Re: SUPER CHARGER

Right. It's finaly going in on Monday. Wheels still not here but they are expecting them next week. Just as well because I'll be having traction problems. They are going to set it up with 9psi now!!! Running a 'piggy back' computer and bigger injectors to handle the higher boost than the 7 we first looked at doing. Will take a while to fit as there is no kit on the market for a Procharger and a 140. Everything has to be custom made. Even the intercooler that comes with the blower will have to be customised.
I'll be taking a bunch of pix so you lot can have a peek

RE: SUPER CHARGER

you're mechanic is spending too much time eating Kirkland Signature Cashews. LOL

You really get those in NZ? That's amazing. I get them in US.
