well.... the SSM article says that the 4.0L will not take ANY N20 or Boost... We've certainly shown that is not the case... I've NUMEROUS runs at 100HP... and about 6 at 125... problem was I sprayed too early... like 2000RPM.. trying to get my 12...

You can do the same with Turbo or SC by getting greedy at the track as well. I'm looking into a new power adder because of all the bottles I go through, but read up on all the power adders. Most of the blown motors you read about are due to getting greedy, running aggressive tunes or just plain being stupid. Nitrous isn't for everyone, either is FI which is why I'm sure pretty soon we will see built V6 start to pop up.

And, about the SSM article, there is some good information in it, but Scrming is right, you got to admit that a lot if it is hype to sell. Fact of the matter is we have a strong block, stronger than the GT, our pistons is the weakest link of the chain for our engines.....a few other things, but mainly the pistons.

I was thinking of going right to an 8.8 inch rear end as my plans ultimately call for a 100 shot.
Not to get personal, anyone have rearend problems running stickys on the 7.5's?

Slicks or DR's. DR's are fine on it if you got a good lsd. And are not launching at 5K rpm and spraying before WOT like powerhouse did.

Scrming,
You're dropping so much cash... I would say might as well replace the 4.0 with a 4.6. Well, I guess you'd have to swap the tranny though, so it might not really be worth it.

Better yet, put your stock wheels back on and take the nitrous off, then pull it into your dealer for service... would be pretty funny
