im going to be using a 8.8 with all the bells and whistles done... doesnt make enough power to turn a 9in over or the power to break a 8.8...

you would be very surprised how much power that 8.8 will take. weld it up good and make sure that the bars don't rip outta the car mine 92 was putting down a lil over 500hp to the ground with the vortech i had on it and running consistant 6's in the eigth as well
