I am thinking of turboing the 01L and had a couple questions about the MAF. Where are you placing your MAF, before or after the turbo? And are you using stock or aftermarket tube?

 

why would you turbo it? thats like replacing a $100 bill with a $20 bill

 

perhaps for more power?
perhaps becuase you can run upwards of 600rwhp on a stock block much more safely than you can run 500rwhp with a blower on stock block?

 

You obviously know nothing about turbo chargers

 

This is probably a stupid question, but why can you make more power safely on a stock block with a turbo? Just curious.

 

Superchargers take power to make power, a turbo is like free power, the engine doesnt have to work as hard to make the power.

Maybe a vintage $20 bill that's worth $500 now .

 

well, it's not free, but much much more efficient

 

Turbos are nice, but I am really a fan of the flat torque curve of the roots charger....

 

nope just a crumbled up $20 bill that came out of a fat nasty stripper g-string

haha

so why didnt svt just make the Lightning turbo then if they are so much better.....thats not a statement saying there not better than s/c's...im just curious

 

Waranty.

 

Now back on topic. Does anyone know how the ford meter will respond to a blow through setup?

 

Mine is a blow through and makes 800+ rwhp. No problems at all.

oh yeah turbos are badass!

to make 800+ rwhp with no problems is great! have you upgraded any of your internals? rods/pistons/bearings? anything?
