No, that is'nt "too much" or "insane". My car is violently powered as it is, @ 2520 lbs full of gas. Yet as long as we're not talkin' standing start I believe it could make use of a lot more power at what I think is the most exciting range of 40 mph to 140 mph punching it from the bottom of third through best of fourth.

Think Arizona horizon. Just this guys opinion.

I think "dynoroom" posted a picture of a bonneville destined Shelby FE motor a couple years ago. It was topped with TWM throats boxed in and pumped by a big Vortec unit. Fit of the compressor would be a different story but boxing the throats to recieve a compressor is definitely there.

Have fun.
