And nevermind Eades signature and avatar, each with a picture of a turbo, that's just to show you how much he DISLIKES them...

Everyone knows that turbo mustangs don't run. You will also split your block with 500 fwhp.

superchargers are fun...

don't forget about prochargers. if price is a concern though i wouldn't even look into superchargers. they need a lot of money to get working. a tune for starters, boost guage, a/f meter or even better wideband sensor. the list goes on....

I love my Procharger and I have just now got the car running and haven't had a chance to get it tuned yet. I am still taken it REALLY easy because of my lack of a tune but I did stab the throttle last night and the boost gauge hit 5 psi instantly at 3,000 rpms and I let of, I was not even on the throttle for about a half second. It sounds awesome at idle and like a jet going down the road. I am however going to have to adjust my blow off valve because it flutters all the time and is really annoying. I can't wait to get this beast tuned and really get on it.

BTW, I got my D1SC used off the corral with 1500 miles on it for $2600. It was close enough that I just met up with the guy half way and inspected it before I bought it.

I don't have anything bad to say about my Vortech. It has performed very well. The kit fit very good, and it makes lots of power.

Now that I have said that, I am going to be ditching it for a Turbo. I just need to save up some cashola for the Dart Block and Turbo Kit.

Yup, The times in my Sig were from the one time I got to the track last year. That was my first time launching on the track with the Manual trans. I definately left some room for improvement.
I am getting about 10 PSI out of the Vortech on my setup. When I slapped the Methanol injection on there it made 497 rwhp at 5400 rpm. I only ended up going to 5400 because I screwed up the twEECer on the dyno and ended up with the stock rev limiter back on, so the guy stopped early.
Since then I have the rev limiter back to 6000, and I added a little timing into the tune. I would like to go back to the dyno after I put my electric water pump on this spring to see where I stand. I would imagine it should be above 500rwhp now. Good stuff...

Hi
I like my Vortech...
347 H/C/I setup, stock block. It makes good power above 3500rpm. I would probably go KB for more low end torque if I had to do it again.
