@D_K Looks like it uses the stock air box, so i'm going to say no.
Will this bad boy be carb legal? We need updates, it's almost been an hour! |

Looks like another Rotrex kit but lack up content makes this a big boner kill.

I'm interested in seeing *which* Rotrex this is based off of?
I know the first series was based on a Rotrex design that Rotrex binned. They felt there were reliability issues. Hopefully the newer ones are based off of more current Rotrex designs. D |

This new setup has a few advantages over a rotrex kit. This new transmission is built to have less parasitic drag.

Not to derail the thread but the twin-charger setup is kind of ingenious the way they routed everything. The turbo (which looks tiny) feeds directly into the supercharger inlet. I was always curious how well that would work and how efficient the S/C would be at compressing the already compressed air, but apparently works well enough. Have to lose the A/C though so I'm not sure they will make this as a production kit.
