I have to disagree. Even as little as 10-15hp is noticeable, particularly if the vehicle is under powered for the application to begin with. (such as a heavily loaded Ranger, or one climbing long mountainous hills). I could certainly "feel" the difference just from my under drive pulley and e-fan, which together were probably worth somewhere in the 10-20hp range. And it was fun.....
An additional 75hp would be like driving a whole different truck. Granted, its not a race truck, nor is it anywhere near what you, and others, are putting out, but it would still be a welcome improvement. If you can't feel less then a 100hp increase, you're butt dyno is broken.
The other thing to consider is that 5-6psi, and the 75hp or so gain, is probably the max you can get, on an otherwise stock truck, without lots of expensive, and possibly complicated, supporting mods. Especially for the later SOHC trucks, its about as plug and play/daily driver friendly as its going to get for the Ranger/Explorer.
Using an M112, for these low levels of boost just wouldn't make sense, unless you are doing everything custom from the ground up, and you already own one. The M90 is cheaper to buy, and the one "kit" out there is made for it. At only 5-6psi, you're not really "taxing" the m90 at all. Any additional airflow from an m112 is undesirable in this case, because that equals more power=more mods, which defeats the purpose of the "just a little extra" philosophy of the 5-6psi m90 setup.
I have an m90 sitting around, I pulled off a running T-Bird that I bought and scrapped, just to get the blower. I had always hoped to put it on my '99 Explorer SOHC, w/ an RP Caster kit. However, the more I think about, and follow Dale's (StreetRod2000) thread, about all the mods he has to do to make it work, I feel like that RP Caster kit is a complete overpriced waste of time. When you have to throw away, modify, or replace such a good portion of the supposed "kit", its not a kit anymore; and certainly isn't worth $1700. The one thing of value, might be the lower manifold, and perhaps a few other adapters/fittings. Otherwise, I would probably just throw half of it in the garbage. Last time I asked, he won't sell just the manifolds. So, then its full custom fabricated, and that's out of my reach for the foreseeable future.
