I was just saying on a stock car with a stock fuel system(which the thread is based on) the 2300 looks like a better suited charger. The 2650 has to spun too low and the power curve shows it. 2300 delivers a better power curve at low boost.
You are wrong if you would want to give up that much torque across the rpm range at the power levels being discussed here. You also have to think about time spent at X part of the rpm range and shift extension. Dropping 90whp on a shift isn't ideal.
It's the same principal as putting a F1a-94 on a stock car and only spinning it 8psi. It's going to make all peak power. There is a reason why there are different size Chargers for different applications. The 2650 is a unit that likes to be spun harder. Look at the curve Mike posted. Even making 15psi, it still produces slightly less power under 4k rpm compared to a 2300 @ 12 psi. That tells me this unit needs to spin 15psi minimum.
Nothing wrong with that. On a application like yours, the 2650 makes sense. On a stock internal car running 10psi or less, I think a 2300 is a better choice.
