the same things have been said about that kit ever since i joined this site, i dont think ANYONE in the world ever has put that on a 6gc tongue.gif

the thread comes up about once every 6 months or so, theres plenty of shady things with that kit.

like the rising rate fuel regulator thing, atleast i think thats what my friend said, he says companies usually throw things like that in their packages to compensate for sloppy programming. if someone coudl elaborate on this let me know, im not ENTIRELY knowledgable but i remember him telling me about it after reading the kit.

I think the main reason people have stood away is that its expensive. From online talk, I heard there good kits, and ripps has a good rep. I actually think a swap would be more expensive, when you add everything up. I might get flamed for that, but thats my opinion. I was thinking aftermarket for the electronics and a good tuner with a dyno.

hahhahaha, Im an avid guitar collector, and my girlfriend collects antique chests. Were wierd like that! The supercharger will happen. We just moved into a house, and my main concern is getting my garage up into
a decent shop to work in. Im plumbing air compressor lines and flourscent light wiring at the moment.

wow... this thread is back from teh grave! so has someone finally decided to go through w/ this s/c idea? glad to know it's getting some serious consideration wink.gif

it needs to be done! I think the kit is overpriced, and it would be easy to duplicate some of the fab stuff
to offer a cheaper kit.

I'm a drummer myself, and instead of a swap I soaked a little over 4 grand into an orange sparkle Drum Workshop Collectors Series kit. It was a great buy....but everyday I look at it and think to myself that I could have had a swap for that money kindasad.gif ....haha.

That was about a year ago....now its time for swap for me.
