Hope to get the rest of my fittings this week to get fuel back in and FPR in bay. Holding off on my 102mm and 5in intake until I hear back from Jokerz for my port work. Haven't gotten a response from them in 3 weeks since I requested invoice to send blower in.
Still debating console options... Or just slap a 15lb bottle right there to look pretty

Question for the crowd...
Been going back and forth with porting entire blower, or just opening TB and milling snout. Jokerz finally sent me invoice after I settle on snout, so I'm back to debating.
That being said, this snout is SEALED to the case. I tried everything to get it off. At this point, I'm debating doing the blower just to avoid trying to get the snout off again.
Thoughts? I have 2.55" pulley that will be going on after either : - 0

will that pulley push the blower passed its efficiency?
reason im asking is my cousin has upper and lower pulleys on his GT500 mustang and after a pull or two on the highway the car is heat soaked really bad,,,

How hard you gonna push it? 2.55 pulley with 10% overdrive shifting at 6800 rmp puts the blower in the 22k range, shifting at 6200 puts you in the 20k range which is said to be max rpm’s before efficiency falls off.

With the 1219 springs and cam I have, i have it shifting at 6200 and dont really plan to wind it out anymore than that. Cam wasnt made to make power in the upper 6k range.
Also dont go out doing hot laps, just pulls here and there with occasional trip to track and gapplebees.

I have heard a mix of info on this and I know every set-up is different. Some say they make power spinning the blower to 22k and some say once you get past 20k the power falls off fast. I think a big part is how efficiently you are getting air in and getting air out. I think if you have pre-blower restrictions like small intake tube and small throttle body the blower is already working harder to get the air in.
