Yup. Of course you had another 3-400 for a tune and about 500-1000 for more parts. All less than 4-5k usually. Not bad for gaining 150rwhp or so.
I was meaning the supercharger and the tubing. Not the fuel injectors, tunes, etc.

No. If I wanted a LS1 I would have gotten it in the first place. Not that there is anything wrong with them, but this is GM county.. and there are ****-tons of LS1 cars compared to Mustangs around here. Plus 95% of them are stock. I wanted a sleeper-like GT that can take 95% of them around here. The other 5% that are modded to the gills, could still waste me for the most part. I can spend 10k if I have to. I WANT to spend less however. Whatever it takes to get 385rwhp. Which wont be 10k.

Come on Manalishi, no need to project dishonest beliefs onto me. I never did anything to you.

I don't want this to turn into another "Hey lets troll on Kevin about his 2v thread" Because people have been bitching about it for weeks now.
Thanks for everyone that gave me decent advice.
Anyone can lock this now before it gets silly.

It's not going to make any power without turning up the boost...and those garbage rods will twist like a pretzel
when you do.

Indeed.
Again, I don't want to make gobs of power. Just 385rwhp tops. It's been done many times with 5k and less.
If you go above 400 they will. The internals can handle below that. There are forums full of people with 385rwhp boosted 2v that have lasted years without problems.
Again, this isn't going to be a track car. I know I can't add gobs of boost and hp to it without doing the internals.
But then again, I said ALL of this on the first page. :/
A forced induction setup on a stock engine 2V is the biggest waste of money.

i know it's only one example but, my bro in law is a big mustang fan, and before his gt500 he had an 03 GT vert (unfortunately) and he had a novi on it running IIRC 12-14 psi he was pushing 420+ and beating the hell out of it for a few years and never had a problem. but i dont think he ever ran any great times with it, high 11's mostly. but for ke^in who is looking for only 380 or so i think he would be happy, but the fact that its his DD i personally wouldnt unless he has a back up vehicle for when something happens...cuz it will.

Yup, if you wanna go more, you have to go forged. I hear the block holds about 700 or more.
They will hold 385rwhp forever though, but...that's not going to happen for $3K. Maybe on some internet message board, but not in real life.

You quoted
You responded
Earlier in this thread I already called you out on the same quote
Dude, seriously??? This thread is full of BS. You just said 385hp can be had for $1500 damn dollars. Guess you think we are all idiots. Now you are saying no way were you even trying to imply that. What a bunch of bullshit.

but he wants a boosted car with 380 wheel roughly and 3k wont get u a blower. especially if you pay someone to do to install it tune ect ect. thats why i say hci and bolt ons thats if u do the work yourself, pay someone to do it and its gonna be over 3k also lol
I was meaning the supercharger and the tubing. Not the fuel injectors, tunes, etc.

If I'm misunderstanding than yes Kevin..you're way optimistic.
Let's clear some of this up...just tell us what your total budget is. As in saved $$ to cover 'everything' (loosely used).

You didn't call me out. Both statements say the same thing. I don't want to spend more than 3k for the turbo and piping etc. I understand a tune, injectors etc are going to cost more. Capiche? The fact that I had read the 1,500 thread, which states that injectors, tunes, etc is going to be more, why would I think otherwise?
You either don't understand what I am saying, or aren't reading everything. Not once did I say that. Hell even the quote you made said 3k not 1,500k.
You CAN get a supercharger and the pipes and brackets etc all for $1500 when piecing it together. I have a 3k limit I want to spent on just this stuff.

So 3k + 400 for a tune, and another say 400 for injectors, and probably another 1k for exhaust. That right there is 5k alone. And I am sure there is more to be bought.
THIS is why I made said post. To see what was cost efficient.
In fact, I think plenty in here are confused on your comments. I think I have it figured out though...................

You can get anything used for a cheap price. You're not getting new parts for that little money. What supercharger kit can you get for $1,500? I'd like to see that. What supercharger are you referring to...centrifugal, roots, twin screw? Which one specifically...a P1, D1, F1, etc?

ROFLMAO......sir foxbody, you have A LOT to learn about Modular's. I suggest you do less talking, and more learning/listening.
yes...you can get a P1sc used for ~1500. I didn't realize you were talking the charger only for less than $3k. In fact, I think plenty in here are confused on your comments. I think I have it figured out though...................
I believe what he is saying is he has budgeted $3k for the parts/setup and knows that tuning and other 'small things' Like gauges, etc. will run him more than $3k.
If I'm misunderstanding than yes Kevin..you're way optimistic.
