lol... cobra killer is probably the only one even close to 30 lbs around here... he's somewhere right there. As far as what parts you need, everything... and I do mean EVERYTHING under the sun... probably multiples of a lot of drivetrain parts too. Car pretty much won't be streetable.

People are making over 700hp with just 16-18PSI, 30 is nuts.

Those are race blowers capable of producing 30 psi........not something most would run on the street. I have the JT Trim on my car now which is capable of 27 psi and is also considered a "race only" blower. Made 663 rwhp with a T Trim which is even smaller than the JT so if your'e looking to make some big power you don't need 30 psi. You need a well thought out combination.

Even if you are boosting 30psi, it doesn't mean it is boosting it efficiently.
