And if I did go Whipple, what stall should I go for?

Also for existing mods, I have CAI, Headers + Full Exhaust, E85 Tune

Hostile_1LE and m6-lt1 have my back haha

Yeah I don’t think Powerdyne makes anything for our cars. Definitely meant positive displacement blower which a Whipple definitely is… I own one and can confirm. lol

As m6-lt1 said, post #6 tells you what I suggest for torque converter. PD blowers bring on torque and power very quickly, you don’t need stall speed like a centrifugal blower so as close to stock stall speed as you can get is perfect. My Circle D is just a few hundred RPM over stock because I make too much power to launch in first gear, so I use a bit of extra stall to get me moving with a 2nd gear launch.
