THIS IS ONE RACE I WANNA SEE

21 lbs of boost is 21lbs of boost, no matter how you cut it.
The difference is how fast/hard the motor reaches that total boost.
Think of an open door...........
Slaming the door wide open, or swinging the door wide open. See the difference it would make on the surrounding door frame?
I ran 21lbs on a stock long block for many miles. It was dyno tuned and I refrain from those 55mph kickdown. Now with the ported heads and same pulley combo, Iam running 18 lbs boost. But I know how to fix that problem
**EDIT**
Oh yeah, that Lightningrodder Low Budget Beast will be getting its *** handed to him (April 16 @ SSOTN Spring Nationals) by the F150online Lower Budget Beast Slayer if he shows up

Remember it's not peak HP that counts it is the Space UNDER the curve! if the KB produces more power at lower RPM's then it will have more space under the curve.
With that being said. The Most bang for the buck award goes to MP.

But for us with stock blocks that cant yet afford a built bottom or even the KB, the MP is a great option.
My stock fuel system is pegged with the MP making 463/530 street tune and daily driver 2.7 upper,4# lower, twin 100mm idlers, 67" Gates belt and no LT's.
I do need a MP bracket as well as a new belt tentioner since my boost has fell off lately (18 to 15) within about 3k miles or so due to belt slippage/glazing.
Im actually saving up for a 4 valve to see how hard I can really spin this MP with that high reving 4v.

I am thinking of going this route:
Magnum Powers Blower case
Magnum Powers Idler brace
Dual 255 Fuel pumps
60# Injectors
SCT Big Air MAF/Diablo MAFia?
Would this be good for 500HP on my stock block?

The Magnum is good enough to push you into the 10's, at half the price of a KB. If thats your goal.
