Thanks smart ***. If you think about it a electronic boost controller could be developed pretty easy.

On the some 6-71 supercharger manifolds for V8's. There is a pop-off plate on the manifold. It's held in place by two springs. These springs regulate boost pressure in the maniflod. To change the boost setting. You have to change the springs to a different weighted springs. Should say that this is not a boost controller per-say. It's the last line of protection before the motor eats it's self for lunch. But I know of some people who use it as a controller. Instead of changing pulleys. They adjust spring tension. Stupid.

Toyota have done that on their factory supercharged cars, So yes this can be done through a capable EMS .

We did a twin turbo kit so why not a Twin supercharger set up, something different and fun to do. We wont make less power, The Smaller Rotrex chargers have up to 80% efficiency rate and this chargers has minimal parasitic draw. So far the rotrex units have met and exceeded our expectation in all aspect . I don't think we will be disappointed. Also we wanted to take supercharging the VQ37 platform to a complete different level and mainly offer all our AWD customer a good solution.
