see, thats whats good, you can change the boost with the pulley. So keep it tuned down for a while until you start upgrading... You should probably lay out everything you need on the table and go from there. s/c is not cheap, but very effective in making power. Its all on your budget.

How i look at it is your gonna do mods reguardless on n/a or s/c. So if you get mods for s/c setup, then your set for s/c. Cause thats what i am fasing now. I got a descent n/a motor but now i want to supercharge it and most of the mods i did will have to be changed out for something even better to support the s/c.

Its always good to get a plan laid out for what you want to do. Dont spend money twice. Plus this way you will see if its in your budget. Would you be happy with just a n/a motor? i am not. I want realiable streetable HP.

 

i dont know, if u can pull off a 13 sec 1/4 without porting or polishing or caming anything like JD did. id do that lol. it feels like more of a complete car, and then after that u can P&P ur heads and get cams... and then when ur beating supercharged cars with ur N/A motor, u can laugh at them even more

 

Do u guys think i would be able to get a better time by going the N/A route? or the s/c route? or do u think i should do all the modds that i wont have to throw out if i get a s/c (like throwing out 4:10s, pulleys, intake)?

 

Well thats if your happy with a 13 second time....

 

yeah i know now i would love a 13 second time, but im not sure in a few years i would be.

Do think i could get a 13 second time w/ a 5-6psi s/c?

 

personally, if i didnt know which route to go I would do everything that wouldnt make a difference if i went s/c or n/a first. Like gears and headers or suspension. If you got a good launching car and hooks up really well then youll be lowering your et that way. Youll win more races with a car that hooks up than a car with more hp. Cause adding more hp is just making it harder for you to hook up on the street. And with 4.10's its very hard to hook up. There is another post i'm dissapointed that he just put 4.10's in. Not goona lower your et or win races by spinning all the way threw 3rd. Theres a lot of research to do if you dont know what you want or do. And its easy to wasted money parts that hurt you et more than it helps..

 

Thanks.
Do u guys think i should get 4.30s w/ all the modds in the N/A opinion or should I get 4.30s. THis is only my weekend car. and I dont put many miles on it. I would like to get into the 12s

 

just make sure if u get the gears that u will be getting D/Rs in the near future. not right away... but make sure u get the D/Rs around when u get the 410s or 430s if u decide to go that way, otherwise it might not work out as well as u want... im getting the nittos in a couple months so hopefully ill be alright with street tires and 410s till then
