Seems like I've been thrown in the wrong direction by these companies. I just read through another thread to we're even a procharger tech said there's no need for crank support until you're hitting crazy numbers, why they told me this must be purely for sales :/...
correct. If you’re happy at 600-700. Or even 750. There’s no need to spend 1000-1500 on a support. Car will work just fine if you’re a responsible driver. If you’re looking to beat on it a lot and making surpass the 800 mark then go for it. Don’t be mad later that you spent 1500 on a crank support only to find that you’ve lost a ring land.

So where I stand right now with the basic kit, 52lb injectors, P1x, what would your suggjection be to get to say the mid 600-700 mark? I already have a vmp bap that I haven't installed. Car is pretty stock other than a cat back and suspension ect.

first things first, if you want more power you need more fuel. ID1000, or 1050x along with an 18 manifold Or gt350 with locked IMRC. With some revisions that would be 640-650whp as long as there isn’t any belt slip.

That doesn't seem so bad. If I get a stock 18 mani, is the lockout a simple task?

yes. I’m sure you can find write ups here in the bolt on section with pictures.

You can get lockouts for $20 on eBay someone 3D prints them. You will probably not need a crank support ever but it is good insurance for higher Hp Coyotes. I have a 20% overdrive balancer and no support. No problems so far.
If you install a better intake you are going to make less boost but more power so when you have the supporting mods you can turn it up. If you are tuned for all your mods and are just adding boost you don’t even need a new tune. Just have a log viewed to be safe but should not need any change

If you can long tubes are your friend
So it basically sounds like get more air in and out more efficiently before downsizing a pulley. You think if I were to add in the 18 mani, maybe the long tunes, I'd be still okay with bap? I'm also guessing I'll need larger injectors if I add the mani? Thanks for you help man.

I don’t think that you will need bigger injectors for the 18 manifold and headers in pump gas. The bap and 52’s should be fine. after the intake and exhaust if you want to turn up the boost then you will need more injector for sure

I know gen 2 vs gen 3, but I have a 19. Vortech jt-v3, lockouts, 1050s and bap, jlt intake . Did the opg/cs and have a cat back. PBD tuned for 93 made 707/556 wheel. This was at a hair over 10psi @7200. I’m also in MA so the tuning is possible.

Would there be any benefit to a larger injector if I only went with the manifold and bap? I love the idea of headers, but they're pricey and then there's the install. I know someone selling some DW 1000cc injectors with the bap for a very reasonable price. I'm wondering if I did that, plus the 3.5 pulley I already have, if that would get me in the mid 600s.

Awesome, that's right around where I'd like to get to eventually. Sorry for my ignorance, what is opg/cs?
