Other things to consider for a supercharger install: Bigger TB, bigger MAF-better exhaust-if you're putting more air in, you need to be able to get that extra spent charge out!
The H/C/I with supercharger is the best of both worlds. If you want to make the most power right now though I agree the supercharger is gonna be your best bet. Good luck.
budget??
Thanks for making my point. A used S-Trim for $1700, $300 for used injectors and mass air meter, $100 for a 255 in tank pump, and any 5.0 can put down 330-370rwhp, stock pullied. Oh, and I still got 25mpg on the interstate. Lets see, cheaper, and faster!
Blower > H/C/I
That is if you like used parts. You can get used h/c/i kits, or piece it together as well.
You will not make 370rwhp with 8lbs of boost.
A well put together h/c/i will beat a Strim car.
I get 24mpg (some city) untuned. H/C/I.
I want to spend the little amount of money on the HCI combo as I can but still get a good amount of horsepower out of it.
I dont want like AFR's or anything. used is fine. but i will buy cam brand new.
TFS Stage 1 cam is very good cam correct?
Hows TFS Street Intake vs GT40 vs Edelbrock Preformers or others?
Hows Edelbrock preformers or rpm's vs gt40(p) heads and others?
