Default RE: Whipple and Strut Tower Brace

very well stated and extremely accurate.....

i was tearing up the countryside this morning (with my 450rwhp),
wondering what 550rwhp would feel like . i was thinking about building
a forged engine this winter, just to be able to turn up the boost.....

It never stops with superchargers. After you put one in, you want even more power, which leads you to a new pulley set, which leads you to a new forged bottom end, which leads you to LT headers, which lead you to aone piece drive shaft, which leads you to a different gear ratio, which requires stronger LCA and rear suspension parts, which leads you to a new K member with torque limiters, which leads you to billet this and forged that, and now you need a tower brace that will require a new tall cowl hood, and on and on and on.

Anyone who thinks putting in an SC for 6 grand is all their is to it, is just plain naive.
