Hard to decide what's the best form of forced induction on these engines...they're all bad ass. I LOVE my whipple. I'm sure I'd love a procharger, vortech or turbo as well...lol

The mass amount of misinformation in this thread is killing me... LoL

Twin Screw blower's building boost more linear than a Centri? BBR having the highest HP Coyote in the Country? Hellion the best turbo kit EVAR?!?!?

Sorry for your thread getting murdered OP... This shit is just to good....


A few things here... A PD blower doesn't build boost in a linear fashion. It builds boost instantly. A Centri build's boost as your RPM goes up. The more RPM, the more boost. That is linear. About Hellion being the best? Firstly, scavenger pump. One more thing to go wrong, one more thing to add expense to an already expensive kit. Secondly, turbo placement. WTF were they thinking? There is two almost 90* curved pipes coming into and out of that turbo. How is that a good design by any measure?

OP - If you want a fun street car, go Twin Screw. If you want the fastest car possible, go turbo. If you want an in between, go centri. Simple as that in my opinion. Oh... And don't use Hellion... Also my opinion.

Hahaha no it's be WW3 if he kicked my boy Clutch!

But Idk I never had a problem with steve until the on3vswhipple thread and I can only bite my toungue so many times then did a little research and found out EVO says there making 1000+ HP and Steve goes from saying BBR has the HIGHEST HP COYOTE IN THE COUNTRY...On this thread to in PM saying just highest HP at KOTS...Its shit like that I can't stand then he wants to take it to pm and tuck tail in every thread that he spews BS in. Just calling it how I see it... In the end i think it would take more than 950hp to go 8.89@148. Which is what EVO has to back there 1000+ statement.

And besides the point I fuckin hate 5.0s and like talkin shit BAHAHAHA


I have seen EVO personally and spoke to the driver and one of the other guys (not sure of the name. hes a bigger guy)
And both of them told me the car made "900 something" quote word for word. That night at Cecil Drag way they ran 9.03 at 145 (not 100% on the trap speed.) track was slick and their 60fts sucked.

To the op. If you are building the motor you might as well do heads and cams too. while your in there do it all at one time.

Im sure who ever you decide to go with for tuning can write you a break in tune that will be more than safe.
I am a big fan of turbos (i daily a turbo 01' Focus 400whp) but i don't like how crammed they are in the s197. When it comes time to boost my 11' I will more than likely go Whipple. And the sound of a Loud crisp V8 with a nice little blower whine is 'Boss'.

So how does this sound

And im sure my mind will change several times

Stock motor with forged internals, same compression
Ds1c procharger
80lb injectors
Jackle fuel pump or possibly another setup here
Upgraded clutch .. possible twin disk
Suspension with 15x10 dr 28" tire
4.10 or 3.73... (current 3.55)
Exhaust and other supporting mods
Think I could launch hard as fuck in the street with a centi?
I don't think I want a twin screw, my cousins gt500 made 600ish rwhp with a ported blower and pullies
And he could not hook at all with good drag radials on the street from even a low roll

I want to be fast as fuck on the street lol and procharger seems like a nice kit I just don't know about centris
I know I loved my turbo but idk about the kits offered and the prices are way more than a centri

I didn't say a twin screw's boost was linear; I said the power curve is more linear. Because boost is essentially constant, the power curve is very similar in shape to that of a naturally-aspirated motor (and thus more linear). A centri blower only has max boost at high RPM, making the power curve more "peaky" than a naturally aspirated motor.

bro, we have has 0 issues with the hellion system and the one on our 2011 KOTS car just made the highest horsepower on a coyote motor in the country. It was up against KB, Whipples, vortechs and prochargers.

This is all i'm trying to say. Not comparing it are starting issues. Their systems work. With the type of piping (bassani), and bends, thus allowing a great flow.

remember too, this is 2011+ we are talking about
Cool it has the highest HP in the country? So it beat Evolutions car that ran 8's. They was said to have over 1000whp. SO you beat that? Also being you made the HIGHEST HP IN THE COUNTRY do you now run t he fastest time? Cause that would be more impressive. WHat good is a 953whp if you don't run worth a shit and is a dyno queen.

It was said when they went 8's with the Procharger they had over 1000whp. They had said that. As said above saying have most HP and running sorry times to back it up. Well its just that sorry.

For the guys actually giving me advice thank you, I am researching everything and weighing my options here

But the arguments certainly are informative and entertaining I suppose lol
