    eventually (very very far down the road) I will want to replace the m90 with a more efficient blower and I am wondering how much more efficient would something like vortech or procharger be on GTP?

    it would be a lot of work to get it to fit right. You could throw on a gen V

    A centrifugal supercharger would be cool. Keep in mind what will limit you in the end is your own ability to fab things up as most all aftermarket boost setups will need lots of custom work.

    you should find the guy around here that had posted his blower kit off of a ford gt a few months ago. it looked so insanely b.a.

    Polished Gen V, 3.1 mps, intercooled, S1X cam, northstar tb, and Tim King built trans with 3.29s and all the good stuff

    all blowers will go on the car with the right adapter plate. it is making enough other effort in the other areas of the motor to make the blower work efficiently.

    i wouldnt mind trying to get adapters made for me. I work with this guy we all call "mad scientist" who built this anti-gravity test chamber thing with only using his head, pencil and paper so im pretty sure he would have no problem making adapter plates for me haha.
