Great news if true. Can't imagine a GT350 based 5.2 with TVS 2650 and the new 10A!

Need help deciding on a blower

Well just keep the stock blower then. If you want big power later on get the 2.9/3.4/3.6+ options. Stock blower can push the stock rods to their limit. No reason to wait for the 2.65 when the 2.9 can be had now.
In for anyone who has done Option #1? I'm going to be installing the Upper 2.4 Pulley towards end of the Summer. Was thinking of just sending the Blower,Elbow, Throttle Body to Steigmeir for Porting. The porting work looks really good but wanting to know if anyone on here did this option?
I'm not wanting to race and keep the car on 93 Octane. It just seems the porting work would make the entire combination flow more efficient?
Most of us have used BPS and 1320Junkie for porting stock blowers. I kept the stock upper and did a 15% lower, I like the SFI lower and better belt wrap vs upper only. Either way upgrade the belt and use a BPS aux idler for belt wrap.
My ported TVS made 755rwhp easy.

Sounds like your like me in a way, I do not race but do not dd my car either..But going to car shows like I do was the deciding factor on my s/c upgrade..A select few on this forum dislike the KB 2.8 which I just had, and honestly it was a good blower for what I used it for, and looooked great under the hood that is what helped sell it! The 2.3 tvs is also a good blower and some push this sucker to it's limits for racing purposes..To fit the bigger blowers under stock hood can happen, and I will be next to attempt this in the next week or so..If you have the $$$ do it once and go with a KB 3.6. If you want perfect fitment under stock hood the 3.2LC is my 2nd choice.
.
I did have to modify the hood blanket, even with a lowering kit, but the 3.4 does fit under a stock hood..
.
If the OP is going to run pump gas, as he stated, than a VMP Gen2 would be just as good as a GEN2R and not cost as much. IMO.
Your only going to see a BIG difference between the Gen2 and Gen2R if you are running E85 and higher boost levels.
At 17-18#....Gen2 save the money

I'm leaning towards a Gen 2 or Whipple, I've been seeing some decent deals on both in the classifieds recently.
The GEN 3 will not be "next year". I heard that from a reliable source.

Dam. Nothing until 2019?
What kit did you go with to lower the engine?.

Haha, good to know I heard wrong then. Looking forward to seeing numbers on it.
Hurry with those Gen 3s!!! I want to see a flood of cheap Trinity TVS' hit the market.

JDM has a kit for this.
How are you going to come in here, drop this little bomb, then run away BJ??
Are you giving us hope for THIS year with this comment or are you smashing dreams and making us wait until 2019?
I am sure BJ was being intentionally cryptic. No doubt he was inferring for this year. What big auto trade show is coming up? That is when you will see or hear more on this. VMP keep working smartly on this product.
