"This S/C is available new for $1650 from PSE Superchargers."
my favorite part....
So basicly i can buy this charger for 1650, go to the local machine shop for 200.00 for the plate stenciled out and tune it myself for 1900.....

Wow I want to know what machine shop you go to that is going to make the blower inlet, the snout, the dual pass plate that works with an aftermarket bypass valve all for $200. I highly doubt that will ever happen!
There is a lot more than just buying the blower and bolting it on. It amazes me that some people still haven't grasped this concept.

If they machined me some lambos for a few hundred bucks im sure something WITHOUT moving parts would be cheaper if not (the same)
I see a 1,000 markup at least, and thats saying i would be charged 600 for the plate.

How about coupling it to the blower?
Or sealing it so to keep the oil in under high load?
I don't want to rain on your parade, but getting that snout to not **** the bed on you isn't going to be an easy task... hence why Rebel had so much trouble with it in the first place.

$1500-$1650 for Lysholm 1200AX supercharger
$350-$400 for a snout
$ ? Custom machined dual pass plate
$ ? Custom machined adapter plate
$ ? Custom machined flanges for blower snout
$ ? Welding of blower intake
$ ? Bypass valve
$ ? Custom machined snout support bracket
$ ? Oil feed and return system
$ ? R&D costs and making some profit to stay ahead of the game
Hell, most of that is just Rebel's cost, nevermind my time testing/tuning, dyno fees, and all the supporting mods. I hope this is a wake up call here because it seriously cost a whole hell of a lot more to go fast and be reliable than to make some f'n door hinges that do nothing but make you look retarded!

Wow, you really have no clue do you. Usually I'm not an ass, but I'm getting to my limits so here it goes. How about you take your damn ricer doors and go somewhere else. If you want to come out and play with the big boys that are into "go" instead of "show", get ready to pony up some hard earned cash.

It's about time that people start to understand the price of high end R&D and low volume sales.
Watch it buddy
