I ask because I'd love to see one. I bumped the boost on My 1994 Mustang and I am get 3 psi at 3k rpm, an it feels great, i think 15psi total, I need to double check. Horsepower is at 650 engine.

P.S. Marco where you at?
There have been a couple of high boost/low compression supercharged cars.. JCarp had a RMS Stage III kit that ran 14psi @ ~9.0:1 compression.. It put down near 400rwhp and 320ish torque if I remember correctly..
