I’m nit asking this from a simple who’s got the most or setting records which generally tends to be the The reason as we’ve already got plenty of information on that ..
What I’m interested in and I think now is a good time to ask this as the gen1 has been around a while so there should be a lot more data on long term modded gen1 stock block 3.5’s...seeing all the gen2 running 700rwhp ,waiting to see the longevity on that for sure,lol..
As I’m still on the fence about running the stage5 CRP’s and the mainfolds with the addition fuel requirements first on my stock motor ...I’m not looking to blow it up or set any speed records..trying to decide whether or not to just bite the bullet and go with a Forged motor first..
I just enjoy hauling the mail to 120-150mph safely...(not in traffic ) I don’t do hard launches, it’s always off idle I can’t use the brake and gas together yet with my hand controls..
I know ive said it before that I’ve heard 460rwhp is the limit to be safe..RMB said that and blew a few at 475rwhp but that was also I’m guessing in the earlier days before the gen2 ...
We have better tuning and fuel today than in 2011-2015..
So let me know your RWHP the mods and how many miles you have put on it and if you ran it hard as many do..I’m just trying to get a better idea of the reliability lately and if it blew up what happened? How long it lasted & if you have the cause and the tune pls.:also if you have taken any precautions that you think have help prolong the reliability after throwing turbos on the stock motor which has allowed to to keep on running...I know there’s some guys running over 500rwhp on stock motors just haven’t heard any updates..
