Which do you prefer as an upgrade?

And I think a little low end is lost but still will kick in way before a turbo, would that be such a bad thing? We would be able to launch with minimal wheel hop and burning out, and still hit the boost by 2nd gear.

Twin rear mount turbos!!! Run them sequentially with a bypass valve going to the intake. One small turbo and one big one. Small turbo for low end, big turbo for that awesome 'beat you by buslengths' feeling. Makes me feel warm all over!!!!
A Whipple would be the best, unfortunately I think the only Whipple currently available is the W140AX which is the one they use for the 5.4L Lightnings and H-D Ed. trucks. Much too large for our app.
Why not the 75AX? You can spin the **** out of it, put a little more boost through it, and it is still bigger than our blower right now. Although it does put out ~10% less CFM than the 100, it is still more than our m62.

The W75AX would be really nice. How would you like to be pushing 35 psi with a 2.3" pulley.
Or more realistically 22 psi with a 3.1" pulley.
I don't think our map sensor would support much more than that 3.1" pulley? Maybe you know more than I but I believe that is about all it can take. And yes I like that idea. I think it is still small enough to turn it over w/o problems but just big enough.
