Default Get me to 500rwhp!

Hey guys well you can see in my sig what im aiming for. I have a built motor now with only 8.5 compression. the motor is good til 850hp+. Im looking to get somewhere in the 450-500rwhp range. Im looking for suggestions for setups. I have 4.10s so im looking into centri blowers and turbo setups. A turbo kit would be a lot more work with the lts and everything. I can weld and fabricate myself so thats really not a problem with any of the piping but in return i can make a lot more power but its going to get costly i know. Im really leanin towards a centri blower at this point and running some high boost. My car looks basically stock from the outside besides the springs and the rims. Im looking to make a nasty DD sleeper which is why im stickin to 450-500. MAybe once i get out of school ill really go nuts but for now im trying to keep it around the 500rwhp range. I know its going to cost big money so im trying to stay as cost effective as possible. So what would you guys suggest im talkin the whole setup fuel supply/intercoolers everything and why?
Thanks in Advance,
Greg

get yourself a big centri blower and just crank the boost man. My setup is good for 450 as it stands so I know that with a small amount of touching up (and forged internals) I can hit your goals. Just put a 2.xx" pulley on the blower to really use it... and you should be right where you want to be. Pick up a T-trim, or DS1C (isnt that the BIG procharger blower?)

I would recommend 60lb injectors though instead of 42lb'ers. You might as well do that upgrade now.

Not sure what fuel setup will get you over 500, I can tell you that JUST a SVT Focus pump got me to 450. Im sure that, + a KB BAP will supply enough fuel for 500 rwhp. Cams help me a lot in this situation, and seeing that you also have cams... you will be happy with your results.

I can get more specific if you want. Hope this helps!

The Paxton Novi2000, what I have , is good for 850-900hp. I love mine, even at a little over 410 rwhp it's a blast.
I too am looking to get up near 500 rwhp, so I will be watching your post. Good luck man. Hey but you know how it goes, after awhile, 500 isn't enough, then 600, 700, AHHHHHH!

Wait nvm return that and go with a mid sized turbo

Actually i'm thinking Twin-Screw now. Go with a 2.6L KB at about 10 PSI I/C

Wait.....now that I think about it....

okay so im going along the right route than with the centri and the high boost with a ic? Thats good. I know the guy i bought the motor from ran 22 psi from a vortech and made around 660rwhp. He said the BAP and svt pump was only good too 450rwhp for him though? Any ideas for a fuel setup?

I would suggest a Novi 2000, procharger F1A or Vortech YSI for the blower. Sell your cams and get a good set of blower cams. Around 15lbs of boost will get you 500rwhp on that engine (if you change your cams) so use a 10% overdrive crank and a 3.1-3.2 pulley. That will get you around 15lbs on all 3 blowers and keep belt slip down. Get either the TFS intake or the eddy.

For fuel you should change out all of your lines to braided with atleast -8 feed line. Use a good external pump like an A1000 or a couple of walbros. I would use 60lbs injectors so you have breathing room. I would also suggest a meth kit.
