Just curious to how many people started their ls1 cars FI life with a turbo kit then went on to a blower setup. Im running the old qmp kit and im thinking towards the end of the season of changing it to something more serious.

Ive also read alot about some really high hp procharged cars with the F1 blower. It looks like a lot easier of an install to do a procharger with possibly less issues.Except for maybe belt slip. Anyway whos done it.

ive had a couple turbo setups and finishing up my first custom.

a good friend of mine has a F1C firehawk that i took for a rip...... it feels great, ballsy for sure. i like the simplicity and how clean and complete the setup is. however, ill stick with the turbo. i just like the feeling and power of it better.

it's all personal preference

I went s/c'ed to a turbo set up.....hindsight being what it is, I should have just replaced the D1 with a F1 LOL.

That'd be me. I had a forged 6.0L 364 GMR twin turbo on the trans am and it was fun but I didn't like the unresponsiveness of the engine or the turbo lag plus I did have quite a few bugs I had to work out with it. I sold it last summer and am having Shawn at VA Speed do me up a forged alum427 w/F1R so I don't have feedback on it but I have done enough research to determine it's worth dropping big coin on and that it'll be all that I had hoped.

Any proper turbo setup should perform just as well or out perform any supercharged car.....to change from Turbocharged to supercharged is just absurd.

turbo's make "free" power....if you didnt like the Lag the turbo...turbo's had, then go smaller....superchargers still need to make boost too...

this is where my problem is... i cant decided between a turbo or s/c for the 408 b/c they both have their good and bad to them

Lag is for the traction, boost is for the action

I am building a 408 right now and have a PT88 in the garage for it. I thought about going the SC route, but at the amount of power I would be making I was thinking that the lag would make it a more fun street car because it would help me hook.
