Needless to say, we wouldn't push it much more than 500whp for reliability and practicality reasons. But, if you do it right, with all the necessary fuel system extras, other supporting mods, and a good tune, you'll be able to hit that power on stock internals. |

First off ~500 is not going to be cheap by the standard that many of us would consider reasonable. I'm sure you can get more than one map for your car in the process of going F.I. so you can probably get a map detuned to 400whp which should help in the longevity and reliability issues. If you run ~500whp all the time your asking for it, so just get a few safe tunes and crank it up when you need it. Unless your a crazy street racer hunting vettes and porsches all day you aren't going to always need that much power all the time. As a wise man once said "just because you're hung like a horse doesn't mean you always need to whip it out"

So I like what your saying here... Don't quote me on this or beat me to death for having the wrong numbers cause I can't recall where I saw it and right now can't find it but doesn't forged do a built motor somewhere in the 3-4K range? If someone can release a supercharger around 6 or 7 you wouldn't be too far off. Still seems like when it comes to this stuff you always spend more than what your thinking so realistically what I am saying is probably like 13-15 to have a "reliable" setup lol.

well you could swing the main components... the block is like 3-4k from forged and the supercharger kit probably 6-7k .... But then you need the tune, the guages, the wideband.. then you would have to do all the installation youself. Its probably possible to do for 11k justy depends on shipping for the forged block and shipping for the SC kit.... and the tune..... Guages and a wide band really wouldnt be that much....

looking at the OP post isint SC a better options as I guess if someone is not willing for 500whp+ but looking for not spending a lot on supporting mods?
Im very much inclined for SC kit and will be happy with 450-480whp provided it can be driven as DD and reliable as well |
