    roots/centrifugal style blowers on a 4.6 SOHC vs. heads/cam/intak mani.

    Nope, M112. Same as lightning and Cobra. Saleen and Allen are M90.

    roots/centrifugal style blowers on a 4.6 SOHC vs. heads/cam/intak mani.

    I'm not going to argue anymore, but here's my dyno sheet . . .

    roots/centrifugal style blowers on a 4.6 SOHC vs. heads/cam/intak mani.

    Are you familiar with the difference between a Mustang Dyno and Dynojet? Mustang Dynos read ~10% lower than dynojets due to the way they load the car. FYI, My neighbors 00GT with exhaust, pullies and an NX 75 shot ran 282rwhp on the same dyno in similar conditions. I can e-mail you...

    Supercharged NON PI track times/Dyno #'s?

    I want to see some supercharged NON PI (preferably bone stock heads, intake, cams) track times and dyno numbers. List your combo's please . . .

    roots/centrifugal style blowers on a 4.6 SOHC vs. heads/cam/intak mani.

    Don't fear the torque. That low end torque is what will let me clean the floor with you in a race. I've done it on the track. Not only did I beat a Vortech'd 94-95, but I ran him down from behind and passed him before the finish line. 280rwhp on a MUSTANG DYNO with a super rich tune (10.2...

    roots/centrifugal style blowers on a 4.6 SOHC vs. heads/cam/intak mani.

    That is true. But you won't get 350 rwhp from ANY blower with those stock heads/cams/intake. My point is the torque curve more than makes up for it. The car was FAST and a blast to drive with that combo. I'd take 300 roots blown hp over 300 centrifugal blown hp any day. So many people...

    roots/centrifugal style blowers on a 4.6 SOHC vs. heads/cam/intak mani.

    He said in his first post he doesn't want gobs of power and he has a 2K budget. I think the KB is a bit more than he is looking for. Hence my suggestion of a used roots off E-bay or the classifieds.

    roots/centrifugal style blowers on a 4.6 SOHC vs. heads/cam/intak mani.

    I am familiar with the concept of twin screw superchargers. I'm not talking about them at all. However, Don't be so quick to dismiss roots blowers, especially considering the price you can get them for. For a stock headed 96-98, I would recommend a positive displacement blower, whether roots...

    I don't have any way to host them. But send an e-mail to: [email protected] and I'll send them to you tonight, including my a:f graph.

    roots/centrifugal style blowers on a 4.6 SOHC vs. heads/cam/intak mani.

    Yeah, but untouched PI heads will give you a 10.x:1 CR, which is not good for boosted applications. I'd recommend to pick up a roots blower kit. Send it to www.magnumpowers.com to be ported, and slap it on with a good exhaust and 9lb pulley. You'll have a corvette killer that drives just as...

    roots/centrifugal style blowers on a 4.6 SOHC vs. heads/cam/intak mani.

    340-350 from 6psi on stock non-pi heads? I doubt it. Maybe more like 300rwhp. The intercooled kit may get you to 350 with a good tune.

    roots/centrifugal style blowers on a 4.6 SOHC vs. heads/cam/intak mani.

    btw, you should be able to find a used roots blower (they are bulletproof) for less than 2K. I just sold mine for $1650.

    roots/centrifugal style blowers on a 4.6 SOHC vs. heads/cam/intak mani.

    I do agree that a PI motor with Vortech is the BEST option, but it can be pricey. I spent ~7K on my combo, not including fuel, MAF, and chip. Also, I wouldn't recommend a junkyard motor with a blower unless you KNOW the history. I tried that with my SVO. It lasted about 2 months. After that...

    roots/centrifugal style blowers on a 4.6 SOHC vs. heads/cam/intak mani.

    Don't listen to this guy. Roots blower compliment the power characteristics of the non PI motors better than centrifugals. This year I've had BOTH of the following combos (Note all dyno numbers are MUSTANG dyno, not dynojet): OLD: 98 2V (non PI) with SVO roots blower stock headers Off...

    Poll: FR500 or '03 Cobra seats?

    FR500's were first used in the FR500 concept car back in 2000. Its basically a package that replaces the bottom and back foam with more agressive bolsters to keep you in place better. They also give you a new two tone seat cover that you can get in any color combinatio you want. I wish they...
