I was going to wait and put a dart block in and do all the other supporting mods, but I am getting anxious. I was thinkng of slapping either a novi 2k ot t trim on my current setup. I am well aware of my block limitations and plan on only shooting for 450 or so rwhp, until I get a dart. I don't beat on my car so I don't think it will be a problem. I am also thinking of getting the Bilstein DTS shocks,struts and spring. What do you guys think. Thanks

Its all about the tune. Keep it safe and conservative.

The Novi 2000 will be the better choice for the Dart block combo later. The T-trim will do anything you want to now, but the Novi will do it more efficiently.

what else would I have to upgrade besides my injectors. Could I get 450 rw with my mods?

The Novi flows more and will handle more horsepower. I seem to lean more towards Vortech for 5.0 blower applications, though.

My friend who has a 93 cobra with a R317ci stroker has blown up three Novi 2000 head units running 25lbs of boost. He went to a YSi with 25 lbs and does not like it as well but it is better than the head unit blowing up and putting metal in the engine or having to replace the hood twice.

I would do the T-trim or maybe a Procharger. and Maximum Motorsports full length subframes, Bilstein and coilovers. or the MM Road and track box.

If I were you, I'd take a look at Prochargers...

What are the benefits of coilovers? The kit I was looking at was 650 or so and that is the most I want to spend on my suspension. I already have welded in full length subframes. What procharger would be equivalent to a 2k? Just like your friend had problems with his 2k, I am sure there are plenty of people who have had problems with every type of SC. Thanks

did the friend use an intercooler when running the 25psi? the air temp was probably crazy. if he didnt, there's his answer on why it blew up
