Powerdyne supercharger

[Totalness]

Do any of you have a powerdyne supercharger on a 1998 GT? And if you do you have any sound clips?
Also my supplyer has a few more full powerdyne kits for 2K. Email me at [email protected] if your interested. But if you have any info like time slips on a stock 98 nonpi i would apreceate it. Tring to decide if I want to get it or not.

i remember alot of guys having issues with those old powerdyne blowers for npi's. i guess thats why they are only going for 2k. And the power gain if i remember was only like 50hp. Is the intake tube still really funky? I haven't seen one in a few years, maybe they fixed that. It was in the worst place and twisted like a pretzel.

Yeah I think the intake tube is like that accordion type stuff. And only getting 50Hp out if it is not really worth the trouble of buying it and installing it.
Thanks for the input

I might be getting a powerdyne for my '00. I looked at an install sheet for an 01 and it didn't have the "pretzel" intake duct that you're talking about. Looks like a paxton novi 1000's. If u have one for a 2000 then pm me. They look like a good kit for the price being 8psi with a self contained oiling system for under 3 grand.

i think they changed the kits for 99-04. its the 96-98 kits that is really junk. The fit in the engine bay is bad. Its not designed specifically for modulars. They use the same blower as a 5.0, not a reverse rotation unit to better fit so the ducting has to reach around the blower rather then straight in. Plus mainy issues with bearing failure.
