i would stay away from the saleen kits, they are a rip off.. get a kenne bell!

I remember someone posting a turbo kit, although it was just the turbo and all the piping it was around 2500$ and seemed to look pretty good!

KB for a supercharger, but here's a link for my choice on a turbo kit:

http://modularpowerhouse.com/produc...d=124&osCsid=27ba8c20e8e12076b7d0c320c577557e

seems like a decent price since it includes install and tune.

Hellion or MPH turbo mines custom but if it wasnt i would go MPH. As far as blower go KB. Whats your cars primary use anyway

i would expect many internals to require upgrading with that kit, very tempting too. higher numbers than a KB for about the same price (w/tuning)
i see also it goes to tubulars and coilovers.. hmm

Number wise i honestly dont know, if i were to guess threw a 6 speed maybe around 1000 to the wheels. But im getting the C4 so the numbers will be lower but the car will go faster. I dont care for numbers I just want to run 9s

Downpipe: 3" - does not connect to h-pipe or cat back.
You need to make your own hot side I think.

* Not recomended for lowered cars *

These two things bother me the most about this kit.

I agree

this is because you're using your stock K-memeber and that downpipe cant go above the k-member in between the engine like you can with a tubular. They provide a hotside but it obviously wont just bolt on to your exhaust which would be two pipes that are quite far apart. Because it goes under the K-member and it's 3" it hangs lower than most.

CobraRed_96_GT · Feb 10, 2008

certainly helps to have a tubular k-member tho:

I have the HP twin 60mm kit.
MPH doesn't sell the HP kits anymore. They do make custom kits now.
What are your rwhp goals?

I was just recently turned on to these guys http://www.torktech.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWCATS&Category=2 for 2V supercharging applications. The kit either utilizes an 5th GEN Eaton M112 for their base set up, or one of the new TVS 1900 series for the heavy hitter. Pretty much perfect for a 2V set up.

The price is certainly right and they really seem to be a nice kit. One more option for you to ponder

that's pretty sweet, it's about time. Wish you could substitute a used eaton in there and buy the rest of the stuff needed.

This kit is looking good in my future

I hear ya. Considering they're going for anywhere from $200-$500 on EBay, it would certainly cut a pile out of the cost. But even still, it's a lot more reasonably priced than any other kit I've seen.

I like the fact that comes with a real fuel system upgrade (42lb/hr injectors and high flow fuel pump...not a 36lb/hr injectors and a boost-a-pump like Kenne Bell), a large dual bore inlet and throttle body and matching high flow intake and an 8-rib pulley system as standard equipment. That alone is more of a selling feature for me over any of the otherkits on the market.

I had to piece all that stuff together on my own for my set up.

Please ask me how much my supercharger cost

At least it's more erect and not floppy anymore.
