If I had more funds in the beginning and could have afforded an SS I would have gone a different direction. Unfortunately, not everyone are as lucky as some and I play with what I'm dealt with and try to make the best it.
Thank your all for your kind words and opinions.

I guess I have been lucky. I chose a V6 with the intent on FI upgrade. I love everything about my car and the power and MPGs the car gets. I have had my V8s and really enjoy the setup ! For me I am not making the best of it, it is the best of it.
I really hope you get your build completed it really is FI porn in my book. I would have loved to have a roots !

Sigh* wish our cars would break into the 11's that would teach a lot of V8 enthusiasts.

Ummm... They have. HDRS did it with nitrous and Gretchen did it with a twin kit.

It's pretty custom looking...reminds me of a ricer. Just slap on a blower however you can, then run tubing everywhere to make it work. And who care if its tuned, it looks sick, that's all that matters.

I do have a question. And I'm not trying to be pessimistic or anything but what happens if it can't be tuned? What then?

Im guessing he would use RX's personal tuning module I was talking about? Because that was what Tracy was going to use on the new SC kit he just released...but I'm not sure. Thats about the only thing I can think of.

I meant what if that tuning solution doesn't work? What then? Again not being a pessimist but let's think at this logically. Dimsport wasn't an option a year ago (I talked to them and they said no) which is interesting because trifecta has been around almost since the very beginning. That being said, trifecta has had a hard time getting the tuning down on the centri kits which are a lot easier to tune than a roots kit. So what happens if dimsport can't get it down?
