The X series blower’s definitely want rpm though. When I sent my d1 in for a seal replacement they advised against the X upgrade unless spinning to more like 8k and it’d be lazy. They recommended trying to fix current belt slip (pos single bolt) or go F1.

Glad I read this before going with a d1x cause ain't no way my 2v is revving to 8k lol. If anything in the future I think I'll go with an f1a but I need to figure out what dinner plate pulley I'll be using.

for what it's worth we talked about the F1/F1A and again they said to stick with the F1 on my combo. I'd definitely talk to them before making a decision

I'd probably go with the F1A after reading that chart. I ran mine at about 60K rpm IIRC and I was getting ready to pulley it for more.

If I remember from some searching, guys loved the F1A and thought it was great for the 4.6 and big boy Procharged power.


For that WAP, Tyre was willing to change his pronouns to was/were.

I loved mine. I still miss it once in a while. I don't think my friends miss driving next to me though.

I hate driving next to walls haha almost embarrassing cause people think there's something wrong with my car
There was always someone asking what was wrong with my water pump. I had someone at the gas station mention I must have a vacuum leak. I used to enjoy building a little boost then letting off next to someone on the freeway that was acting like a dumbass. I made a couple people swerve doing that.

The best one ever though was at a car show. I was parked next to my buddies 03 and two old guys kept going back and forth between our cars. I overheard one of them say to the other "I wonder why he needs an alternator that big?". No, I'm not making that up. I died laughing.

Sorry for the hijack OP.

100% go with a Ti trim

Passed on a V3 Si, I am gonna grab the V1 Ti. Gonna see what the P1SC-1H makes after breaking in the engine. Then I will go with the V1 Ti. Probably best to have a bit more looking at blower RPM.

A black V1 Ti is ordered.

Now, do I initially install the P1 and get numbers? Or sell it and straight to the Ti?

I wonder how much boost it will make. Lol

Going to start with a 3.33 pulley as I have a 10% OD crank.
