3. it still running stock manifolds/cats.

the car was dyno tuned b4 the blower and made 240whp/250wtq so i think over 100whp/100wtq at only 8psi and a real safe tune is pretty damn good....like i said in my other post i dont care what people say or hear about a shop. unless YOU have been there and dealt with them personally what you've heard doesnt mean anything to me. they were super nice gave us a super deal and the work is TOP notch. i've dealt with plenty of shops and Joe(the owner) is one of the nicest guys i've met. maybe your friend's gt was pushing a lot more boost than 8psi i guaruntee and it was prolly more bolt ons/stick. the difference between stick and auto is whp is HUGE. once we build the motor this blower will handle close to 30psi so dont worry its better than the ****ty little s trim your friend had i like to do things the RIGHT way build the rest of the drivetrain b4 we put the big power out.


edit: i see in your profile your car isnt even running so go ahead and talk all the **** about the shop/car at least we got a nice reliable RUNNING car. key word RUNNING.
keep sucking Joes dick. that guys an asshole. i can go on more and more about that, but im not gonna.
Shawns car was pretty much stock. S-trim, lighting mass air, 42lbs injectors and a cat back. o yeah it was auto too. he drove it for two years running lows 12s at 116. put the blower on a 8k sold it at 50k with the blower still on it on. pretty dam good if you ask me.
My car has a fully built engine thats been in the car for 4 years now. i drove it up and down the east coast went i first built it. It ran a 10.91 on 6psi which was nothing for that thing. so lets see i had a 10sec daily driver that i drove for 3 years, doesnt sound bad to me. the car is down now because i broke a stupid key way on the end of the crank. easy fix, but i wanted to redo a bunch of ****. dont try and tell me about fast cars. ive got two of them right now and if you'd like to try and run either one in the spring, be my guest and put some cash up!
