Hey guys! I decided to go with a Vortech supercharger on my 03 GT! It should be here probably sometime next week. Gonna self-install it. I've done it before, I can probably have the kit on in 2 hours. Gonna run a return oil line to the top of the oil cap. I'm not really a fan of drilling and tapping the oil pan. Plus I'd rather the oil return line go nowhere near the belt if at all possible.
So I'm going to run like 8psi for now. Maybe I'll bump it up next year. I'm going super conservative because this car has seen too many blown engines in it's time. Like 4 or 5. I don't care if it has max potential, I just want it faster than it is as a DD but reliable and safe. Also, the GT has full bolt-ons but no headers. Gonna stick with the stock manifolds.
So I'd like some recommendations. What size injectors would you all recommend? I'm thinking I'll go with the standard 42s that most of us get. That way I'll have room to play in the future. The MAF is a SCT brand and is calibrated for 40s. Stick with 40s or go to 42s? What numbers do you think I'll be putting out? I'm thinking that at 8psi I'll have around 350 to the wheels...BTW, no aftercooler for now, lol!! Gonna self-tune with Sniper and write myself a very safe tune. Maybe I'll go more aggressive in the future after it's been on the road for a while. Any advice or recommendations?!
