Wow what a pain in the ass the past two weeks have been waiting on parts yada yada ya. It just seems I always needed something to continue with the install. anyway shes almost ready to get back onto the road. Just awaiting my Tweecer so I can iron out the non existant idle I have, lol. Anyway heres a short list of the recent additions:

-V1 S-Trim
-3.33"/7" Pullies (8 Rib)
-Walbro 255 Inline pump
-36# Injectors
-75mm Pro-M
-Anderson Powerpipe
-Bosch BOV
-Tweecer R/T (CANT WAIT TO GET IT!)

Anyway my first impressions of the blower. Is it worth all this work and hassle? HELL YES! Im seeing right at 7Psi @ 5k or so, probably see around 10 when all is said and done. Breaking the tires loose going 45MPH just because you mashed the gas is an AWESOME feeling. Anyway anything I should check, get, change? You get the idea...

I went with the 36's because I'm really not looking to make more than say 10Psi (for now :rolleyes:) and I've read 42's affect driveability, oh yea I got a killer deal! :rlaugh: I do not have an FMU installed as I need to get the datalogging done so I can see if Im rich or lean. I've done alot of homework and the PMS is great with its handheld GUI and ease of use. The tweecer (IMHO) blows it out of the water with its WIDE array of adjustability. PLUS there is a TON of info and programs available for you to download and use. For instance a guy by the name of dave sent me his tune (94' Strim cobra) so I have some sort of starting point.
 
I'm looking at right around 400RWHP on a SAFE tune. If needed/wanted I could hope for 430-450ish.

-I cant wait to start sending people home with their tail between their legs :)

That's Sinful or Wldtang from corral. They both got a killer car with some good power. Somewhat similar to my setup, however i have no twEECer. I'm getting a chip burned on the dyno as no further mods will be needed for quite sometime. (baby daughter arriving in 2 weeks)
 
When you get the running, tell us how loud that supercharger is. Im saving up, and working my overtime hours for a Vortech as well, without the power pipe, but on that note, i've heard a power pipe can actually give you 2 more PSI.

Congratulations Raven, im sure she'll love your car.
