Which would feel stronger

For right now I'm just gonna run a valvebody in my truck but I want some more power. I'm a little worried that just a valvebody won't be able to hold the 140 quad race so I'm thinkin about addin just 100HP right now.

So out of these 3 which do yal think would feel the strongest.

Edge juice
Quad 100
TS MP-8

Now could someone please fill me in on the MP-8 because I really haven't read much about it, all I know pretty much is that it is pressure only. Also if yal of any other 100 boxes that are good, fill me in.


Also on a side note. I know drivin habits (i.e no towin just normal drivin) make the difference but what would yal say is the most HP yal would put on a truck just a valvebody??

It kinda got me thinkin. MY buddy has an 03 HO with a 100HP quad which should put him around 350 at the wheels, take maybe 10-15HP on a stock trans with 120k, and his ant slippin and we drive the same. I've got 60k on my trans and I'd like to add the valvebody and 140HP quad which would make mine around 350 at the wheels, so will mine hold??

Get the Quad Race, you will not be sorry. Use some sense when driving is all. You can do as much damage w/ 100hp as you can w/ 140hp if you drive w/o thinking. You'll probably do more damage w/ 100hp, because you'll be thinking "it's only 100hp, I can drive the heck out of it".

Well I'm not sure if I'm out of that young Kid stage (only 20).

Ok somethin else to throw out there, what about the smarty??

I mean I know I wouldn't want to run it wide open on the 130HP tunes but what about the 2 90HP tunes? The reason I ask is my buddy just called and he thinks he may be able to get a deal on one but he isn't sure right now if it's a CR or VP smarty. He has an 01 so he is hopin it's a VP tune.
