Default Our Hot Rod Power tour line up

I assumed this could go here considering every thing is FI

Besides our normal stuff our GTO will make it's debut. Numbers are impressive with the Rotrex considering the motor is pushing the limits of the supercharger. A new larger design is in the works to support more power.

Not to mention the 389 inch titanium rod motor that is spinning it

Enjoy

Thanks for the kind words guys.

I'll check out the race thread Caveman.

On Friday I will be taking plenty of pics and will get my first chance to shoot the GTO. I'll be sure to post them here.

The GTO pics on our page are renderings

Well boys, a little something showed up at the shop today prior to final fitment and some clean up.

I present some spy photos taken of the GTO



That is a 305 rear tire


I can see a Methanol kit sitting behind that battery





Notice our custom air box which works with fuctional hood



I will take full pics of the car on Friday when it's clean. The color look really good in the sun.

And I leave you with one more teaser.

Looks pretty tough sitting on the ground

Kurt,LS1 and LS2 application...Is the filter mounting up to the factory hood or is that a custom hood....Could we expect to make 100RW with this kit on a stock engine...Please keep us GTO guys informed of the blower kit and when it'll become a production version.

Again the car is beautiful....

No problem. As far as LS1 and LS2 I don't think it will be a problem. I believe the hood is a factory piece that was modified to work with our induction.

On a stock engine I would say it should make over a 100 even with an automatic. Plus they are going to produce a larger unit geared towards bigger motors. With the efficiency range of the Rotrex pushed up a little due to us working them harder gains are in the 50 to 60 percent range. Rotrex as a company started out in Denmark where the displacement average for auto makers is less than ours so you can see why they have to adapt to our market.

Plus, we are working on something to help in boost curves and power transfer for our supercharged vehicles which is very, very cool.

I think some may get the feeling alot of our numbers with this stuff have been a little generic or assumed with little printed information unil recently. This whole product line is really in it's infant stages with mostly this forum receiving it as we get it.


As for us we will be offering kits with options, units, certain brackets, installation items, and intercoolers. The line will be geared towards those who want to just bolt on a kit and go to those who want to do custom installations.
It will only get better with time.

Furthermore, don't worry about not being informed. It's part of what I do here. I handle our website as well as, sales, taking pictures, developing the Rotrex sales department, and getting information into our horsepower hungry hands.

Thanks for the interest.

Did you 'glass the new rear flares over the old, or replace the whole quarter panel?

You guys really outdid yourself on the GTO modifications...
