I bought one of these and have been searching for a thread on a completed system. Haven't found one. Has anyone on here done one?

edit: it took a lot of time and effort to find these parts so...
new brake lines for the abs. Small line only available at napa. Actually it's 2 adapters and 3/16 line. A longer 6mm line can only be found at Autozone.

And you'll need a 1" longer serpentine belt for the accessory drive and this blower belt.

I have never even heard of them until a quick Google search. Seems like a nice Supercharger, just not a very big company. See if you can find some brackets for it and run it.

This isn't my car but what it will look like plus the BOV. I was liery of them because they have no rep yet but there head unit has a LIFETIME warrenty so I 'll give them a chance. Everything in the pic plus BOV with meth and IAT bungs was $2850.
I really like the BOV because instead of the crappy diaphrams that burst this one is a brass piston and O-ring.

Spoke with Rick Lewis over there, kit is 3900.00 out the door and includes injectors and a KB boost a pump for 2010+ camaros.
There isn't a fbody kit but it's down to 2800.00 with just the head unit, brackets/tensioner, lower pulley spacers and mounting hardware
It mounts on the drivers side and maintains stock powersteering location, requires ws6 hood and you need to delete or ***EDIT*** move your ABS.
Dyno graph attached from a 2010 camaro, not sure what was done to the car though.

Not REMOVE , MOVED forward, rotated, and maybe down a few inches. U people think I'm lieing or something? Wtf
This is the new location of the ABS. No it's not belt driven. No there aren't hamsters in there turning the impeller. No I didn't pay $2800 for just this and that. I got everything in the picture for $2850. Nice BOV, 3" mounting pipe with bungs, air filter, silicone hoses, clamps, fast IAT sensor.

its' a local company here in Grand Rapids,Mi. there are a few cars and trucks running around town here that have them and the customers seem happy. I have one that is going on a truck 5.3l that is going into a 84' Malibu.

I got the bracket on today. A lot more trouble than I expected with the power steering. The bolts are tight behind the pulley and for some damn reason there r no access holes. Pump gets moved up and left 1". Necessitates a 1" longer belt. I had to heat and bend the ps line at least 16 times. They should offer a hose. I gotta move that darn abs. A new bracket would have been awesome. I dont know what I will have to do about the radiator hose and ps cooler. Surely this isn't the first 4th gen torq storm thread.
