the tuner. GM says 0 psi

Seriously all depends on how the tune is setup and if all the moons align. We have a few customers pushing 15+ psi on stock motors but it won't last forever.

depends what engine. I didnt see anything in your profile. is it an LS3 or Ls7? Stock heads? Stock block?

[Skunkworks]

With safe tune on LS2 probably 8-10 psi for longevity... But what constitutes safe tune, will have as many opinions as safe boost.

Maybe better question is HP? With cam, headers... you will make power at lower boost level.

All stock LS2 with Vortech V2 (A & A kit with intercooler) and AIS meth injection. I want to add a little more boost 10-12lbs and headers/exhaust. Looking for a true 600rwhp.

10 psi, 600 whp is about what I would feel safe running on stock configuration.

I make 600 with 10 lbs. of boost, I would think that since you have meth, you could run a little less boost and still reach 600.

Mr. Big can answer this question easy!!!!

The OP first asked what the max boost safely on a '07 was, then completely changed directions by wanting 600 rwhp. My half ass answer was towards his 2nd statement.
