Ill be getting a 2650 at some point. No need to waste money on that if Im going to get an aftermarket blower.

If that’s the case, why not go straight to that before messing with pullies? Sell the blower to recuperate some of the cost.

You can do whatever you want obviously, I’m just curious what the strategy is.

If you are going to tune it, why not flex fuel and go E50 for the extra bit of cooling/octane and +40 or so HP?

My tuner said i wouldnt have enough fuel system to do anything flex fuel thats meaningful. I'll do the high side pump and injectors and bap as needed for when I get the 2650.

I agree. A larger lower will work with a 2650 as will headers, 103 TB and CAI, but, consistent with planning for the future, you'll want to do low and high side pumps.

Similar to my build. See numbers below. By the way, I have never, ever had the first issue with cooling or heat soak. I do run a cooler thermostat which may help slightly, if at all. But Vengeance really dialed in the tune and heat soak even on hot Georgia days has not been an issue. Sounds like a great build, enjoy!
