But...Good job on this! Keep us all updated!!
the point of these threads teasing us is to get us pumped up for it so when it does come out we wanna pounce all over it! what would be the point of this thread if we didnt?

The fact that the blower is black makes it look good. That fact that it is ginormous makes it look even better. Keep it up!

It will spin in the correct direction. We will try to make it even easier to remove the oil filter.

Nice progress. I'm hoping this setup dyno's higher numbers than the turbo kit. I want to see the superchargers hold their ground. SC's FTW!

I don't see the twin screw putting down more power than the turbo. Turbos are better but they can't beat the whine.

I think it all depends on application. One particular vehicle will benefit better from a Supercharger then another, as will another vehicle benefit better from a Turbo. But this is a whole nother topic for another thread.

Congrats guys and I check this thread on a daily basis for sure.

I am excited to see how this turns out!!!

That being said, lol, why is everyone saying 'good job'? The thing is just laying on the intake manifold isn't it? Not really any better than the pics of it sitting on the tabble.

Regardless, keep us all informed!!!

It's bolted down, so that shows they fabbed up the adapter plate and all!

Yeah. There is no adapter plate there either. I look forward to actually seeing it mounted in future pics. That's a pretty small pulley for only 17psi.

thats why the car was at the shop guys, they were taking all the measurments and sorting out the fitment issues and clearances, after that they will bolt it on a cobalt to check all clearances to make sure everything is perfect.
