Re: New SuperCharger kits soon to maket...
I like it...just cant afford it...especially since he is located in Chicago. Maybe a turn key system sent via Fed Ex with really good instructions that a Novice can follow and have no troubles? Didn't think so.

Re: New SuperCharger kits soon to maket...
i'm surprised they can now. With the stock CR and open deck I wonder what kind of boost we can run before something goes boom

Re: New SuperCharger kits soon to maket...
These projects take a long time to finish. The Raptor project has been talked about for going on two years now. Not a knock on these people, it just takes a long to time to get to a finish product, let alone a marketable product. Will Randy's be a one off? Until someone puts a price and delivery time on these the response will continue to be somewhat cool
Easy answer to the CR problem. Buy one of the higher milers that people seem to want to give away and rebuild with larger cubes and lowered compression.

Re: New SuperCharger kits soon to maket...
I agree Kevin. Just saying that if you want a TT or a supercharged LT5 that is your best option.
Gotta pay to play.

Re: New SuperCharger kits soon to maket...
The only problem with turbos is the lag. I love the great throttle response these cars have... any lag, no matter how small drives me crazy.
I do not have any experience with supercharged engines. Is there the same lag problem?

Looks great even though I can't follow the pipe flow from the pic. I bet once the dyno numbers are in the price will be set. I definitly like this soluton over upping the cubes. Next best would be TT and last is juice.

Re: New SuperCharger kits soon to maket...
looks like the air intake is where the battery goes. Two questions.
1. Where did the batter go? 2. Wouldn't that be hot air coming off the manifold? 3. The TT Lingenfelter had two turbos, each the size of this SC. Will it be enough for >600HP? The TT was 800HP as I remember.
