Exclamation Could it be? Rotrex Supercharger kit for GE8?

I was searching the depths of the interwebs and discovered this:

Rotrex A/S



Looks like someone beat kraftwerks to it. I wonder how its tuned?

Victory! found the page. looks like it's only sold in japan right now.

In japanese:

Google Translate



But damn $5,164.425 is steep that's probably more than the engine itself.

Yeah, I think Guiness posted something about it today. Cool, but not that cool. At least for $5k

Once I getting everything set on my nitrous, I'll be running about the same with the 55hp shot for about $1,500 after all is said and done.

And one more thing, I think JDMChris said those numbers were at the crank, not to the wheels.

No one beat Kraftwerks to it since they've never been in the race. They aren't going to make another S/C for the fit.

Correct! This setup kinda looks similar to the original Jackson Racing kit I had on my car.

I wonder what they use for fuel management.

edit:
What does this mean? :P
"Fuel ignition control, high capacity injectors and supplied P-MAP (Þ ° À Ã already entered) using the optimized mapping
Air Impulse Ⅱ use, achieving a reduction in inspiratory resistance."

Hmm, Air Impulse II is the air filter. I was hoping it was the name of the fuel management.

Either way, Gbaby, he'll still have a better looking, better gas mileage, more space, more reliable, the list goes on, car. You can win the hp battle, but you can't win the war.

It's tuned with the P-MAP. Looking at Power Enterprise's site, I believe you can use the P-MAP to tune NA as well. I might look into it and see what all it can do. Mostly because I doubt Hondata is even going to make a Flashpro for the GE...unfortunately.
