Preparation for the STILLEN supercharger

Alright I missed the line that said "Integrated charge cooling" so the intercooler is included in the vortech kit but the prices are straight from the page. the price of the head unit can be found on the site as well. the vendors probablyy do get a price break on that but the point that it does cost significantly more than the magnusson blower from the last stillen kit is valid. an accesport costs over 600$(which we don't even know if this is what they are using), the supercharger is over the 2000 mark, a cold air intake that has the same amount of piping costs 300-600 dollars, the belts bracketry and all the other parts probably cost another 2000-3000 if you include the manifold, and intercoolers are not cheap, then there is labor and overhead, legal fees, warranty insurance, carb approval, marketing, shipping costs, it sure as hell isn't going to be 5000 and if it is stillen worked some god damn impressive haggling miracles.

I'm going to ask the same question i asked in the GTM thread and that is how come the maf sensors aren't placed ahead of the supercharger to measure the actual uncompressed air charge with IAT's split off and mounted into the manifold to measure the real intake temps, or were you able to upgrade the stock MAP sensor to gauge the pressure created in the manifold? Or are we looking at a tune that is going to modify the VE tables to simply go around that?
