Hey all,
I'm looking at building up my 200 in the fall, and I'm not 100% if I'm going to go naturally aspirated or add a supercharger. I'm not doing a turbo because I already installed headers. So having said that, I've been reading the two following articles:
viewtopic.php?t=19007&highlight=mustangaroo
viewtopic.php?f=22&t=56560
Here's my thoughts: my car won't be a daily driver, but it isn't going to be a raced either, so I want something that will be fairly maintainable and not pushing extreme limits. Definitely no more than 10 lbs of boost, if that much. I will definitely be using a CI aluminum head, and I'll probably order pistons and a cam from them as well. If I do go with a supercharger, what cam profile and pistons should I be looking at? I do want to use pump gas so i'll be shooting for a CR at or under 9.5, tops, but I understand it has to be significantly lower to utilize a supercharger.
Is there an advantage to either an M90 or a Paxton, or does it depend on which is easier to find? Also, more specifically, which are the easiest to mount on a 200 straight six? I see they make them for different cars but obviously, they weren't exactly made for these engines!!
Thanks for all the help, yall!
