    Mac vs. BBK Longtubes and other exhaust questions

    well ill throw in my experience too... i replaced the stock exhaust with brand new bbk shorties and bbk o/r h pipe about a month after i got the car and i constantly had exhaust leaks due to the HORRIBLE fitment. took them off and got a set of used mac lt's and o/r h pipe from moneypit on here...

    403rwhp on just 9psi?

    haha yeah i have been giving this some thought. i understand the way the two kinds of blowers work to build boost, and how they can how they can run out of breath when one builds a bigger combo, whereas a turbo would not (on your typical hci setup). however, on the same setup- for the sake...

    403rwhp on just 9psi?

    ok grady, i got another semi-conceptual question for you: turbo vs. blower- a blower setup on a stock 5.0 at the typical 8 or 9 psi usually makes around 100rwhp less than a turbo setup at the same boost level (very general numbers, but you get the idea). since boost is just a resistance to...

    $2500 to spend,so many choices

    i went through 2 exhaust set ups, first was bbk shorties and bbk o/r h. fitment was horrible and it was constantly leaking. finally sold both for mac longtubes and o/r h, havent had a single leak since i put them on almost 2 years ago. i would never buy bbk exhaust (or probably any) parts again...

    403rwhp on just 9psi?

    makes sense, thanks guys. i didnt realize those engines had such potential with boost. i now have a new found respect for boosted mods. and thanks for that explanation grady, i had never thought of boost that way before. good stuff, good stuff.

    403rwhp on just 9psi?

    I have a friend with an '03 GT that just put down 403rwhp with just a 9lb vortech sq trim, and the dyno guy said he would be looking at about 425 if he got his fuel pump to stop leaking pressure. His only other mods are longtubes, gears, CAI, suspension, and fuel pump for the blower. How is it...

    stockfivepointohitis

    if i were in your position i would def go with the nitrous and use the left over money for gears. as you can see in my sig mine is mostly stock, and with the 125 dry shot i ran 8.2 at 86 still spinning through the traps, so with some better tires i know it has 7's in it. btw i got the nitrous...

    how much psi is braided steel line rated for?

    i havent pulled the line out yet to inspect it closely, but it is running through the trunk floor and also close to the exhaust at one point. and i know its not the safety valve because it was dumping under the car and i dont have a blowdown tube. i guess well see where the problem lies when i...

    how much psi is braided steel line rated for?

    a little history. a year ago or so i bought a used nitrous kit off corral for $225. turns out the bottle leaked badly. so after dumping 15lbs of nitrous into the atmosphere i bought another used bottle off ebay for $100. not quite sure why i thought someone would sell a working bottle off their...
