well remember that you can have 500rwtq but that still won't get you the e/t. it takes hp to do that. the good thing about the roots/twinscrew is you do have gobbles of tq down low which produces a lower peak HP rpm (~5,500rpm) and this allows greater success with a stock low stall converter and stock gears. With centrifiguls you need a high stall converter and lower gears because you'll make peak power in the high 6,000's.
Good luck with your project, I know it will take time.
Remember that you can run 12's with only 350rwhp. it's all about the gearing and traction not solely on TQ.

Now this, is the kind of posting that is productive, informative, and debatable in a fun and progressive way. Thanks.

I do perfer cent's with more power and better gearing/stall and/or 5spd's. This is why the roots do so well with the auto's and why cents do so well with 5spds. The 5spds can rev higher on launch and control where they shift.

Again, you're off topic... When we built the Magnacharger pulleys, we built 7 and 9 PSI units.
Your combo was sold with no expressed or implied warranty. It was a PROTOTYPE. If you have a different impression now, then call me out of respect for Steve's guidelines. I posted this much so all will know 9 PSI is the limit on the 4.6, and 7 is the limit on the 5.4. I will say nothing else on this matter.

I was not talking about the Bazooka pulley, I was talking about the black Diablo Computer Chip that I bought from YOU. I did not buy the chip from Dom, I bought it from YOU. ......and the CHIP did not perform correctly with the Bazooka, or the stock oem 5 psi pulley! I spent a crap load of very hard to come by money on that chip and I was not the only person to incurr this loss.
Infact, I was the first person to order a chip from YOU to try to help out your small biz., and what do I get in return, YOU do not provide the service I paid for and yet, you cop an attitude?!? YOU even go further to blame DOM and that we should try to contact DOM???? Dom may have programmed the chip, but I, as well as others, bought our chips from YOU. I was not the only person to receive a crap tuned chip. Several others also have not received a properly tuned chip nor a refund and it has been well over a year!
The only thing I would like to say to you directly is.....WHERE IS MY REFUND?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

Wow! You just can't help but continue to screw up can you? It is amazing how a seller that does not perform for customer after being paid by customer, then cops an attitude with said customer and continues to keep money they did not earn! ........and you still wonder why I prefer not to post directly to you or about you, nor do I prefer for you to post directly to me or about me.
All of us put you on notice in a timely manner.......you just never resolved it...........so over a year later, we are still having to bring it up. Some of these guys got tired of waiting for you to make amends, so they ate the cost and paid again for a tune that they had already paid you for, yet YOU NEVER DELIVERED a correct tune. I know of at least one customer that emailed you about a refund and you never responsed to his request.
The only troll I smell around here, is the one that continues to post in threads that I start, to try to divert attention from the truth. .........lets see, what do I really smell? ......vendor .........troll............vendor troll!

Hey Radar , heres an ideal, why don't you learn to read and comprehend before you post in the big boys forums.
I started this thread to advocate for a sticky thread to post proven data about forced induction systems on Ford F150s. Instead of all the juvenile b.s. being posted, I, as well as others, would like to see everyone focus on a listing of proven F150 specific data and compete against that listing as some kind of benchmark, instead of having to read juvenile postings by people like YOU.
For some odd reason, some of you can not handle or comprehend that and began attacking me. If you attack me or post errors about me, I will show you for what you really are. ...........LIKE I JUST DID TO YOU.

If people will stick to the topic, so will I. Thats why I STARTED this thread. If you or others don't wish to deviate from the topic, comment on the topic, not me. Don't ask me questions, if you can't handle the truth. If you attack me or continue to whine or post in the manner that you do, I will treat your posts as a posting by a juvenile.

......and yet AGAIN, with each and every post, you only continue to show everyone, what you really are, without any help from me.
