yikes....so what is better then turbo or superc in ur opinions u guys?
SC, easy of operation, reliability. Turbo, more potential, more hassles. It depends on what you want, the time you have, money for tuning. But take that loaded question into a new thread, please... we've had enough flame wars on this already...

the price seems in line with what everyone else is offering. not too much more, or less for that matter.i figured it would be at least slightly more expensive though, simply because the technology is new, at least to the U.S.
so do we have any dates set up for the installs guys?

the car runs smooth, almost any situation which required me to mash down on the gas now only takes half the effort. my kit was installed by mark dibella, and he actually had to shorten a bracket for the charging pipe and the pipe itself...all for clearance issues.
suprisingly the car runs at 6+ psi at peak? anyways i'm quite happy with the product but if the numbers don't seem right to oscar sr. & jr. i'm willing to stop by kraftwerks.
now for the dyno's...now let's all remind ourselves that not all dyno's are alike. the numbers posted on the kraftwerks site and on the first page were done on a SuperFlow WinDyn. mark tested my fit on a run-of-the-mill dynojet...
first dyno is straight auto transmission going...
and this second one is using the paddle shifters...
now i'm sure the numbers would increase a great deal with i/h/e or the injector upgrade, but i'm trying to keep this as stock and sleeper as possible. well...that, and the fact that my wife would divorce me if i spent anymore on this car
and no. i won't be making it to the meet this week, but maybe sometime later. i'll also post pics of the engine bay tomorrow...

I'm guessing it's giving you roughly 20hp with over stock if i'm calculating correctly.

hi im a turbo guy with a turbo fit i dont get that ur blower is putting out 6 psi and u gained 23 HP with the turbo, 6 psi we saw upwards of 55 hp and now on 10 psi we are seeing gains of 85 to 90 HP. not to sound sound bias but for the money why would you get supercharger when the two turbo kits available are making better numbers for cheaper? im not trying to start a controversy, im just trying to probe the mind of a SC owner/buyer.
Honestly that is one of the reasons I haven't jumped right on this kit is because I don't know if I can justify spending that much money for only 20-30hp. I am still going to keep an eye on this tho because I am still intrigue and might get the kit depending on how people like them over a longer period of time and also what else comes of this kit.
