Just curious to see who has been running a blower without doing them and if any have broke them?

The OPG and CG are like $300 for both and labor is 600-800 iirc. Give Post a call he's done quite a few of these installs...Hell, I'd do it tomorrow for $1k.
What does Rob let you rev to with the stock gears? My limiter is at 8000 Im wondering if I can rev out higher to eliminate my need to change the rear end gears. Emailed Rob on Monday still waiting to hear back...mine are stock, I wouldn't argue you away from doing it tuners usually let you rev it out quite a bit higher if you have them, Im at like 22-23k miles on mine now blower from day one
No chance Id risk ruining an expensive Voodoo engine! If you're gonna spend 8k on a blower setup, the price of the billet gears is CHEAP insurance to protect that engine.Thanks for the feedback guys. I'd like to do them for piece of mind, but seems like a pain in the dick if you just want to slap on a blower and go.
My car honestly is a conservative tune, my shift points are set to 7500, he would let me go higher I’m sure but it would be all on me, rob is cool in the way that he listens to what you want and normal will just do it for you rather than tell you it’s allowed like some tuners will doThe OPG and CG are like $300 for both and labor is 600-800 iirc.

Post has been working on Mustangs & Ford's professionally forever. 25-30 years, or more. He has great labor rates and does good work. I have no issue telling people to go to him for labor.
Those gears are worth replacing for $1K. Especially in a GT350. With what you have wrapped up in the car & blower, what is another $1K to piece of mind?
Some people have been lucky. Others had a couple of Coyote motors taken out because they refused to change them. Engine harmonics & RPM are a big reason they fail. Things the VooDoo has issues with due to that cross plane crank. Roll the dice and maybe replace an expensive VooDoo or spend the $1k and greatly reduce the potential for a known issue.
I'm convinced.
Yeah, that's only about 30 minutes from my work. I'll have to think about doing that in 2020. I might be able to go down a pulley size or so. Though I'd have to see what the limit of the stock fuel system is. I'm not crazy about spending another $2k on this car plus whatever a new pulley/tune adjustment costs.
I'm off Randall/Silver Glen in the Trails of Silver Glen....southern most point of South Elgin practically.
