No idea lol honestly doubt anyone would know. You may have the same displacement as an LE5 but your head will flow better and I don't think anyone has ever gone that low pulley wise with a 2.4.

Yeah it rises quite a bit if you start really low in the rpms but being auto yours would just shift down and you might not notice it. I've floored it with rpms still in the 1k's before (I know not a good idea and I've only done that a couple times) and boost will start at like 8-9 and then rise to 15-16 by redline

Nobody that I've seen revs that high, probably mostly because of the vvt and cam phasers. If you are running an LSJ head though you wouldn't have to worry about that so with cams, springs, and neutral balance shafts you should be able to no problem

I meant did someone say that all the springs aren't the same even though you thought they were?

And sounds like you've got a hell of a build. Mind if I ask why you're staying supercharged or at least not upgrading to a TVS?
