WOW!! I'm a student with a heads cam 04 and I'm about to start saving every penny that I can to get one of these I have always wanted my GTO to be twinscrew this is like a dream come true lol
I really hate to keep asking, but I think a lot of people are interested.... Hows the boost controller going to work with a SC and can we use any controller we would like, or are you selling the controller with the kit as an add on.

I'm sure you are aware that the 2004-2006 Pontiac GTO is derived from the Australian made Holden Monaro. Although the '04-'06 GTO's are small in numbers in the USA there is actually a massive amount of their Aussie counterparts all the way down here. The Monaro/GTO is actually a coupe' version of the family sedan - the Holden Commodore. The Commodore has many variants including wagons and luxury long wheelbase sedans known as Statesmans and all V8 versions of these variants carry LS1's or LS2's. These vehicles stretch back to the year 2000 and are commonly owned by people like your GTO owners - Hardcore Modders! Locally your market may be small but internationally your market is immense to say the least, Holden also sells these vehicles to the middle east badged as Chevrolets and to the UK badged as Vauxhalls. Your GTO Kenne Bell Supercharger Kit should fit all of these vehicles, the only problems the kit might face is that most of these vehicles are right hand drive which depending on the design of the kit may not prove to be such a hurdle to get over after all.
Cosidering the price that you are offering these Kenne Bell Supercharger Kits for and taking into account the potential power outputs that they are capable of, it is actually incredibly competetive in comparison to other products on the market. However with the current exchange rate of the Australian Dollar versus the US Dollar due to the global finacial crisis, it isn't really that cheap at the moment but hopefully things turn around soon.
I stumbled upon this thread and immediately registered with ls1tech because the pictures you displayed along with power figures simply amazed me! Pro Auto Performance is also a premium sponsor of Australian LS1 and Holden Forums (www.ls1.com.au), which incase you havent already checked out contains alot of information about these vehicles.

Now thats what im talking about!!! Thank you for posting Jeff. I would love to see TotalPerformance make a killing on these kits, and a bigger market is the way to go. I think they should be rewarded for what they are doing, and would love to see it make its way down there.
You hear that, Jeff?

If the kit is truly an all bolt on and away you go kit, then does that include other upgraded fuel system components other than fuel rails?
Does it come with upgraded injectors? If so, what size (lb/hr)?
Does it come with an upgraded fuel pump or swirl pot setup?, with power outputs that high it's gonna need mega fuel support! If it does come with this, is it a direct bolt up system too?
If not, could any one on here suggest a good bolt up fuel system to support this kind of power on a GTO? There are some systems you can get down here in oz but I think they'll be on their limit for this kind of setup, other than that we usually have to go with a custom system which means big dollars!

With this thread at 11 pages on this forum alone he is probably trying to finish off the kit and only post periodically would be my take on it. I have a GTO that I'm currently putting in a TH400 with a transbrake and a twin screw would be very nice to launch off of the transbrake to say the least.
EDIT:
Didn't he initially say these were going to be for G8's and GTO's? Isn't the G8 a square port motor? So there would be a blower manifold for each?
