Ok i just got a blower kit. a paxton ball drive sn 89. It will put out between 6 and 7 pounds of boost with the impeller i have for it.
I already have a 125 shot dry, what i am woundering is if the blower with 7psi will be about equal to sprying a dry 125 shot on my totally stock motor? power and speed wise.

Also if i just get a mass air set up with 30# injectors, can i bypass the FMU that comes with the kit? Anybody have any other ideas on how to set up my fuel system?

Thanks

Not sure about the FMU stuff, but anyways, id much rather have a supercharger than a Nitrous setup. The power is always there, and should be close to the 125 shot. Ive always read a blower adds 100 hp give or take, and your 125 shot is probably giving you about 100 HP as well

Anyone else?

I think I'd want to run 30's with the blower. Peak power should be comparable to the 125 shot; however, you'll have MUCH improved part-throttle mid-range as well. You don't get that with the nitrous.

With a well calibrated maf - or better yet - load the transfer function of the maf into the ecu via chip/tweecer/pms - you should be able to do away with the fmu. Some tune time and altering the ecu is often necessary/helpful. Be sure you have enough fuel pump.

Yup - you still need the fuel pressure regulator. But you'll also need to upgrade to a bigger fuel pump - I'd go 190 l/hr or the bigger 255. It'll require dropping the fuel tank....
