to boost or not to boost? (not to boost yet that is)

[fatal01SVT]

I know its been covered before but i have a bit of an odd question... is it possible to stay just under the 400hp/tq numbers with a blower on these cars, i want to do this because i want boost but dont want to yank my engine for forged internals yet. Also in your opinion should i just buy a centri kit or should i start scrounging for Eaton swap goodies?

Or should i just wait until i get forged rods and pistons in?

Ideally you should wait until you upgrade the rods and pistons. But that's no fun. If you really want to keep the power that low you'll need some low boost. Low enough it would make a centri lazy and probably no fun. An eaton might be a better option for that.
