    My God 138 wheel from a motor that made 170 crank brand new is nothing to down play. 150 at the wheels with 2400 curb weight is nothing to scoff at. What is the stock boost for the pulley you're going to install with the supercharger?

    stock is 6-7psi but i think the mwr S/c pulley is at 10psi if im not mistaken, Also might see about making a manifold to go water to air or just intecooled.

    So want recently i installed a Moroso oil pan,bigger tank and has baffles to keep my block safe on the track. Replaced a leaky OCV valve and had my mid pipe re aligned it was sitting on the body making a bit too much noise and vibrations.
