 Subject: Hughes Stage 2 or M1 for SCed 5.2?
IP: Logged
Message:
Which one would I want for a SCed 5.2L? This same intake will be going onto either a 360 or 408 after this motor dies. I would think that I would still want to stick with the beer keg beause it will still give me the torque I need at lower RPMs b4 the SCer starts to make boost. It should not offer that much if ANY restriction should it, compared to the M1, after all, that air will be forced in anyway right? Keep in mind this will be on a 4300lb truck.

Ok I take a shot at this...
I dont have a SC yet but this is my understanding from what ive read on these posts.
If you leave the beer barrel on you will keep your low end torque, because the SC'r doesnt work until 2.5k or so. But you will loose on the top end, because of the two 90 degree turns the air has to flow.
However I think that if I have 6 pounds of boost at 5k rpm the flow should not be reduced that much... I would like to know the answer to this.
