    Novi 1000 question....

    I contacted Paxton about a Novi 1000 for my Mustang, and was told that the 1000 would not be a good choice with my mods (see sig.). Here is what they said.......

    I think that the novi 1000 will not work for your set up. I dont think
    that the novi 1000 will push enough air to creat boost with all of your
    mods.

    What are your opinions.......??

    Thanks!

    I got a ton more mods than you do ! (not bragging ,I'm just stating the facts)

    The NOVI 1000 works awesomely for me. (i'm sure a 2000 would be better)

    I see 14lbs of pressure, and my heads and intake are fully race prepped and
    fully ported/polished.

    i think a novi 1000 will do just fine for you. I have performor intake, 70mm TB, 75mm maf, eql length headers, off road H-pipe, ect. but i do have a stock long block and i just bought a 1000 kit and had it put on and it works great. I dont have a boost gauge yet so I am not sure how much boost i am getting and i have not taken it to the track so I dont know what times i will run but i have done a little stop light racing and have blown the doors off a car that ran dead even w/ me before i charged my stang. So unless you have the money for a 2000 i would get the 1000.

    My opinion......Whoever you talked to needs to lay off the crack pipe :D

    No offense meant but you have a very mild bolt-on combo, the 1000 will work great for your application. With that said, if you have the $$$ to step right up to the Novi 2000 then I would say start there. If you are looking for a solid performing entry level blower then get the 1000.

    That setup will work with the Novi 1000! They were just telling you that becuase they want you to buy the 2000! Also be aware that the new style 1000 doesn't make as much boost as the old one unless you want to void the warrenty by changing the blower pulley!

    you got stock heads and intake and they told you the novi 1000 won't keep up eh?

    WOW...thats pretty steep If it is a budget thing get the 1000 but if you have the money to get the 2000 I highly reccomend it.

    It will work great.

    As mentioned you have to remember that every company is a salesman. They would much rather sell you a 2K over the 1.

    Amen to that!

    A 1000 will be fine. Listen to us for sure. The original NoviPower crew was practically (and should have been considered as) an unpaid detachment r/d (research and development) team due to our experimentation with the 1ks since their introduction to the market.

    Hmmm I wonder why the plastic discharge tube is no more ohh not to mention that the NEW 1ks are a 2 belt system instead of a single belt system... OHHHHH, but good ol paxton STILL does not include a bypass valve with kit... Some people just never learn :) Maybe they didn't read our posts griping about that ;)

    LOL

    Good luck with your decision and know that the 1k will STEP UP TO THE PLATE!

    -Chris

    None taken. :) That's basically what I'm after - a mild street set-up for a true daily driver. I just can't decide between AFR 165's or the Novi 1000....... :D

    You get more power out of the 1000, but you'll have more in it. Do the 165's...at least thats my opinion.

    You could always do the 165's and a nitrous kit :D, cost you close to what the 1000 would, maybe a little more.
