I have an s-trim right now and im looking at putting it on a new motor that winds a few more rpms.

What are some of the limits on them. Also if i switch to a cog system do i need to have the blower rebuilt first with like new HD bearings?

I would probably also need a different power pipe with a mondo bypass valve?

How much can you get away with without an intercooler?

In the real world I have seen an S trim make 15lb of boost but I hear that you can spin 'em harder than that.

yeah i was looking at that.. i also was reading up on how you can have it sent in and upgraded to like a t-trim..

I think what im going to have to do is actually get on the phone and call them and see what they recommend.
