    Granted with a single 340 and 60lb Injectors I'm only running 12_13 lbs of boost. I could spin this 122 alot harder with proper fuel. Maybe that and e85 would get me to 600?

    The OP should definitely go with a Whipple, I love being the only Marauder powered by a GT500 TVS

    There’s a crown Vic making 640rwhp with a ported M122. It can be done. With a Whipple or TVS and all the accompanying mods, A lot more

    Bluevic? That's impressive.

    I'm being very safe. I've got some smaller pulleys and another pump. But with these 4.10s it's fairly pointless to make more power when I spin more than a Dj. If I could find someone with 3.55s to swap when rear ends ,i would do the work. Otherwise tearing back into MI e will be soon.
    If I could machine a tvs myself, I would probably upgrade. Just switching from a ported 112 to a ported 122, my iats went down considerably. Power went up, and I'm barely spinning it so it should last.

    I'm thinking about going with the Cobra upgrade VMP 2.3 tvs blower. If I don't go that route it'll probably be a 2.3 Whipple. The GT500 tvs blower would be a good option but with the $600 adapter plate a 100 here hundred there it would be a little over my budget right now. I just want a fun street car with some good power that'll run on pump gas 91 or 93. Musclemerc's car is very awesome and he did an excellent job with his build. I got to give much respect to him on that build. Just want to say thanks to everyone on this form for all the information.

    Thanks for the complement.
    Just an FYI the GT500 SC has a larger footprint than the Cobra. This is why the Cobra SC never got the GenII-R option that's offered on the GT500's
    In short, the GT500 unit is a bigger, more powerful unit. I chose the GenI unit because I didn't want to remove the SC to get to the fuel injectors on cylinders 7/8.

    A new Trinity TVS can be had for $2300.00 youd have to grind the 5.8 off it but that's not a big deal. There are plenty of used units for sale now the 2650 is available.

    If you want at 2.3 TVS you'll have to find a used one because they are being discontinued. You may luck up and find a new one if you try and purchase one today.
