2 Paxtons on a TPI setup
Hello everyone... Im a newcomer
However, I have never been sucked deeper into the
world of the F-body, then these past few weeks.
I have a very clean 5.7L TPI 350, im runnin hypertech
ECU controls and some nice Lucas Octane booster.
I managed to remove and (beat the **** out of) the
nasty Y-pipe thats been plagueing this <A TITLE="Click for more information about car" STYLE="text-decoration: none; border-bottom: medium solid green;" HREF="http://search.targetwords.com/u.search?x=5977|1||||cars|AA1VDw">car</A> since the start.
The true duals help the car breathe a hell of a whole lot
more. All this and its still not producing what I need ...
... ok ok .. not need, but want really bad.
I turned my head to Paxton Superchargers. I saw how 1
of those units just fits just right in there without changin
visual appearance. However, I wanna set not 1 paxton but
(2) of them .. one on each side. A friend mentioned
fabricating a pipe in a (W) shape. So it takes the super-
charged air from both of the paxtons and sends it into the
Throttlebody in one 2 1/2-3in diameter pipe. I said its risky
and your gunna need to have a custom ECU chip made
for all that forced induction air.
I figure Forced Induction is the best way to go
If you wanna maintain exterior stock appreance.
Or u can jus get a monster Blower and cruise it
around all day
Tell me what you guys think ..
