4-6? Where did you hear that crazy number from? With all that your experimenting with blower and being that your the first person to really get into it the little amount that your spending on putting a blower in.. with the problems you might have you could possibly spent enough to get a full 3sgte swap. Your better bet is to do a 3s swap. Once you put that blower on do the bolt ons... I meen even if you built the motor..... your still stuck at only that blower... as if you have a 3sgte you can tune the motor with so many different turbo setups. It just opens the door to so much potential.

It just opens the door to so much potential. I looked into doing the swap awhile back. Strict smog and goverment run smog checks stopped that ideal. Theres no way around it. I personally have two choices, turbo the 5 or put the vortech on. Bottom line is, I have to keep a 97 or higher year motor in my frame. I wouldn't say I'm stuck with a blower. It can be upgraded in different stages with different pulleys to increase boost. I'm going with the 5psi pulley and alltrac is going all out with the upgraded kit. I actually expect it to be easier to tune then a turbo setup. |
