Whipple, Edelbrock, Roush, Saleen... boost is boost, they might have slight differences in peak numbers etc, but ultimately they all do the same thing.... unless you get one of those hair dryers

Exactly. There are some people out there though who get REALLY emotional if you don't choose a blower that they like though. It's really strange :/

If you don't already have one, get a good pcv catch can. I use a Moroso.
What do I need the pcv catch can for?

Man there sure are a lot of haters on the svt forums. I made the same post there and there are some people rather upset about my decision:

Appears that alot of the SVT folks are highly opinionated yet somewhat lacking in knowledge. I wouldn't talk blowers over there.

BTW, you should be somewhere right around ~480 rwhp/450rwtq with that Coyote once she is installed with the 3.5 pulley.

I read through the posts on the thread. That one guy has a lot of opinions based only upon his opinions.

You made a good choice with a blower that in the future can provide you with almost whatever amount of power you choose.

A lot of the whipple guys gave me **** over buying a KB. Whatever. I stopped caring about what others "feel" a long time ago.

I am hopin for higher numbers. Brenspeed got 526 rwhp out of theirs. Maybe the altitude will hurt me though.
