Watching the video, it's a marketing video, but I get the feeling they were fairly honest about their lap times, not too much BS going on. Their car looks awesome, and those brakes.....

I don't think it'll be much of a competition, cost wise, unless Harrop decides to get a U.S. Vendor.

Although, power output, longevity, and track capability I do see a competition.

Could be wrong though

Pricing on the email they sent out today is $6,688 AUD w/GST without ECUTek tuning.

The USD is pretty favorable against AUD right now so that comes out to $4,312 USD. Harrop has US distributors for other products, I'm sure they will pick one up soon for this and the pricing will be less than $5K.

This is the dyno they included as well. Also notice it has the boost on it, .6BAR so a little less than 9PSI, which is nothing on that supercharger.

Ohhhhh this is gonna be a fun show down between these two superchargers.

I agree

I wonder if some of the people who bought the early turbo or supercharger kits would pick a different one with all the kits and new versions or smaller pulley kits coming out

Yoda · 08-28-2015, 04:37 PM

From the looks of it its not going to come down to power since they are so close but rather everything else.

SomedayIsuppose · 08-28-2015, 04:38 PM

The Edelbrock SC with the warranty would push me towards that one over the Harrop. Not saying it's a better kit, just more piece of mind that I won't be on the hook for a new engine if something goes sideways. Looks awesome though.

Scottemad123 · 08-28-2015, 04:38 PM

I would assume cooling differences, from a glance the harrop looks like it has a different set up than the E-force.

Yes yes I would.

Their warranty covers the engine? Seriously doubt that...

Freeman · 08-28-2015, 04:44 PM

3yr/36K mile drive train warranty.

Indeed it does, so long as it is installed by an ASE certified tech, or a dealer they will cover it for 3years/36000 miles IIRC from the purchase date.

Harrop uses twin intercoolers, one on each side of the S/C. I think it's a better setup since with the IC sideways you can fit a relatively thick core in there.

Hmm I think it was up to 36,000 miles not from date of install but total miles on the car.
