Default Improved ATI LS1 supercharger

The LS1 f-body kit has been revised to match the approach utilized in the new C5 system. The FMU and fuel pump have been replaced by a Microtuner for improved fuel delivery while still allowing retention of the stock fuel injectors at 5#. For higher boost levels, larger fuel injectors (standard with the C5 system but sold seperately for the f-body) will be required. This new approach results in both more power and a simplified installation and is fully compatiable with existing systems.

ATI's prices are also going up as of tomorrow. The price of the f-body kit will be increasing by about $100.

ATI is a crock of $h!t I am stuck with #3 boost and the fmu set up. They should give us with the early kits a free upgrade.

this kit was SUPPOSEDLY #5, then after getting it I find out it is actually ONLY #4, then after my free flowing exhaust I BARELY see #3.....

can I safely go up on the pulley to get #5 without injectors or programming?

Sounds more like they have modified the kit to match the Vortech fuel setup.. Jason
