[QUOTE="Blown2004Stang, post: 9284480, member: 97068"] Ok.. So, I've owned several blower cars.. from centri, to twin screw.. The one that I REALLY enjoyed the most, was my 2000 GT. I buit it back in 2005. It was very simple.. with a stock 2 valve (windsor), Viper spec T56, Novi 2000 head unit, and hand fabbed A/A cooler/piping. It ran high 11's on drag radials, and was a blast to drive. The Novi 2000 is a BEAST. I also built a 650whp KB Lightning.. It made great power, but, honestly, I could never get it to the ground. The TQ curve was insane, and impossible to hook up on the street. Last weekend, I had the chance to drive a 600+whp twin turbo GT (2 valve), with a T56. I was amazed at how strong the car pulled up top.. It felt a lot like my Novi powered Mustang. So, I'm undecided.. I have a 04 GT, with a built 2 valve short block. I picked up a set of stock 4 valve C heads, 99 Cobra intake manifold, timing cover, gears, yada, yada. The problem, is that if I use this short block, the compression ratio will be around 8.2:1. I want to make around 700whp.. Can the stock C heads/cams, with some good valve springs, and a 8.2:1 C/R motor, work decently with a single turbo setup? Would a Novi 2000 still perform decently on that C/R with stock heads/cams? It's a toss up between those two, but, I just wanted to hear opinions from those who have done this before. Travis [/QUOTE]
