LMAO. I know we are trying to stay on topic, but have to give you props for that one. I like Turbos too, but I had to chuckle at that one. More than a grain of truth in it.

My Procharged car is pretty meek and mild compared to some of those already pictured, but I'll throw a couple pics in.



Just installed an 85mm MAF last weekend with new (bigger) couplers, so this pic is now out of date.



Installing the 8 rib pullies.

I know what you mean the turbos systems just require more modifications and can be plauiged with small issues that just push some to the brink of selling there project car etc... The S/C setup is just simple and easy to put together with little modifications so it does tend to be easier to keep one running because of that fact. I know when I have to do work on one or both of my cars its like this Turbo car PITA to work on and well the Procharged car is easier so I alway tend to work on the procharged car hence why it runs most of the time lol! Hows things going in Austin? I see they are talking about another trip to Austin, are you hearing any talks about that?

Hey Jeff. The scene up here is alive and (pretty) well. Have had some good meets lately, but still a few guys working hard to finish cars that are not together yet - that will always be the case.

I haven't heard about the Houston crew coming back up, but the funny thing is we have been talking internally about going down there. You guys would be welcome to come visit again, at least as far as I'm concerned.

Well you guys are welcome to come down here as I beleive that we are better suited to host larger meets as we do it quite a bit here. I don't mind going back up there either, I saw the topic being discussed on Rowboat etc...

Figured I'd bump the thread and let everybody know what the game plan is. Recently put a CMGS Meth kit on her and some 317 heads with a ZO6 cam. I also decided to bump up the boost from 9ish to 13ish with a 7.25 crank and 3.70 blower. I hope she holds but I know I'm playing with the devil and only time will tell lol. I'll hopefully get her all together tomorrow and have Ryne at cunningham tune her once again. I'm looking for over 600ish hopefully. Well wish me luck! LMAO also any input is welcome (also found out the previous heads were stock 853's and all numbers were from them)

Ok guys... I will admit, I know nothing about superchargers I'm a NA guy.. I am looking to buy a D1sc though once I get some money cleared up.
What is the difference between the kit "TWS" and "SRZ".. I like the thing that sits up where the lid usually is.

Thanks!

TWS is the standard twin intercooler set up. SRZ is a LT1 setup or how most FMIC setups would look

Here's a couple pics, you can kind of see the blower in the 1st one, FMIC in the 2nd & the car itself in the 3rd. No idea how much power as it's been track tuned, goes 9.7s at 139.

Is it possible to get the twin intercooler look (the black thing on top) but go with a front mount?

Front mounts help quite a bit more but you have to lose fogs on a a TA, no?
