2.9 Whipple if you plan to run in the 20+psi range. Will make more power above 20psi. TVS if you plan to stay under 20psi. TVS and 2.9 are neck and neck below that range with the TVS having the low rpm torque advantage over the Whipple.

I vote TVS, unless he is trying to hit over 200mph.

PS. Hope you are doing well Mr. Capp!

If he plans to build the motor, I personally would throw a 4.0 Whip on da' bitch and be done. But yeah.. the TVS is hard to beat as a good all around street/strip blower. And it is very capable of taking a car into the 9's.

Been doing well... working my *** off on the house. I have gained a new respect for home remodelers.

I do love the turbos. As much as I hate PD blowers though I am hoping to get a PD blower car next summer. So I guess I'm being a bit hypocritical.

Not sure if this was posted here yet or not, and not sure how many read up on SVTP but this is terrible. GT500 wrecks at the track and goes over the guardrail, hits a tree and gets split in half.
