That list of things included is really dick all....
Just enough to mount it on and get it running.
5psi wont be anything crazy, if you want more you will have to do a lot more.
Capa are expensive.
Get the injectors from the US, they are cheap as anything, and the exchange rate is now awesome to us :p

As ive been there and done it before several times, there are many things to think about, like whats the best decision to go. Everyone's got different decisions and budgets to follow.

As you do have an Auto, your choices are limited.

As a powerdyne is the lowest form of sidemount blower, at low engine rpm's i think you will be disappointed, for example 3 psi at 3000rpm, is plain boring. And at higher engine rpm total of 5-6psi so you will net very low power figures. Basically the same as a cammed ls1.

However as you do have an A4 you will need a stall to match the camshaft, so dont forget about this when working out a quote.

Power figures and price......these are approx power figures on the mainline dyno, none of these prices are with exhaust mods etc etc.

LS1 with Powerdyne Blower 285rwkw ($7000 fitted, tuned, map sensor & injectors)
LS1 with NOS Shot only 315rwkw+ depending on shot size ($4000 fitted, tuned, injectors and pump)
LS1 with camshaft & NOS 350-400+rwkw once again depending on size.
($9000 cam install, fuel system, injectors, fitted and tuned)

So personally i know what i would be doing.

After finally getting on the dyno yesterday I can give you a few figures to play with. Cam only with a conservative tune 365 rwhp. Cam with 100hp wet shot with a conservative tune (6deg pulled upon nos activation) 478 rwhp. This cam is 226/231 @50 on 110 lsa. Couldnt get the bottle filled on site due to the owner awaiting a fitting but early stages look like it should be a good thing.
I will do some back to back runs on the weekend with nos off & then nos from 3rd gear up & post up the times.

yeh but man some times more power doesnt mean speed. if ur not gonna drag the thing go for somthing smaller maybe around the 220's?? somthing that sorta starts making power a little lower in the rev range so u can use it on the street kinda thing. or else ur gonna be gettin smashed but blokes in rice boxes lol
