sounds awesome- you can't get a good feel for how fast it is in the car though. any track/dyno #'s? it definetly makes some low end torque

If I could afford the blower I definately would not be able to afford tires.

It sounds mean as hell. The guy riding and filmimg must drive a civic. They are the only type of person that would say they can tell that the car is fast after a first gear pull . Awsome sound though

Why can the GTO tuck that under hood easier than their F-body cousins??

I dunno how much modding it takes for that twin-screw blower to fit, but it f-bodies the engine is tucked so far back under the window cowl that you would have to modifiy the cowl to fit that thing under it.

I know there are people working on a twin screw set up for the F-bods. From what I understood it took a little "massaging" of the cowl for it to fit. From the pics I saw it didn't look too bad. Do a search in the forced induction forum, that's where I found them.

Man I would love one of those under my hood Ive searched through the FI threads and they always end without any results. I wonder if someone could just purchase that kit when it becomes available and modify it to fit our cars it would sell tons. That pulley looks great and real easy to change. And the sound it is awesome its stuck in my head.
