Kind of Dumb Question ? (superchargers) and im shure its been ask 10,000 times

all i see is vortech and kb kits on their site, they used to have a novi2000 kit
they still have the paxton kits, they just dont list them. you have to call for prices. I believe Tim also now (or soon will) carry Procharger Mongoose kits.

Oh, the SQ isnt exactly quiet, just more quiet than the S-trim. Its a great blower for a DD car but you still get the "cool factor" from the blower whistle.

I too run the SQ Mongoose kit on my Daily Driver and i've had it on for about 3,000 miles and no issues thus far. Power is there when I want it and the car is a safe DD the rest of the time.

Also, just to note, the SQ is quieter but don't be fooled, the S is annoyingly loud. Especially if it's a DD. Trust me, I hear the SQ as does everyone else. Only had it on for 3,000 miles and I've had at least 5 people comment at stop lights about the blower. It's by no means "stealthy" lol. Let me put it this way, I can leave my car running in the parking lot, go into the grocery store and hear the whistle while paying at the counter. ;)

Also, the SQ is superior to the S in air flow. So you'll potentially yield better results with the SQ over the S. Just something to think about. :)

What kind of gains does that Mongoose kit offer? Anyone dyno'd afterward?
My bullitt put down 370/370, with NOTHING but the Mongoose kit. Yesterday it put down 393/377, (386/370 SAE) after adding a Bassani Catted X-pipe. Still has stock cat-back and headers ;)

Benny! 423 non-ic on stock internals?! How have you not blown your block yet?! :rlaugh: :rlaugh: :nice:

magic :) It's all about the ammount of spark and quality of the gas you run. Plus I only have 22k miles on the motor (12k of which were blown), so that can't hurt either! Hell, Tim of modular powerhouse has 600rwhp out of an SQ trim non-intercooled on his daily driver - built block of course :nice:

Dang, I only have 36k miles on the motor (3k blown)! I'm so scared to break something though. LOL!

Who the F drives a 600rwhp as a DD?! Oh yea...Tim. :rlaugh:
 
my novi put down 375HP and 385TQ before the IC. since then i have added an IC, pullied down, added a mini race BPV (my car sounds like a jet plane now!) and now i'm installing the viper spec t56 and some other goodies while i'm under there. i'm about to push it somewhere close to 440 RWHP in the next few weeks.

i'm still running tims tune even with all the other mods. it is still dead on! you will not regret buying the mongoose kit, whichever one you get!
 
I do not think you should even do a blower... You already have some cool mods especially the headers :drool: with the full exhast system :flag:

Anyways, I would suggest that the cost of a blower buys a whole lot of cool suspension parts, preventitive maintenance (you got 55k man) , and even a stereo with cash left over for lots of ga$

Think about it... :D

BTW at 55k you should pretty much be replacing every single fluid in the car...

Lets be fair now, those were your uncorrected numbers with a 13:1 lean spike. Once you get that fixed it looks like you will be in the 370 range with corrected numbers.
it still put down 370/370 SAE with nothing but the kit.
