What I meant to say that out of the the list given, the Edelbrock kit has a fairly complex install. I admit that I did omit Innovate/Sprintex and Cosworth, although I'm not sure how Rick from Rallysport Direct managed to lower the Cosworth supercharger down by himself in their install video.

I would consider them more difficult to install compared to a centrifugal supercharger.

They're considered the easiest installations.

The initial tune Edelbrock sent me was really awful and it wasn't even CARB approved. If you have to run their tune, I wouldn't even bother.

They are currently CARB, and have updated the tune several times. I recommend you contact them to get the latest calibration, or PM me your e-mail address, along with your Ecutek dongle ID, and I will have it sent to you.

Thanks for the offer, I've already spoken to them and provided them with a log with no help given. I went ahead and ordered a Delicious tune, which has worked just fine.
