What direction to go?
Looking to land around 700RWHP with room to grow in the future
Choice 1: TSP Headers Borla ATAK Catback Roto Fab Big Gulp 103mm TB Pulleys Jokerz Chaos Ported Blower or Choice 2: TSP Headers Borla ATAK Catback Roto Fab Big Gulp 103mm TB Pulleys Cam What would i be looking at in price comparison for a cam vs the ported blower package + gain differences from each one, I believe going cam would set me up for the future. What are the Ported LT4 limitations?

It seems to me that a cam would get your high-side better set-up down the road but you're still going to have to upgrade the both high and low-sides eventually.
I'm not sure on your reasoning for the Borla, but the OEM catback is show to have little restriction. Also - that LT4 blower is pretty much done around 750. If you're looking to go for more later, and that's for sure, you might consider putting that port-work-money toward a bigger blower.

Choice 2 if you want to set yourself up for future mods. Choice 3: TSP Headers Borla ATAK Catback Roto Fab Big Gulp 103mm TB Cam Magnuson 2300 or 2650 That would basically set you up for well into 800 HP if you wanted.

TVS2650 was always on my list, but at the moment, I only have about $5-7,000 that I want to put into the car.

$5500 will get you a 2650 and tuned. Work on the rest later

What kind of power is the 2650 making with no supporting mods?
That $5500 isn't installed though, never played with a blower so not sure what the install all entails. Looks like it would also require new valve covers? coil harness extension, which might even come with the blower.

You cannot add the 103TB without opening the blower about so might as well have it ported too since it’s an additional $500 from the snout porting.
I went almost the same route with both cam and ported SC but added methanol. I would save the cash on the car back as it is not needed in regards to power. Car will sound awesome with the headers and cam any ways. You would need to kick up your budget a bit as a cam installed is about $3500. |

670whp with nothing but a blower swap. And yes, eforce 2650 and HP Tuners and tune with selling your stock blower will net out right @ $5500. There was still room left in the fuel but I stopped until I can get the trans tuned as well.

If you wanted a cheaper blower route and didn’t want to buy valve covers there’s always a 2300.
