I think you are taking a gamble on a used 40k motor with a trinity. Could it have been taken care of? Sure. But it also could have been driven hard for 40k miles with an aftermarket blower. Let's say it all works out, great.. you save some money. Let's say you do all that work, and that motor...

Hellion's air to air they include in their kits -- it works quite well. In the hotter months though, methanol will drop the IATs significantly.

I'd pull the rotors and make sure the rest are good before reusing them, but if that is the only "damage" I would reuse those no problem.

Thank you, yes once your making 1100-1200whp it gets very expensive. Lots of things like to break. This car is ready to go, no expenses spared and it would like you said cost 100k to build one.

SOLD

No benefits at all, other then headaches. Doubt you can even get it tuned out anymore.

After having both a Trinity 2.3 and a Gen4 Whipple 2.9, I would stick with the trinity. I did not gain much (if anything) on the Whipple. The 2.3 Trinity is IMO the perfect pump gas blower for these cars. If you want more power (and want to go with better fuel), you can pulley down and add 15%...

I would not run a 2.4/10% lower on pump gas even with boostane. If you want gains, look into E85 but with that comes some pretty hefty expenses. Even at your current power level, I would replace the OE balancer bolt with a Kinetik Crank Saver stud for cheap insurance. If you desire the 10% lower...

Hurst (HUR-5671521) will be your best bet.. not a specific kit for 07-09 but easy to make it work

No longer needed thanks

Brand new O'Rileys alternator was bad out of the box. Installed a new J2Fab High Output alternator with Big 3 Wiring, and new Motorcraft AGM battery. These alternators do not fail unlike the stock replacements, new owner will not have to replace an alt. for a long time. Price is now $28,500 --...

Check battery/alternator, those can cause a slew of issues if voltage is low. I was chasing an "idle" issue, turned out to be my alternator was dropping voltage at idle, as well as randomly throughout the powerband (per datalogs).

Price drop - $29,000
