I was actually thinking of putting a whipple on it. You know, if I can put a six-speed manual transaxle in the car, I have the confidence that I can make a whipple work. I will have to wait until I am rich and famous to do that, but it is fun to think about.

| [QUOTE=offroadfury6;206358]nah, i think the m90 is a good blower[/QUOTE The M90 is a good SC for wat it is; but it doesn't hold a candle to a Whipple. |

| A Whipple is basically a twin screw blower vs. a Roots style blower that doesn't bleed off boost or not make any power up top...the Whipple just keeps making power...and where the M90 on a 3.8" will make about 6-8psi at WOT, the Whipple makes about double that. But...the Whipple is also more than twice the size of the M90... See b*tchin' video here... YouTube - Tom Wright Dyno With Whipple It is for awhile...until you need bigger and better, but it cannot compare in anyway to a Whipple...especially when you open the throttle up

| Brain... any thoughts on developing your manual trans swap into a kit? Id like a performance one, haha. I'm trying to get a LS4 swap together. I'm debating on going the full distance and putting a 6 speed on it. A few Fiero guys have mated a 6 speed to their LS4 swap.
