Now why would you choose that blower ? Cus it's bigger ? This was just gone over recently... I hope you can rev ur car
High enough to spin that blower. With ur setup you'd be better off with a s trim.

1800 to my door all I need is injectors its pulleid for 15psi so I should see maybe 10 down low. Its not as big as a ysi I dont think it be that much diffrent than s trim.

the t trim is a pretty solid blower, its effecient at 15-20psi. I have an SI (almost a T, just slightly less cfm but more efficient) and I'm WAY overspinning it. I think its smart to go with the T trim. I have buddies that push 600+ with the T, after that you need to start looking into V7's

I think your intercooled T trim will work well. The bracket setup is kind of a bear, but not horrible. did you get the fuel pump and stuff with the kit too? what size injectors?


I have an S trim (T-trims little bro), made 495hp at the tires with it at about 13-14psi, and its a hoot to drive. i think thats about the limit with my S trim, but we will find out in a few weeks... hehe. That was before bigger injectors and more T/B...

Im running Victor Jr heads and some kind of mystery blower cam with .550 lift too, along with a 80mm accufab t/b and a TFS Street heat intake.

No fuel pump but I upgraded a long time ago. No fuel injectors yet either. Not sure what I wanna get yet. I know 42's but I might something bigger.

Id go at least 42's, and depending on what kind of power you are looking for, an external booster pump, depending on what you have in the tank. Aeromotive has those new trick in tank pumps that flow 340lph, enough for about 500hp boosted, I think .

Hm... depending on how much boost you run, you may wanna go bigger than the 255... im running a 255 in tank, and a Vortech T rex external, 60# injectors and stock everything else for fuel, and it seems to be adequate at almost 500rwhp. that was when was running 42# injectors, im running 12-14# of boost too.

For injectors, theres a company on Ebay (http://stores.ebay.com/fiveomotorsport) that cleans, flow balances and reconditions ford fuel injectors, they do a good job too. Thats where I got my 60# injectors, they run like new. 60# injectors should get you to around 650rwhp or so, depending on fuel pressure and a few other variables.

Boost a pump is not a bad option. I think it will work well with the 255 in tank, I cant believe I forgot about those things... lol.

Ya, the in-line like the T rex works well, but its a bit noisy. the only time i really hear it is when I go to start the car. other than that, the dumps and blower whine drown it out... lol.

The Aeromotive 340 is a good choice, should support what you wanna do.

I would go with at least 60's I maxxed the 42's I had in my car out at 552 hp with a s trim pushing 10lbs of boost. As far as fuel pumps I would run the 255 in tank and run an external fuel pump like the t-rex but run it off of a hobbs switch so the external will only kick on when the switch see's 1-2lbs. of boost pressure. You can find a hobbs switch at your local napa store pretty cheap and it keeps you from having to hear the external pump run all the time.
