The new guy

Hey guys! I've been reading the forums for over a year now, and I'm in a position where I can actually dig into a build. I have an 05 lsj running a 2.9" pulley making 272 whp. (dynojet) I travel with work so I had to park the cobalt because I couldn't justify dailying it making the power it does with the 150,000 miles on it. So, its time to go. I would really like to try a tvs 1900 build. I love the novelty of a supercharged four cylinder, and I would really like to push a 1900 on e85. I'm looking forward to getting to know you guys and bouncing some ideas back and forth.

How about a 1320. Less headaches and makes good power if you don't want to turbo swap.

It's hard to run a supercharger that's as big as the engine. Some have tried and didn't have good results without tons of modification and even then reliability isn't great.
