ok i have $3500 to spend on the car.i`m torn between the fr500 intake or a use procharger (around 6lbs of boost).my compression is ,i think,10.5 to 1 or10.8 to 1.so which way should i go?

oh yeah i have fr500 head and cams and supporting mods.

With that high of compression I would probably look to stay N/A and go with the fr500 intake.

What type of rods and pistion do you have?

 

[kezell]

Sorry...Double post

I would build the bottom end.

then save for some boost and it will be a monster.

its built already

a domed piston? I hope not. B/c if you built your motor like that w/ high compression your "stuck" and no blower. Spray it.

no flattop piston,so can i have blower with flattops

 

[droptopsnake01]

I think you will be fine. W/ a competent tuner yes. Totally flat-top piston or do they have a lil dish?

total flattop,but with my fr500 heads the compression is a little more ,than with stock heads,is that right?

i dont think so.

That's a helluva lotta compression to go FI. I say stay NA and build a NAZ type screamer.

I think you would be fine with a blower, but it will end up costing you more than $3500 to do the full blown setup properly.

 

[silver2001cobra]

if do go blower how much boost can i run and what the best set up?

 

[Quadcammer]

the amount of boost is limited by octane. With 10.8/1 compression, Id say you'd get maybe 16 or so psi out of it before you'd have to start pulling some significant timing. Thats intercooled of course.

Best setup would probably be a D1, T trim or Novi 2000, but they are all fairly pricey, and you're gonna need a lot of fuel mods.

I got a D1 kit for sale, head unit needs an impeller shaft. If you are interested PM me. Its got some nice extras with it too.
