Have Seb run a compression test to make sure you don't have a slightly bent rod. If one cylinder is down, that's your issue.

After talking to someone else that has become a sc expert, he thinks I'm over spinning the blower and taking it out of it's efficiency range. It's spinning at almost 63000rpm, same pulley combo as my old blower but this blower is less efficient so it can't run at that rpm. The max rpm on this blower is 55000.

There shouldn't be any reason why the motor would have a bent rod, it was perfectly fine before. I say shouldn't, of course I'm not positive.

That makes even more sense. Blowing hot air at 19psi. I am no SC guy, that is for sure.

Do you know Eric Flores (q50sc) on Instagram? He's the one helping me out.

What are the variables? Obviously it’s the same dyno and tuner, I assume, what else changed? We’re the temps/humidity drastically different?

Bigger blower. Different efficiency ratings
