xcharger (xtreme) seems to be the best all around. Vortech has higher numbers but not a flat curve.

you can run the car nearly stock on low boost but if you want to get more out of it put on ported heads and put a nice cam in. also to push higher boost or more aggressive cams you will need to swap the internals (check supersixmotorsports.com). you're talking a bunch of money and you will certainly be fast.

I'm not looking into cams and all the heads and internals. I'm looking at running it stock without risking blowing my motor because i wont have the money to fix it Haha

get an xcharger and if you want to push a little more and get better performance, get the xtreme.

I'm thinking about.doing an x charger and then later on internal and all the stuff you suggested. would you happen to know x charger price or how much it by itself puts out

No matter what S/C you get make sure you get it tuned correctly.. I learned the hard way on the importance of a good tune...

Hey thxs man.. Yeah I was pissed . My car has been outside of the dealership for like three weeks now. They are closed today but I was like what the hell, I'll go by to see if they started on it. Went around the corner, car was not parked where it usually is. Stopped look through the dealerships garage door window and she's on the lift. Hope to get it back next week. Hey I'm going home in Aug, do you know of any car shows happening in Louisiana around that time??
