    N/A Supra wants some...

    You should be able to take him by doing a few simple things. When you race him, lower your tire pressure (20PSI maybe?), try not to spin ur tires too bad, (i would even say practice launching), reduce weight as much as u can (take out ur spare tire and the insolation (who needs it anyways?), u...

    v-1 s trim vortech?

    i really want a vortech s-trim but all i see are v-2 sq's, i want my supercharger to whine like crazy without having to get a T-trim supercharger. Do they still sell V-1's? I would like to run as much as 15psi, is the v-1 s-trim capable? i'm pretty sure the v-2 sq is capable, right?

    Supercharging a 5.0? Pros and cons.

    the previous post is right, as long as you have your car dyno tuned after the supercharger u will be fine, i've seen a car run 14PSI of boost on a stock engine w/ of course the right fuel equipment, the guy makes 500lbs of torque, haha

    Is there such a thing as a "Factory Freak"?

    ummmm its a known "fact" at least where i am from that some mechanics when putting together the engines on mustang's do extra things to them. Case in point: My mechanic bought an 04 Mystichrome Cobra, we all know is rated at 390hp....less to the wheels, his car dyno'd at 400RWHP stock, and he...
