[QUOTE="TVS VERT, post: 15539821, member: 65160"] Your gonna get different opinions from different guys most of who will be cheerleaders for the current setup that they have on their car....Ive had all 3 basic setupson my car but haven't had the chance to test my current setup as weather has it on hold.........I had a 2.9 Whipple and 72mm Tbody setup on my car and it was spun to 18-19 psi car felt strong but felt lazy down low to be fair that blower needed to be spun faster to get in the blowers happy RPM range, ditched the 2.9 for a 3.6KB setup and blower was pullied to 19-20psi car felt a lot stronger in mid range and pulled harder up top for sure but once again a 3.6 at 20Psi is not where it likes to be......any larger blower likes to be spun harder the 2.9, 3.4 Whipple and 3.6 and up KB need to be at a min of 22-23 PSi for you to get the most out of the setup........My current setup consists of a Ported GEN2R TVS with a 170 Elliptical tbody and a 149mm Pmas intake and made the switch from 96 octane to E98..... gonna be running a 10% lower and 2.4 upper I don't know what it will make for Power as a dyno numbers don't mean squat to me.....But similar setups with an auto have been bottom 9's at 148-149 and that's the goal im setting for the car and I will throw what $$ it take to make that happen with a stock unopened longblock But to be fair to the larger blowers I replaced had they had E98 fuel and been spun harder who knows maybe they still would have been on the car. Also a thing to consider is shortblock longevity at any time you start making around 800RWHP its not gonna last forever and driving habits and RPM will decide how long it last and when it lets go so does 20K from your bank account to build a motor to handle 4 digit power reliably .
