Yes, but the buyer would need to pay for shipping. And I’m not willing to take returns on shipped orders (since it is a strut tower bar in like-new good condition - it is what it is).

Derale is sending me the cover to go on top of the sandwich. Hopefully I'll get it this week. I'd much rather not have to go with a non OEM filter.

I think that kind of makes sense. The stock NA engine sucks ~12 PSI of vacuum at idle, and my Rotrex supercharger offsets that by +~3 PSI at idle. My peak reading at around 25 PSI is when the engine...

I think if you superimpose the dynos from the normal pulley to the "high-boost" setup, most if not all the gains will be in the top-end, not down at 2000rpm. I recall the power above the stock...

Jcl not sure if you found it yet but the first page of this thread has a link to where you can buy the belt.

Kraftwerks Supercharger Owners Thread

Maybe it isn't a nut but it is the actual bolt that goes through the KW idler pulley and threads onto the tensioner. You will have to remove your intake piping to get at it easier.
