Default Please Give me some insight on what would be better.

Ok I am so confused on what to do. I bought a complete Pi Swap kit and a Vortech V1 S-Trim, Both for a pretty good price. Now the problem im having is weather to run the SC with with pi swap with the compersion issue. Or just run the SC by its self. I called a local shop today and they said that i should sell the pi swap kit and just buy a pi motor that way i can add the SC and the compression wont be so high. My goal is to get over 400 wrhp and ill be happy so i was wondering if its possible on a NPI motor, if so what would i need to do. Could i just do all the bolt-ons and then add 125-150 shot and call it a day or is there more that im going to need to do. I know power doesnt come cheap but im looking for the cheapest why right now. Sorry for such a long post I have just been told so many different ****ing things i dont know what to do. Thanks for all the help.

The cheapest would be just add the nitrous and call it a day, but considering how cheap the pi swap is too, i'd still do that as well.

considering that you already have the SC i'd just bolt that onto your NPI setup and sell the PI swap kit, then you can invest some of that money into a set of cams or long-tube headers or something like that.

only problem with that is if you don't already have a bigger fuel pump and fuel injectors, you're going to need to buy those too to run the SC.

for a street-driven car i think you'll be happier if you use the SC, buf it you want to run quick down the 1/4 mile then nitrous would be your best bet.
