[QUOTE="justinschmidt1, post: 1036446, member: 8889"] All depends on what kind of boost. A turbo, centri, and roots will all hit differently Also, an evo x has a curb weight of like 3500 lbs, the old evo 9s were lower, 3200~ IIRC, but still an sn95 has a curb weight in the 3300-3400 range so its not really much heavier and the torque will make up for that minimal weight anyway. Basically a roots type blower like a KB will have instant power and torque everywhere. A centri like a procharger or vortech builds boost with RPM so the power will just keep coming but never really "hit" a turbo is the best option when it comes to making the most power and torque per PSI I would say and will hit HARD when it comes on Again, it all comes down to what you want to do. You could build the bottom end, throw turbo cams in it and turbo the 4.6 2v and make 600 rwhp on pump gas I think you will be more than happy when 700 ft lb of tq hits in the mid range lol If you really think you need more than that you could go with a 4v or a 5.4 [/QUOTE]
