Ask Code and ZW99GT what they'd reccomend. As Far as the easier and more streetable of the two would be. they can tell you first hand
I am sure he wants to spend $10k+ on the motor, gut the car and only run low 12's on motor. Not taking a shot at Code here, his car is nice, but he built to run on spray from the get go, but decided to see what he could do N/A before hitting the N2O. A built *** N/A 2V will have a tough time making 330 rwhp and if LS1's are your target you better run FI of some kind, because they run mid 12's with bolt ons in most cases.

My point was that its not easy nor is it a good idea for a DD. I meant ask Code and ZW what they'd reccommend as far as reliablilty and street manners. I'm sure they would tell him that FI is a much easier cheaper route than N/A. Although it would be cool to have a N/A4.6 puttin down sick numbers,itsnot really a logical choice

EXACTLY right JD. I had this motor built for the juice. I was just having a hell of time seeing what I could get out of it N/A. When the car gets back, I will still run quite abit N/A, but since I will be running bigger races...I will need the juice to be competitive. Running the car N/A was very helpful in getting the car's suspension set up. I can't wait for the 200 shot.

It really shouldnt even be a question. You HAVE to go FI in some way shape or form to go fast with these cars. The EASIEST way, would be to slap a 150 shot on it, the most expensive/least gratifing way would be to do a big N/A build, and the BEST way would be get a Vortech/Procharger.

You say you have $9000? S/C, no questions.....


Nitrous powns superchargers like all the time. I thought you guys knew that already.
