Respectfully, I'd have to see that to believe it.
I agree! That's what we're here for

Overspinning a centri blower on a car that mainly a street car is a bad idea because the head units won't last very long.
FYI folks, overspinning takes place when the impeller speed is driven beyond it's original design and is no longer within it's efficiency. Not to be confused with the term "out of blower" (which is @100%). We have no plans to "overspin" (beyond 100%) the D1, my friend, and we'll get what we get when the time comes. Your absolutely correct that overspinning is a bad idea for longevity!

For the record, this thread was NOT about David's car or questioning TS's integrity. I recently had a conversation on the phone with Clint disucussing applications and he mentioned the shop is also a Procharger dealer in addition to KenneBell. I hadn't heard anything recently about Procharger on our cars, so I thought I would ask here. That's kinda the point of places like, right?

I had a Vortech'd 93 Cobra on a stock block making over 500rw for many years. Everyone will tell you it's a ticking time bomb anything over 500rw on the stock block. I know how to make a car live a long time, it's all in the tune and treating it right. Overspinning is a very common mistake with centri cars because RPM is what makes boost, so naturally people tend to rev the shit out of them. The key is having the car run with how you intend to drive it, within it's efficiency range.

Your car is also a six speed. Boost will drop off on each shift momentarily.

Feel free to ask Clint if we talked on the phone about it.

No record needed, Stevie! I never once took anything wrong (if you thought so). Solid questions and solid thread! I hoped to be as informative as I could in answering them while bringing other facts to light!
