how many pounds were you running? Was it intercooled, if so what intercooler did you use. Which side is it mounted on pass or driver? What size injectors were you running and what size in tank pump?

thanks,

Drew

What does your current motor combo consist of? Only Prochargers mount on the drivers side of the car. The rest bolt on the passenger sides

I made just over 400 at the wheels with my supercharger.. D-1 sc with 3 core intercooler.. completely stock long block.. I had 75mm pro m bullet maf, 70mm bbk tb, TFS track heat intake, 42lb injectors, 255 in tank and a dyno tune by LaRocca's.. Its all in the tune pretty much, cuz you will make the most power safely with one..

My car will mainly be for street driving, probably a little track use though, whats a good transmission that would hold up to the power i want to make? haha i wont be launching at every light either.

I used my stock T-5.. Has 90k on it right now and I still beat on it.. As long as you don't miss shifts and burn your clutch I see no problem.. I used my blower for on erace season on my T-5 with no problems at all.. If not and you want something good you can either go with G-force or Tremec.. G-force you send out your t-5 or a junkyard t-5 they take it apart and rebuild it with very strong gears and everything else.. www.gforcetransmissions.com you should take a look at that.. A lot of people would agree with me on this I know that, there has been many posts about which 5 speed trannys are good

If you want to launch at 5k on some hoosiers or soemthing similar, invest in a new tranny. If your going to be on street tires, you should be able to get away with no problems, except excessive tire spin
