I have a Boss and was wanting to go forced induction and wanted to get some opinions. What would the best route be for me? I have really been considering going with a 2.9W or maybe even bigger. What do you all think?
Boss + Boost
- Thread starter Jenkins
- Start date
its not a DD its a roll racer street car and strip car
Twins.
This!!!
I've got a 2.3 whipple on an 11 5.0 and love it. The power curve is sick!
Yeah im not a big fan of turbos so i was really trying to decide between centri or a whipple
just wondering but why arent you a fan of twins?
if no twins then a big whipple would be my next choice

how much power are you wanting?
a black vortech kit looks simply amazing on these cars, and you get to keep your boss intake
can make up to about 700rwhp with them
if you want more than that, you could go with a paxton kit, 1000 rwhp potential for less cost than any other setup
for the $$, my vortech / paxton packages will give you all the power you need

i was wanting to get right at the 700rwhp range
Vortech Black V2 T-Trim
why wouldn't you sell the boss and get a shelby...? the bosses are meant to be road race cars and better set-up for the turns, but i figure a shelby with bolt-ons and tune, maybe a slight blower upgrade, could easily get you where you want to be. leave the bosses unmolested please so we can buy them down the road!
haha either way, this plan sounds like fun

I liked the history of the boss. I have thought about that but I don't wanna sell my car cause its my car ya know?
sounds legit to me. i'd go with centri
Centri for sure. I am at 655rwhp with barely any timing, and more tuning to go. Should be a tad over 700rwhp in street trim in a few weeks. These motors respond to boost like crazy. I am running a D1 setup, but an equivalent Vortech/Paxton compressor will be in the same ballpark also.
Centri.. No contest..
A whipple doesn't match the powerband of the car and turbo's are ALOT of work and a PITA to tune..
I'd go with a Beefcake Paxton in a heartbeat..
