UPS just dropped this off :)





time to give my 07 SS/SC some more power. I ran a 13.1 @ 107 on street tires on my
M62 with a 2.7 no meth, Now its time to run some faster times

did you ever dyno your TVS setup or preferably run it in the 1/4 mile?

Still can't decide on TVS or turbo

TVS I can get, also some coils and a new set of tires for a cheaper price than a turbo kit,
Tvs is more reliable too..

Decisions decisions...

i threw around this idea for a long time. But for me this is what i decided. I road race my car and go to the drag strip. Ive always loved the powerband of my blower, and unless i dropped some serious coin on a turbo, it wouldnt spool fast enough for me. The turbo route produces higher hp on a dyno, but i look forward to seeing those guys at the strip

Im stuck in the middle! Once bonus time comes, that's when I'll decide

TVS is also A LOT more reliable than turbo.. Don't want to be blowing **** when it's my DD.

yes and that would have been the turbo i went with after deciding my goals and what i do with the car. But honestly with the deal i got and all my other mods already done, it was a better deal ( and is your car running yet?)

no offense to those people but there are only a FEW on here that i paid any attention to when it came to the TVS. Shoot 90% of the turbo guys cant even get out of the 13's but like i said for the deal i got i couldnt pass it up later down the road who knows

my friend danew said the same thing as well. he has the same setup with the 252et. Im not by any means biased but this is the route i went. ( and being 28 with a morgage and a ton of other bills MAY have influenced my decision lol)
