    What kind of power diff between S and T trim?

    I might have chance of swapping my S for a T + cash. What would be a reasonable difference money wise between the two head units, and what kind of power gains would I see? I see the T supports up to 825 on the vortech site, has anyone gone over that? My combo consists of a Dart 331 with cometic gaskets Solid roller custom blower cam, AFR 185's and a Trick flow R intake. I'm also running an AEM management unit to take care of the tuning. Im sure the S would work ok for now, but I plan on spinning this motor just over 7000rpm and it looks like the T is a bit more capable RPM wise. Im mainly kind of curious what kind of power I could make with the T. The engine was originally built for a bigger blower in the future (Was hoping to go YSI or Nov2000).

    Does the T-Trim head unit fit into the S-Trim brackets, or do you need to get a whole new kit?

    Yep, it does fit the same brackets. You can even get your S-Trim upgraded to a T-Trim.

    edit: I just noticed that you have an SQ model. I've heard that Vortech can upgrade those to a T also, but that it's not strong enough to run cogs.
