Is a 95 vert capable of running 12's with the V-2 SQ S-Trim??????? Also what would it put down to the wheels????? Will i need any other mods to the engine, or i can just bolt on the kit then hammer it My motor has 115k and was wondering if it will handle the supercharger and be fine?

itll take it, but not for too long.

youll need fuel upgrades big time.

buy a complete kit and have it professional tuned. you should be fine for a while as long as you don't go crazy with the boost.

The B-cam you have isn't that good for power adders though. you might want to look into a different cam.

i don't think it will run 12s, most likely 13s. if i had to guess about your hp then i would have to say around 300rwhp.

I think it would run 12's with good traction. I am not sure about hp at the wheels. On the Vortech website it says you will pick up 104 hp, and 84 ftlbs. I imagine that is at the crank.
I would upgrade the fuel pump to a 255 lph, larger injectors, and matched mass air meter to the size of the injectors. The other thing would be to get it dyno tuned right after putting it on.
Getting a good tune is probably the most important thing to help the motor last.

That was my goal but went with the KB. KB told me to just bolt on the kit, but I ended up doing most the mods in my sig due to the SC.. Now as of late, my clutch is starting to slip as well... More upgrades

I also heard that you can't run faster than 13 at a track unless you get a roll cage (for converts)

I believe the roll bar cut off is 13.5 for verts. If it doesn't run 12s then you can't drive or you need better tires. I think those kits on fairly stock cars put down around 320 rwhp.

Rollbar cutoff for convertibles at the two tracks by my house is 12.99.

Bump for more info on 'verts w/ S-trims... mine comes in next week.

I make 313 rw on the stock longblock. I've seen less go deep 12s on good tires and would imagine you could do the same.

i posted a similar question about my full weight 94 vert hitting 12's with just a trickflow h/c/i and possibly d/r's... i was basically told that i should sell my car to someone who can drive if i dont touch high 12's with it... plus you'll be making much more tq than me, you have 4.10's instead of just 3.73's and will have a good 25 hp more than me. you'll do it easy. then killercanary made me look bad by throwing out his full weight numbers of 12.3's with a similar setup
