Ok, well here is the thing. My auto tranny is in absolutely perfect un slipping condition and the car has been taken care of with an insane amount of pride and know-how (not by me but by my uncle who I bought it from). Here is what I think the only logical thing is to do...I am going to go get this dynoed before I put anything on it. It is currently a bone stock car with absolutely no mods. Then we can have our bet based on the numbers I get. I would also make the bet that my car puts out more hp then scott's did stock, if you knew my uncle you would understand.
As far as hitting 500 with the setup thats going in...hell no I wont hit that. My High estimate of crank power is 450, my low estimate is 400. I wont be heartbrocken if it turns out I only hit 350 crank hp...life happens you know? I talk big about the car because I have faith in it and like all things car related until I put data where my words are it will be nothing more than talk.
As far as my cost to return ratio I know its crap. I expect that, I know that, I see that, and despite that I dont care. I love the SVX and want to mod it and only it. I could have built a 10 second drag car for the money invested but I dont care. Ive spent 6,340 on the supercharger setup (instal not included) 5,000 on the car itself, 1,000 for my rims and tires, 400+ brakes and stuff, and then I have some cosmetic parts lying around that arent going on yet that I have spent about 1000 total on. I recognize this is just the beggining and I am willing to spend the money so no more arguments about cost hehe.
I am not running a stand alone EMS I am running a modified version of the stock ECU which has been responding great.
