NOS or Supercharger for stroker
Here is a question and project I've been toying with. After the warrenty is up on my MTI 422 Superstroker engine I was thinking about a way to get to the 9 second club. I am leary about nitrous and wondered if any strokers have put on a supercharger. Just a thought.....Just a thought. :yesnod:

Nitrous :yesnod:
Your compression is probably too high for FI.
plus it's much cheaper

Plus you will have more money left over in case you melt a piston... :chevy

I'll end up going with nitrous also, as compression may be to high, Nitrous seems to have a better output for HP in my opinion and you can use it when you want to use it, wont have to use it all the time, although sometimes that is nice :D

A 422 with a 150 shot should do the trick. ;) :D

You want to join the 9 second club. What are your current 1/4 mile numbers?
