just get a Centri blower with a blow off valve. sorta similar...and very easy on the motor with way less $$$ and fabrication to install

A nice Paxton or Novi will do wonders in the power department...and you'll get that cool "whoosh" when you get off the gas

Yeah I understood what you meant, just an easy opt for me.

But in all honesty unless you got something cheap or did all the fab work yourself you'll have just about the same cost into your V10 to turbo or SC it as it would have been for the extra diesel cost at the time of purchase and still get worse MPG's.

That is unless you did something like the whistle tip or the like.
