That's an awesome setup. Not bad power out of that sized engine, especially @ 5psi!

I really like the design. Too bad the price is way up there.

I saw it at the show. Was pretty cool setup.. but according to the sales girl I talked to, it's only for ford 'stangs right now. It also didn't look too tall.
Vic was there at the show too. fricken legend.

oh, btw... didn't see any intercooler there.

I'm sure if it goes over well, there will be other applications.

I was interested because it didn't look very tall, could possibly fit an f-body if they decided to go that route.

The intercooler is integral to the intake/supercharger assembly. Was that HP number at the wheels or flywheel?

Id assume flywheel to fluff up the numbers.

it is a low profile because it is a new upside down supercharger. only works on ford modulars with the open valley. the throttlebody is about where the water pump is on a ls motor

The TVS is the same supercharger on the ZR1, but I'll bet this is the smaller, 1.9l version. Edelbrocks design seems comparable to the ZR1 as well. 5Psi isn't squat for that blower. Forge that motor and pulley down and it'll easily make 700+rwhp.
