[QUOTE="RedVenom48, post: 15975454, member: 166576"] OP stated he will be building his motor in the future. Assuming a built motor means rods, pistons and cams the TVS 2300 will not be able to provide the steam the newly built engine will need. There are plenty of guys who are running built long blocks who are seeing boost drops at the top end of a pull with a 2.3L TVS. Im not trying to claim the TVS 2.3L or its VMP variants arent good superchargers. They are some of the best blowers to make our GT500s go faster! For a stock long block that's intent on STAYING stock, Id agree with you, 2.3L TVS variant all day long. Built long block with cams? Needs more steam, and a built combo will need more aggressive fueling and a higher octane fuel source than pump 91 or 93. So the boost pressure a 3.4L or a 4.0L makes isn't much of a concern at that point. I firmly believe the Eaton 2650 rotor pack is a damn MONSTER. I was a huge cheerleader for the VMP TVS Gen 3 2650 before it was released. So far, VMP is the only provider for the 2650 in a GT500 specific package. Spec'ing a larger mono blade solution (VMP only TB's at this point) is shooting them in the foot. Their new TBs aren't reliable, and they have a crude plate adapter system to run the more common standard GT500 pattern TBs. Until they come out with a bullet proof TB or a case that has a normal GT500 TB pattern, its hard to recommend it at the moment. [/QUOTE]
