hey guys i plan on going with a used centrifugal....hopefully a procharger if not then maybe a vortech..i dont know much about paxtons....but anyway...with my listed mods...what do you expect my rwhp to be? what et's should the car be able to pull? i know i can only run 8-10 lbs of boost and i've gota programmer so could i just get a tune for the blower set up or do i gotta get a new tuner?

400-420 rwhp. with some suspension mods you could get into the 11s easily

wow i wasnt expecting it to be that much! bad ass..by the way...were you the one selling the procharger? if so did it sell?

400-425 RWHP? Without some head work and some cams I think youll come up short on those numbers. How much boost and what kit? What are you pushing for hp now. I dont see any real hp mods done to your car as of now so I would think with a good tune you would be at say 250-265RWHP. Getting 140RWHP from 6-8psi aint doing it. I would say between 350RWHP-380RWHP JMHO.

i said 8-10 psi not 6-8...so assuming that i'm going with 10...now that i think of it...400-420 doesnt seem too far fetched to me...as a matter of fact...i seem to remember now in an issue of 5.0 Mustants there was a lady who had an '03..yep i'm looking at it now...an 03 with accufab plenum and throttle body...pro 5.0 shifter x pipe and mac cat back....she was pushing 440.

some more 02gt Old numbers before exhaust were 396rwhp 392rwtq but I would assume it's around 10hp more now. I plan on getting the car dynoed within a month so I'll post up the new number's whenever I get them.

i think at 10 psi you could get near what i posted, but a tb and plenum would def help.

[GTSilver]

i agree...are the 4.10 too much? shoudl i switch to 3.73? when i do the charger i plan on upgrading tb and plenum along with my MAF

[Drgnracin72]

lt headers are a must also. i say leave them in untll you get the blower. you may actually like the 4.10s. i dont but you might. and also i did sell my procharger

[GTSilver]

k kool...if you dont mind my asking...how much did you want for it when it sold?

[Drgnracin72]

$2000

[GTSilver]

so i'm guessing thats what i can expect to pay for a used charger give or take a couple hundred bux?

[Drgnracin72]

i pretty much gave mine away for cheap. id expect to pay around 2700-3000. i started mine out at 2500 and then got tired of it sitting around so i just kept lowering it untill someone bought it

[GTSilver]

kool kool..i just hope that when i do get one i can install it myself...i dont think it'd be that hard.

[Drgnracin72]

its not

[95opal]

gt silver with full supporting mods and 10psi you will see 400+ . My asumptions were 8psi and what you had for your mods now.As far as the installs, each system is different like with the KB and Prochargers they dont need an oil feed line as the are self lubricated unlike the vortec which needs to have a line drilled into your pan. You can deffinately have it installed over a weekend, or one seriously long day. Good luck with it and post up some #s when your finished.

[GTSilver]

will do! thanx for all the info
