I almost hate when these discussions come up because I keep fluctuating between which blower I should get. It's still a while off, but I just recently had decided that I would just go the cheap route and get a vortech centri, but now you're making me think I should go with my original plan of a whipple.

Maybe I'll just stay N/A and waste some money on LT's and the FAST intake or something. I suppose the FAST intake will void the warranty anyway. Am I right?

The FAST intake isn't available yet, is it?

How many of you guys pushing this kind of power can afford to replace the block incase a rod fails?

Does the whipple have a 5psi pulley?

So of the three twin screws which is the easiest to install? I'm think saleen, but maybe whipple.

Procharger doesn't seem to be the most popular, judging by the above posts....but that's the one I chose for 2 reasons. Boost comes in late, so driving around town at low rpms is like driving stock (daily driver). The Prochargers are easily upgradeable to much higher boost levels. I cannot comment on any other system...they may be better. Regardless of flavor you choose, the tune is critical. A dyno-tune is a must. My tuner wants toupgrade my MAF to safely go up a little on the rpms which are presently limited to 6100. Rwhp should increase to 500. Even with the dyno-tune, my stock internals may be on borrowed time, so I am planning on built engine, but want to change transmission first.

i dont think you have to worry about the block unless your going 500+ hp fellas

the mechanic that did my install said that he had never seen a kit as nice as the whipple, and he has a KB on his truck.

How much is that at the rear wheels? I want as much as possible at the rear wheels without worrying about my engine going pop.

Ok, seems that alot of us have an opinion on this, so Ill throw mine in here as well.

I think you might want todecidewhere in the RPM range you want the power. Then ask around to see what your options are. ::D

Let us know what you decide!
