Default Monster H/C or blower

I want something that will be dominant on the street and somewhat reliable, who would win a 1/4 street race, assuming both cars have equal bolt on's and traction

1. MTI Stage II Heads milled .030/X1 Cam/LS6 Intake/LT's, 4500 stall
2. GTP Stage II Heads milled .010/TR230 Cam/LS6 Intake/LT's, TNT 100 shot, 3500 stall
3. GWP Stage II Procharger 9 psi, LT's/3500 stall

I am obviously by my sig a blower guy but you cant go wrong with the cartek z package. I saw it make over 450 to the ground on a vette.

mark ramos (c5pig) went 10.88 with the x package and I know black ta (mike) went 10.98 with 10 ps1 d1 package from GWP.

I would go with number 2 myself.You can always remove the bottle and add a blower later <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> .

#2 and up that shot to 150 <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> I dont think a well tuned 9psi blower(on stock motor) will touch that.

I'm also curious as to how the high cylinder pressure of the 230/224 Cam would work with a 150 shot. I know Patrick G sprayed a 100 shot no problem
