Whipple is supposed to come out with a F-body tuner kit. Also I have heard rumor that LM speed is going to possibly release a tvs maggie for the F-body.

That maggie will put you in the range of a pullied GT500 or maybe a KB terminator at best.

The D1SC like trust has can be as mild as 450 or 500 rwhp on a stock bottom end or up to around 800 rwhp on a built motor with no hood clearence issues, heat problems, or changing blowers. And if by some chance 800rwhp gets boring down the road you can always upgrade to a F1 series which will put you around the 1k rwhp mark.
I know people always say they want a certain amount but end up wanting more. But im not looking to beat everybody i know there are always gonna be alot of cars faster than me. keeping up with termis and gt500s will be nice. I pretty much just wanna have fun in it. And itll oly be to the track MAYBE once a year. so 500 to the rear will be fine. Just so long as its enough to keep the douchebags mouths shut

I have owned both, street car Maggie all the way LM SPeed or MTI

Prochargers are nice I have owned a few of those as well. Bob at EPP will hook you up.

All that being said. If your looking for 500-550 Maggie. You want more PC. With a stock block I would not push for more then 550 at the wheels.

i would go with a maggie, i just love the low end torque you get. it is just too bad you can't stick a bigger unit in there. a whiple would be nice

I say maggie simply because of the amazing low end torque. I'm the type of person who likes the track, but not the 1320. I like the road courses and AutoX and a turbo is just not adequate (why I'm selling mine) and the centrifugal is nice predictable power curve, but doesn't have the low end grunt. Thats just me though.
