Looking to get a blower. Have a few questions.

bigred90gt · 01-09-2003, 09:09 PM

I am considering buying a blower for the stang. If I go through with it, what new parts will I need? I know I will need bigger injectors, a new fuel pump to supply the injectors, a bigger MAF, new intake heads and cam. What about pistons? Do I have to lower the compression ratio or is this just something people do to get the most out of their systems? I am not trying to set any records with it, I just want to know that when I stomp on it, it is going to go. All suggestions are appreciated.

Get the Vortech HO 8# S-trim. It'll come with every single nut/bolt and wire-tie that you need for the install. If you use the FMU, no custom chips will be needed...

Contact www.alternativeauto.com . Thats where I got mine. Maybe not THE cheapest place on Earth, but that is who YOU need to have help you under customer service (which is EXCELLENT).

p.s. Look in my homepage MODS and ENGINE sections for my parts lists...

Another vote for vortech, except I like the SQ....so nobody knows.

No badges, no stickers, no wings....just power.
