There is so much information that needs to be understood by everyone to begin having a good debate, that just isnt possible on an internet forum.
I'm no engineer. Most of us aren't and shouldn't have to be. My opinion is that for 9k, a customer should be able to bolt it on and make some jam. I'm not talking about laser aligning belts or any reasonable amount of tuning and tweaking. I'm talking about tackling all of the issues this one has and making power. That blower has its purpose. The problem is the promises that were made to solve this problem and never came to fruition after 2 years. If you tell someone this'll make 550rwhp, then there's no lie there, but to post up a dyno sheet showing 800rwhp and tell everyone your motor will make if you build a good motor, that isn't acceptable. Jeff loves to brag and exaggerate about anything and everything he can. From how much time he spends on the phone with his customers to how big his office is. Based on that, if he did one of his "1000's" of customers cars that made any decent power, I guarantee he would be posting it everywhere. Go to his website and you'll see the only car he has on his "customer cars" page is an 06 convertible that made ~550rwhp. You can make that kind of power with an old Magnuson 112, a Procharger P1SC, Vortech Si-trim or any other type of entry level supercharger for half the price. Also N/A with a well built 408.
