Heads, cams, intake or supercharger????

cedp83 · May 18th, 2010, 12:35 PM

Gents,
What do you think?
I have some cash to either throw an intake, cams (w/new springs and cam gears), Bore heads, TB/PLenum, MAF, install + tune or a supercharger with stock internals

Supercharger hands down

If this is a modular 2v don't waste your time with heads/intake/cam

just go straight to a vortech :-) or a kenne bell if you have lots of money. either way. SC is the way to go

blower

You're not going to find many people around here telling you to stay NA. I'm not one of those people either, so start looking for a procharger or kenne bell

Boost.

If you want to make power go supercharger. The only people that should stay NA on these motors are the guys that specifically want to stay that way.

You can sneak past the 300hp mark with good heads cams and intake and be pretty maxed out OR bolt on a blower and put down around 370whp give or take

SCREWd2V · May 18th, 2010, 01:27 PM

BOOST it

3sportbob · May 18th, 2010, 01:38 PM

I'm gonna boost mine this winter. I recommend the same.

dcook_14 · May 18th, 2010, 02:19 PM

I love all the guys around here that are boosting

Boost, dont even hassle with heads cams n intake.

Shaun03GT · May 18th, 2010, 02:59 PM

Supercharge it. Plenty of people, myself included have pieced supercharger kits togeather for under $2000. And youll see much much much better power gains through boost. Plus once you hit your limits NA, that sucks. A simple pulley/belt swap for us boosted guys makes life so much easier

cedp83 · May 18th, 2010, 03:13 PM

Any sites were I can find a supercharger head unit for under $1k? the only one I was able to find was the roush supercharger, are those any good?
@ Shaun03GT, what do you exactly mean by "Intake Assembly (came with intercooler setup)" on your set up for a cheap supercharger? what's included in that assembly? excuse the ignorance.

Shaun03GT · May 18th, 2010, 03:19 PM

I bought a used intercooler, and he included the intake assembly with it

cedp83 · May 18th, 2010, 03:27 PM

are you taking about the lower intake manifold and TB?

suprajay79 · May 18th, 2010, 03:32 PM

These guys are all wrong. NA is the way to go.

Not really...
