I don't think it has anything with being a believer. It has all to do with facts, design, and knowing what needs to be done in order to get the kit to make the power you are after.

For starters, install the OEM intake manifold back on the car, and get rid of all the water-air cooling that comes with the Stillen kit. Figure out a way to install an air-air front mount intercooler with a single inlet and dual outlet. Get a shop to fabricate some charge pipes that are 3" diameter, and have a good 2' section of this diameter tube before the TB's. Weld two MAF sensor housings on each 3" charge pipe, again before the TB's.

At that point, you will be ready to put it on the dyno, and see what that Vortech supercharger can make. With those mods, you should be able to hit your power goals.

Bottom line, you can't argue physics, and the proper way of going about this when it comes to making that kind of power. Also, remember that the head unit (supercharger) will rob about 40hp from your engine in order to make the boost you will need (12-13psi) to make that much power (500 at wheels)...AND the auto won't help.

So for you to make 500whp, the HP at the crank will probably have to be about 640. The blower is capable of 1150cfm, and this will be right on the limit of what it can do.

Not trying to be negative, just suggesting what you should do if you wish to do this properly, right out of the gate. That is what I would do if I had this kit, and wanted to push it.
