Supercharge LAP
I decided to finally go SC instead of TC, dont flame about TC being better because i know it is for hp number and etc...
My question is how much power can the stock internals handle on the '10 2.2, Ive read about 350WHP(ish) turbo'd Gen-II blocks. But I was curious if anyone knew how much more?
Also will the stock exhaust have to be replaced? Im doing a cat delete hopefully this weekend, if that makes a difference.

You can stay stock exhaust (cat removal is a huge help), but there's no good reason to. A nice aftermarket exhaust like the GMPP that sounds clean and flows way better than stock will help out quite a bit.
You won't make 300+whp on a blower setup anyway, so you shouldn't have internal problems. I'd suggest keeping it under 15psi as that seems to be the good safe limit for the current crop of boosted 2.2/2.4 guys, but if it was me i'd just pound it til it gave up, then put some pistons/rods in it when you get to that point.

Only reason I asked is because this way i can get the blower on before the snow comes and dont have to worry about exhaust right away. Dont want to go drop a huge amount of money right away on the car.

M90 can work, takes a ton of work though, ask 100%meth about it. I've run stock exhaust on the mp62 with a small pulley, its real damn quick but still you're leaving a ton of power on the table.

i messaged him, its the mp90 (newer gen of the m90) that he used. But there are builds on the internet of people putting m90's on the L61 2.2's..
