You said that:
His Stock Vs Mine Exhaust + CAI + Superchips Tuner + Sticky Tires - Neck and Neck race, He'd win some I'd win some, never by more than half a length either way light to light.
I have all those mods done to my truck right now so wouldent it be a neck and neck race??
O yea by the way guys i found out who drives that SS, he works here at the Hospital with me lol.. I saw this moring when he drove up.
The funny thing is he dont want to race me cuz he thinks my truck would whoop his.
But i think i will race him this labor day weekend Hopefully.
Truckin like i said do you think my truck has a better advantage than the SS does cuz of the elevation level here???

blowers tend to pull more air than a standard supercharger therefore causing it to make more horsepower. How does that sound? about right?
They are the same concept, using the same means to build higher horsepower though if that is what you wanted to hear.

Also it wouldn't really matter with the elevation since you are both running at the same elevation so that is not a deciding factor. Its not like you are comparing times with yours @ 7000ft and his at 1200ft and at different temps. You both have the same handicaps when it comes down to elevation, weather and temperature so it will all be relative to your area.

a blower and a supercharger are the same thing. the words are interchangeable. the two images you have up are of two different types of sueprcharger. the first one (im guessing) is a twin screw. the second one is a centrifugal/vane type, basically the turbine half of a turbocharger but with a belt drive instead of a compressor wheel drive. wiki has good stuff on it http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superch...f_supercharger

As for the whole SS vs Ram hemi vs Lightning thing, I look at it this way. An SS is a specialty speed truck, a Lightning is a specialty speed truck. The SS is only marginally faster than a Dodge V-8 upgrade pickup. The Lightning is of course much faster because it's smaller, lighter and supercharged. It's like comparing apples and oranges, but says alot for that little 5.7 we're all running. Now compare our specialty speed truck, the SRT-10 against an SS and a Lightning and see what happens. It's pretty much the only reason I would buy a reg cab SRT-10, just to hunt other wimpier trucks and destroy them.
