Yeah, I know they carry Griffin ICs, I'm assuming they post when they do the GPs? Like my thread below states, looking for the project car now and I'd probably concentrate on getting the suspension and driveline in place first, but it's also tempting to go with HP first

-you know there were turbo kits around that came with intercoolers (back when you were saving money )
On a procharger I wish i had the money to buy a nice turbo kit but this procharger will hold me over till i become a NYS trooper and can afford som serious power.
Do you think it would be a waste Using it for a d1

A front mount? HELL NO!! Besides..when you go turbo, you could reuse it. NYS Trooper huh? Does that mean you'll be asking anybody driving an F-body if they post here when you have themp pulled over??

Yes you are right about that, and if you were a full on drag car, that would be fine. For a street/strip car, you don't have to worry about an aux. water pump, exchanger lines, heat soak, or packing ice into it. Geat looking product, but I'd stick with the A2A on a street/strip car.

Nice. Yeah jesse, go with FMIC A2A for the charger and you'll be cool. It depends on the product, but the A2W2A will more than likely need those things I listed.
