Default Anyone run a Spec 3+ ?

Gonna install a blower in the near future and was wondering about the drivability of this one. Figured I'd have it on hand for when I fry the stock one running ET Streets and 4.10s. I'll change gears when the clutch goes.

Will be shootin' for around 550 with stock internals but will eventually go forged and up closer to the 700 range.
