After the ls6 swap i'm looking to get blown.... but which one, i was thinking vortech but seems low tech and out dated. I have had my eye on a whipple or kenny bell, but would love any input advice or personal experience with any. Thank you in advance
tvs 1900 all i am hearing is good things on PT net
? im cunfused
Do NOT do a whipple. They have no way to intercool them and are useless. Magna charger is awesome.
This is the superchawger you want.

My friend had a vortec and I liked the hell out of it. Why not go turbo?
One of the more overlooked forced induction systems out today is the STS turbo system. Take it from me, these systems work VERY well. The biggest and most common misconception about these systems is turbo lag, because its a rear mounted turbo, but I can tell you that there is virtually NO turbo lag. I could write a few paragraphs about how well these systems work but I am not an STS salesman, just a happy customer. I would, however, recomend that you at least visit their website (ststurbo.com) or call them. Afterall, everything they told me turned out to be true.....especially the part where I would get a TON of power for every pound of boost.
sts turbos are cool. The only thing I dont like about them is the way the intake is. A restrictive as hell sock over a filter too keep out moisture. Needs a better method IMO.
Trick turbo kits are the way to go. I have had supercharger now I don't think I'd go back.
thanks on the whipple i didn't think of that.....so vortech does make the paxtons? ...good point on the turbo setup i've thought about it after seening the videos on you tube they seem to work great but i got to say i'm just not a big fan on the turbos don't get me wrong they kicka$% on these trucks from what i've seen but i just dropped 2 grand on exhaust and i'd rather not hack into it, i guess i just like the supercharger whine, but best belive the 240sx i'm looking to get will have a turbo on it. thank you guys again for all the help and advice cause god knows i need all the help i can get! lol ;p
depends what you want. All out top end power? Then Vortec or Procharger is your choice.
Torque? Radix.
pretty much, that and i do tow quite often so i figured i might stick with a supercharger, hey nice truck by the way i saw the pics that 408 stroker seems to be popular? seems like it makes a hell of a lot of power
Thanks. It's decent for what it is.Quote:
