power adder advice!!!
im about about to try and sell a 31 a model i have in the garage to further mod my 5.0. well here the question, what should i go with; centrifical supercharger, roots blower, or a twin turbo setup. i am presented with quite a problem here b/c i love the way the whine of a supercharger sounds yet also a loud ass blowoff valve is also a heavenly sound! my car is an automatic though so i don't know how well the blowoff would be, also i would like the power to be available on the bottomend as well as top end also. i also have a stock bottom end too.
whatever advice yall have about this would be greatly appreciated and i will also be on a budget ranging from about $2800 to $4000 depending on what i get for the a model! Please help me decide!!!:pray: |
tell me more about the a model.....
|
I don't think $4000 will be enough for a TT setup. I'd go with a centrifugal from Vortech, ATI, or Paxton. They'll make more than enough power to send the stock rods into the oil pan without costing nearly as much a turbo setup. I'm not a fan of roots blowers on pushrod motors since they make good low end power already.
I don't recommend picking a power adder based on sound. Pick the one that best fits your application and budget. |
From the bottom to the top KB!
|
If you drive the car everyday or take extended trips in your 5.0, buy a single turbo kit.
Centri blower noise gets old after awhile. Trust me |
:hmm: Yes, do tell more about the 31 Ford!
Would you be interested in trading for a turbo setup? I've been looking for something like that. email me pics (of the Ford): matt@specclutch.com |
More about that 31 Ford!!!
I would go for the single turbo set up. I don't think that twin set ups are that more efficient than a very well spec'ed out single set up. |
you 2 need to get in line:D:D
I would also do a single turbo.you can do a heads,cam and intake with a single 70mm turbo on a stock bottom end and make more than you will need |
How many miles does your bottom end have on it does it smoke or use oil,if so i would focus on that first.what about a nitrous kit:jester: or 2 :metal:
|
Let me clarify for you:
