Default D1sc or mp112?
I have a 99 frc full exhaust, boost a pump, d1sc full kit and supporting mods twin Innercooled. Should I stick with it or go with a mp112? I have a guy wnting to trade. It has the upgraded carbon jack shaft. What are your thoughts? Car makes 520 on 12 psi on a safe tune. Thanks in advance.

D1SC all the way.. Mp112 are too small for even an LS1 IMO. They tap out around 500hp.

He's trying to get over on you. Keep the D1SC without a doubt.

Thanks guys. I'm really wanting a top mount. Almost snagged a 3.3 whipple the other day but I called about an hour too late. I was unsure about the mp112 seemed small. Thanks again.

Centri pro: gas milage.... intercooler options..... blower runs cooler...makes more all out power.... bypasvslve options.....
Con... Some people dont like the look...

"Topmount" pro: looks cool
Con: heat soak.... inefficient. ... heatsoak... lack of intercooler... pumps hot air as it sits on top of your hot motor.

Well to be fair, the top mount does make instant boost, which is a pro and a con in my opinion. If your car is already pretty quick, adding that much instant torque will make you slower since it just blows the tires off at 2500rpm. But if you had a truck, with tall tires, and awd, then having all that massive torque down low would be useful, but then it would just run out of steam by 4500-5000rpm.
