RE: 90 gt
what compression are you running? and what trickflow cam? stage 1 or 2 ? have you had your efi dyno tuned for air to fuel ratio, what air/fuel ratio are you running? what fuel pump/injectors do you have?
s/c it.... jmo, if moneys no matter get a kenne bell 2.2L blowzilla run up to 18psi of boost

If you decide on a supercharger, I would like to point out that Kenne bell's are going to run hot because compressing air like superchargers do, creates heat, and with a KB blower you have no way of extracting heat from the air charge, sure you can run gobs of boost but you can yeild more power with a lower boost rating because air is going to be cooler allowing more timing and more compression. Speaking of which what kind of compression are you running, that would be a good clue on which route you want to go. 8-9:1 compression is usually s/c or turbo country, while 9.5+ is what nitrous guys like to have.
