Considering my driving style and the type of racing (1/8 1/4) I'm leaning towards the Whipple/Roush/VMP . Not a DD and I know some think I should have bought a Shelby, but I didn't want one; wanted the Boss 302.
I know there's some really fast GT's here. Any Boss owners who have done this also. I believe the Roadrunner 5.0 has a lot of potential that can be unleashed with the right blower.
Thanks

Justin's personal Boss just made 837rw with his VMP blower. Now that is BOSS!

VMP's numbers are rather optimistic and not at all the norm for those mods.
They make good parts but their numbers are always taken "under ideal conditions".

This was done to show the full potential of the kit on a Boss. Shell URT and more timing than you'd run in a DD. Average for a VMP TVS supercharged Coyote is 600-650 rwhp on a" driver " tune.

And this is exactly why I suggest contacting BJ for street based mod motor modifications. Straight, concise info with no BS!
Jshoot has a boss with a D1 procharger on it. Ran 10.5's I believe. He's doing some other stuff to it and should be good for low 10's.

Hit up Eric Wood on the FB page, he has a 13 LS Boss with a TVS and a small shot of NOS. I'm sure he would be glad to show you his car and take you for a ride, that car is no joke lol

I have a BAP coming in, but with the kit you get a set of 47lb injectors. If someone wanted more power and a better platform for more power down the road the D1 with like ID1000 injectors would leave options for a tuner.
My platform right now would be limited probably to the 600-625HP range to stay safe.
