    Default Terra Charger seen in Street Commodores Mag.

    Anyone able to advise me of the cost of one of those top mounted blowers I saw on a 5 Litre in the most recent street commodores mag? all they mentioned was that it was about 5 grand. Also, what size is that blower and where can I get it?

    they are on the yella terra site, also on ebay..on ebay they are around $5,995(i think) or the tuners pack for $4995(i think)...you can also get them off the capa site..

    the top mounts are the M90's, they dont pull as much power as some superchargers but they pull a sh1tload of torque!!!!

    I thought Centrifugal ones like capa were better in high rev ranges? I want something thats better in low-mid ranges.

    What Im getting at, is it worth putting an M90 on a 5 litre? whats the 0-100 going to look like with one of those? Just want it to have that awesome push you back into the seat feeling and be faster at drivable speeds (like 0-140) rather than be a dyno/drag queen.

    getting the charger is the easy part. its getting it to fit the 5 litre, then all the piping, belts, etc to fit it that is a bit harder.
