I am in the middle of installing a upgrade to my tbird. The eaton m112 was just not cutting it any more. I decided to install a tvs 2300 supercharger. I still have quite a bit of work to get it installed all the ways. I have to make some modifications to the blower and manifold and block. The teksid block has a pad sticking out that interferes with the manifold near the water return near the water pump 1 1/2 hours of grinding and fitting solved the problem. I still need to swap torque converters from my single disk 9 1/2 unit to a 9 inch triple disk unit. I found out under wot the tc would slip badly trying to lock after a shift. enjoy
 
UP DATE New hp and tq numbers

I Had the car tuned it made 523 rwhp and 527 rwtq on 15 pounds of manifold pressure and 14.5 degrees of timing. I had to use a 3 inch pulley to get to 15 psi on the stock 3.3 inch pulley it made 12 psi boost on 3 degrees less timing it put down 459 rwhp and 484 rwtq.
 
That's awesome! Nearly 65hp for 3psi means the blower was responding very well at those airflow and boost numbers. I realize you added timing too, but still those are great #'s.
 
the

The m112 at 13 psi made 454 and 484 torque. that is with a 2 3/4 inch pulley. The act were very hot.

the ambient air temp was 60 degrees the act was 105 under boost at 15 pounds on the tvs blower. I think that when the tq and hp are so close the blower is in its sweet spot.
