If i was gonna buy the kit from MPH they said the install would have been 600 bucks

Dunno what the charge would be if you bought it someplace else, I think pretty much the same though

This was for a centrifgual. What blower are you considering?

I'm really not sure yet. I'm not even positive if I'm gonna do a blower first. But it would prob either be k bell 1.7 or procharger possibly a vortech but I wan't a loud one.
What would you do cams or blower first?

Blower. If you do cams first but you know your going to go with the blower you will have to install stage 2 blower cams, and not make as much power N/A. Plus, there is no comparsion between the difference a blower makes and what cams make.

I wish I had gone with stage 2 blower cams so I wouldn't have to swap em out later on. I gained about 30 RWHP at 6000 RPM and like 10 RWHP peak with the cams. I gained 135 RWHP peak with the blower, and god knows how much more at 6K

So if I went with cams now I would have to change them later because there is a difference in N/A cams and blower cams?
How do you like your blower and are there any negative things about it?

You could run blower cams n/a according to VT but it would not run as good as the N/A cams will. You would not see as good of gains and prolly loose TQ until you put the blower on.

I am absolutly in love with the SQ. It is really streetable down low, you can run around all day and stay out of boost, drives like a normal car. Floor it and it just pulls and pulls right to redline.

You can go with n/a cams now if you only intend to put the blower on and leave it alone. If you plan on going with a built shortblock later and lots of power, you need to stick to the blower cams or you will end up buying new ones later.

I got mine here:

http://modularpowerhouse.com/product...25aacd7598feb3

This is everything you need, including a tune. The tune is almost the best part of the kit, these guys REALLY know their stuff about 2v tuning.
