You are going to get a million replies, mostly based on preference.. If thats the case slap the blower on, let it eat.. Why exactly do you like the blower over a turbo?? If your going on sound as a persuader, a centri blower is basically silent other then idle.

I understood about a 1/4 of that lol.. Turbo's if sized right will have almost off idle boost.. A roots style will have power instantly also.. A centri style will only have a small amount of boost untill you start climbing the Rpms. Boost with these are linear with rpms, making the most at the shift point.. Thats why a bigger stall converter is needed, so it can already be higher in the range from the get, keep it there through out the shifts..

Timing belt? Also if you are looking for input on what is the best option. Go to the fastest truck list and start looking at the trucks and their set ups. Not sure why you want to leave the turbos in the Cars. LOL
Good luck and happy modding

Dude, lol I was so thinking the same thing... Mangled truck is bada$$ for sure and one of my favorite trucks on pt.net, but OP look up foose04, or MGMC and others over 600 on damn near stock 4.8s and 5.3s on small turbos.
