I am happy with my 6 lb. baby!
I believe for a 9 lb. you may have to consider updating some other parts, like better gaskets, head bolts, injectors.
Make sure you some researching on what is involved in going with that much boost. You want that 5.0 to last and remain reliable.

I know my 0 to 60 mph is 5.2 on the stock tires seen in the photo. When I put the wider ones on this spring it should hook a little better, but more importantly handle even better on corners.
I am somewhere in the 13's for th 1/4 would be just a guess. The car has a really good pull right off the line now with the control arms.
A write-up I read when reviewing the Powerdyne says the supercharger alones knocks off between 1 and 1.5 secs in the quarter for my car.
The exhaust was a HUGE HP gain in combo with the blower... definetely knocked off quite a bit more.
If you have the money, go for a Procharger with an intercooler. You won't have to tap the oil pan with those superchargers either and go with 8 lbs of boost.
That will get you way into the 300's for HP.

im kind of suprised that the car wouldnt be in 13s also. The 94/95s wernt that bad i thought... but i guess they are heavy, with an underated motor...
