Custom tunes, supercharger, turbo, the list goes on. What kind of money are you looking at spending?

BTW what kind of Efans do you have?

Well damn. Get a Whipple supercharger and you won't have any worries. Maybe some Long tubes with a nice exhaust and that bitch will scream. Oh and sell me your AF1 when you get it.

If you are wanting big power with those size tires you are going to have to go big ie supercharger or a very built motor, or both...etc....

Damn. So when are you going to order it already?! Buck's my witness.

The whipple comes stock with the intercooler but if you want to run more boost than the regular one makes you will need larger fuel injectors that don't come with the kit, everything else is included. For numbers with the stock whipple you are looking roughly in the 350 range and more if you remove the speed limiter, pushing the numbers up 20ish HP. If you do go this route you will deffinetely need a good exhaust system and may want to get some longtubes aswell.
