What are you working on?

OK so I have been working on a long term build list for my GT.
Most are simple mods...springs, dampers, etc.
The big one is my choice of superchargers.
I would like to see 575/575 (hp/torque) and want it to be there at lower rpms.
So which SC would be the best choice for what I want?

EDIT: If you go with a phase 3 setup by adding ID1000s injectors you will be around the 640 HP numbers. You could also go with a stage 1 setup by dropping the BAP and using the stock 85mm pulley and be in the mid to high 500's. the 85mm pulley is about 6 psi while the 82mm pulley is 10 psi.

I am looking for a good streetable setup. I've heard that bad things happen over time when you get over 600 hp. I still want to be able to put 100k miles on the car.. I just want to have a little more fun getting there.
I've got a 3:55 gear and considered the 3:73 but I think I will just stick with what I've got.
You mentioned numbers of 616/544...i would like to see better torque numbers than that.

Also installed new black 5.0 badges on the car. No pictures because it's brutal outside and after sweating as much as I did, I said forget about it lol.

Definitely do not go 3.73s with the supercharger. The last thing I did was an axle swap with Clint to go from 3.73s back to 3.31s. You will be better off sticking with the 3.31s.
I don't know what to tell you about the torque. Every car is different. I think I made less torque on the 13 because I had LTs. LTs are good for higher horse power with a loss of some torque.

I'm thinking keeping with the stock headers and getting an H pipe with resonator delete and a good set of axlebacks will help some keeping the torque up. I can remove the cats in TN but don't really want that raspy sound.
Thanks for the info. I need to keep doing my research to decide exactly what I want to do.
It will be a ways down the road before I do it anyway. But I want to be sure of getting exactly what I want when it's time.

The new 2.9 whipple is going to be a beast of a blower for these coyote engines but in all honesty, every blower does very well on this platform. But, I like the OEM like quality of Roush/ VMP and Whipple.
