[QUOTE="GT Premi, post: 15953802, member: 121775"] '07 - '09 had a 1.9L. '10 - '12 had a 2.1L. '13 - '14 had a 2.3L. That's what I would've suggested. Also, bigger blowers don't come into their stride efficiency-wise until higher in the RPM band. The bigger the blower, the more RPM it needs to really do its work. When I installed my Whipple 2.9, my car actually felt slower on the bottom end than it did with the stock blower. If I remember, looking at the superimposed dyno graphs, the 2.9 was producing a little less HP at the very start of the run, then barely outpacing the stock blower until about 2K RPM. That was with the hyper-conservative Ford Racing 91 octane tune. My butt dyno tells me it's [i]quite[/i] different with the VMP 93 octane tune. [/QUOTE]
