    I will take more power under the curve any day of the week. There is something about the power delivery of a positive displacement blower that reminds me of a BIG BLOCK.

    I really enjoy my Procharger and I have had just about every type of forced
    induction known to man at one time or another. Our cars are so low geared in first through third that boost in the lower rpms isn't an issue. Tha Procharger is also great for auto crossing, power is easier to contol and is more predicable. My TT GTO had great power down low with full boost by
    2400rpm but was very abrupt and un predicable. I think you would be
    pleasently surprised with the Procharger..........I was.

    Yea, I expect great things. Do you have a 1/4 time on your car yet?

    Unless you decide to go SD you're going to need a MAF!

    I'm telling you, you sent me your MAF with the CAI!

    I guess I'll just go ahead and ship it to you...unless you want me to sell it on ebay.

    I'd say it depends on what you wish to tolerate with the car. I sometimes feel the more "motor" work is done, the less street driveable it becomes. Wild cams and big cubes can sometimes make for a rough car on the street. With that said, it seems a forced induction route would be a good way to go. Good street manners and solid power to build upon.

    I would go for a blower.

    Tigger should go transplant...LSX 454 heart of a true beast. Stroked you can easily go to about 515 cubic inches, 620 hp naturally aspirated loping down the freeway, much more with a little work...

    I'd go with a ProCharger. More power, but not right away / down low, you're already making a ton of power down low.

    A ProCharger would be SWEET!
