    I simply do not have enough information to give you an answer that worth anything to you. You have a great setup there but I cannot tell you how the charger would perform with that combo.

    The kit is geared towards the budget side of the market and consequently for stock engines on which it happily does its 9psi for a great price.

    I can't believe the pressure we are under to produce this kit, how many times have I said this already. The phone rings more and more for Raptor LS1 kits. Not too far away now.

    LS1 kit on hold for up to 2 weeks, we had an EF Falcon V8 rushed to us from NSW to have a kit fitted to it, we will be prototyping, testing and then jigging that up to completion, then back to the LS1.

    Sorry for this delay, just how things happened

    I am soon coming back around to having time to do this kit but on the same hand questioning my sanity for contemplating it, surely I am brain dead for even considering to do it in a saturated market .........

    I will do one system and let it run for a year I think, thats always been my approach in the past, did the same with 5 liter V8 before we went to market with it.

    I think thats what I will do and let everyone buy something else in the meantime

    I suppose everyone knows that the Powerdyne kits are no longer available, the supplier let me know directly the other day while talking about other business so essentially. I am not sure if there is some stocks left of them or whether already sold out (still on list), this will mean that lowest cost kit is now $1000 further up for LS1 owners. There are now no sub $4k blower kits for LS1 in Australia. They were only set for 5psi but boost is still boost

    Well, what can I say, there have been numerous people ringing up to actually purchase the kit that I don't even have, not sure what sort of set up plan that is but a local did the same thing to me today so I guess its not a plan at all!

    Eveready Technologies (NEW HDT) have started hassling me for the same thing as well ...................

    Raptor breathes out, and then in again, looks like we are not getting out of doing this.

    E series Ford V8s are completed, the customer picked his up today, believe it or not we actually got a 97% power increase on the 5 liter EF Falcon! Had done 230 000km!!

    One little secret on that power gain

    These E series Fords can and do Dyno under 100rwkw stock!!

    Made the gains at 7psi only, all we were game to go with the high kms

    We have a VX R8 booked in for Monday this coming week, this will allow us to complete the pipework development and get the correct engine belt for it. As you all know the bracketing was completed months ago.

    Should have images of some type later next week
