    pro 5.0 install... 04'

    Try pulling left to right w/ the handle on. That worked w/ mine, and it was a PITA when the car had only 35 miles on it.

    what psi do you guys run on pump gas?

    I'd call and talk to Tim. He'd be able to give you better advice than I'll ever be able to. If you want higher boost, I'd go w/ lower compression and their cam's, but I'm sure he'll be able to work out a plan w/ you for the higher HP. I know one of his biggest concerns is building the...

    what psi do you guys run on pump gas?

    That's a good setup to run. Is MPH building your motor? If so, why are you sticking w/ the stock compression? As far as problems go, it still comes down to the motor, how it's built, and how much power you plan to run through it. Tim has built many 600+ HP cars using the Novi 2K w/ IC...

    what psi do you guys run on pump gas?

    You can go higher, but you run into issues w/ the motor letting go. I'm running 9 lbs right now, once you get the HP up, the internals need to be upgraded to handle the power.

    A two part ? Super Unleaded Gas & A Shift Light

    I ran 87 in my car until the blower went on. Never had any issues. As far as a shift light goes, look into the raptor. It's ~ $85 bucks and you just splice into your computer. That's what I'll be ordering for my car.

    NGK TR6 gap for KB?

    I gapped mine at .035 for the Vortech.

    Need 600+ rwhp!!!!

    IMO, if you're going to aim for 600, I'd look into building the rest of the car as well. You'd need at least 31 splines, upper/lower control arms, torque boxes welded, the trans will go pretty quick, but the clutch will go quicker. I've talked w/ Tim about getting my car up to that level...

    question about supercharger

    Their website is: http://www.modularpowerhouse.com Running 9-10 lbs of boost w/out an IC, you would put down between 370-380 rwhp.

    question about supercharger

    I just went and checked their site. It looks like they're selling the Paxton tuner kit for $3500. They have their full kit listed for $4900. If it is the tuner kit, you'll need quite a few pieces, maf, injectors, fuel pump and tune. IMO, you'd be better going w/ their full kit, if you're...

    blowers running in heat?

    The tuner will tune around the reading from the IAT sensor. My car is dog slow today, and it's about 85 out. Simple fix is an intercooler. A cobra would suffer the same problem as a Vortech, in they don't have an IC. The KB does, which will help lower the intake temps, but you'll still...

    question about supercharger

    What exactly do you get from Steeda for $3,400? As far as your mods go, the throttle body and exhaust will help w/ the S/C, but the diablo and CAI will be replaced w/ a custom tune and duct work from the blower.

    Anyone from Atlanta?

    Suwanee here. That other thread was 5 pages long, damn server crash. :bang:

    Just got back from Modular Depot

    It's true that the gears are cut different, but the V2 tends to make more boost than the V1. That came straight from Tim when we were tuning my car.

    Just got back from Modular Depot

    My guess would be ~ 6 lbs. The S-trims don't make as much boost as the SQ's. I only see 6-7 lbs w/ my setup on the 3.60 pulley.

    fuel pump question, t-rex vortech

    I was under the impression that the T-rex was used in the pre 99 cars w/ the returning fuel system. Starting in 99, they did an in tank replacement of the pump. If it won't work, and I'm sure someone will chime in and let you know for sure, get the focus pump, it's a direct replacement and...

    Shops

    WD40, some swivels, some extensions, and a gym membership. :D I used a 10" extension, a swivel, and a 6" swiveling extension to get mine. That bolt was a pian on my car, which only had 3k miles on it when I did it. Just give the WD40 a chance to set in, and you should be able to get it off.

    How long to tune ?

    It should, if it's a kit they've run before, they probably gave you a tune off another car. I'd have them do a pull to read the A/F and see how the numbers are. They may need to do some tweaking, which will cost you a few bucks, but you'll have to wait and see how accurate the JMS tune was.

    How long to tune ?

    My tuning took ~ 2 hours, but Tim gave the car time to cool before he did the final pull's. I'd expect yours to take about the same, but if the chip is already tuned for your setup, and they only do a few pulls for A/F reads, you'll be out in under an hour.
