Any Help would be great.  |
Also try to think about what type of Supercharger you want as the power delivery is different between them.
Jackson and i believe Vortech are both Centrifugal type Superchargers. Generally these types of superchargers are a lot more tame down low. Past 5k RPM however they go like a rocket.
Edelbrock (the one i have) is a twin screw type supercharger. Theres a bit more parasitic load however the power is built a lot more linear and you get a lot of torque down low and through the mid range.
Your goal of 270 whp is a very very reasonable one and should be achievable with any of the superchargers you listed with the right bolt on mods and a good tune. I havnt Dyno'd mine yet but i should be hitting around that number. Someone in my area dyno'd 250 with the Edelbrock on stock everything and a very conservative CARB tune (we are in California) and with crappy CA 91 Octane. My other friend running the Jackson SC with stock everything and 91 Octane and made 230 whp with the Delicious Flash n Go tune.
