GMPP ported heads with PD blower

I've done quite a bit of searching and there is not much info on power gains with boosted ls3/l99 after GMPP ported heads installed

Anyone that has results to share it would be appreciated

I have the GPI ported heads with my LSA conversion. About 20 to 25 RWHP gain. The GMPP heads are a great deal IF you're pulling the heads anyway. Honestly, the stock heads are pretty good as they are so only do it if you are trying to get all possible hp. It you go turbo keep the stock ones...

Heads flow more, which means less boost. If you turn the boost up to where it was before you will see gains. If you leave it were it was, you might not see any gains.

For example
Stock heads 600rwhp at 9psi
Ported heads 600rwhp at 7psi

Same cylinder pressure, same power, less boost. Now if you pulley down to 9psi again you will make more power. Or just don't touch the heads and pulley down now.
