I have 2 questions:
1) Isnt the cost of the Rotrex pump about twice the cost of a Vortech or Procharger? 2) Will the location of the pump reduce it's efficiency from the heat coming from the exhaust, or can that be completely negated with an intercooler? Thanks, Looks great! |

Now for the blower location the factory manifolds are very well shielded so we are not really worry about that, only one way to know, A lot of testing and data logging . Sam |

The blower is not really that close to exhaust manifold, I will have to take some better pics of that area and in the event you do have after market headers, I would recommend the Thermo-Tec Exhaust Insulating warp, it works very well

Turbos would be a blast i'm sure, I just feel like a Super would be a wiser choice for a car that will be daily driven 10k+ a year...
either way it is great that you guys offering both |

+1
Our turbo system have 6 different stages with nine different turbo options ,so you can start with 500WHP Stage 1 kit and go all the way to 1100 WHP + stage 6 (duel GT35R'S) with the same kit just different turbos, you could not do that with a supercharger Sam |
