Default Joe’s verdict

Im not using any cooling, thats why Im getting it dyno tuned, so I wont have detonation problems, not so much for the extra hp. That alone is costing 500 bucks, but considering the cost of a chip (300 bucks), its only 200 bucks more.

I would buy a twEECer rt..... so you can make changes with no more tunes or chips.
those 4:10's I sold you will be a bit much..better have some drag radial....also with 4:10 you run the risk of over rev'in the s/c.. I try to fide my form I have on what gear,pulley will net rpms on the charger

I didn't intend to supercharge when I got the 4.10's, but even so Im not gonna change them. Im plan on adding lower control arms after and Nitto radials after my stock tires go. I love the way the car shifts and drives with 4.10's, it feels much more like a sports car now. Traction won't be a problem.

what is the max spin speed of this 'charger you'll going to get with the permission of the boss?*L*
MiNE is 50,000 I'm at around 41,000-42,000 so I'm about max with my 14psi pulley and 3:73. i really could use a bigger unit. I run 2 fuel pumps...190 and a 100 t-rex with rev control..so if one fails during a run I'm still good to drive home and replace it

the v1 Im getting is new, just released two weeks ago from vortech and hasnt been added to their site yet. It flows 1200cfm vs 1000 that the regular v1 or v2 flows, and max impeller speed is 50k I believe. Its good for 20# boost, although I will be running an 8# pully with a power pipe for the other 2#. I planned on running just 1 255# intank pump.
