I want to say it was left turns... As I think it was from the pickup on the right side the pump struggled to pump fuel over to the left side simply to be re pumped. Don't quote me on it though.

This. Don't get over concerned people.

I'm still dreaming about this kit but can't justify it mentally just yet. Can't wait to see people actually start installing and posting videos so I can get some customer feedback. My car's away for the winter so I will do some re-thinking come spring time

I'm starting the install of mine tonight

SAME situation here, fully committed to something. Just want some real user feedback, and most of all to see Bob @ Drift-Office impressions and dynos to comparing this to the JR kit and others.

We will get the final dyno graph with boost plot up soon.

Any word on this?

Question... What made you guys choose this kit over one such as the Vortech kit?

[Turbowned]

Someone make 300whp on 93 octane and tell me how to do it so next year I can skip the trial-and-error. I'd like to think I could do it with full 2.5" exhaust with high-flow cats, smaller pulley and water/methanol injection. Perhaps a twin plate clutch and carbon fiber driveshaft to eliminate some parasitic loss.

Someone put that THIS SIDE UP package in the wrong way. Oh the humanity.

Or just run 93 octane, a GTX3071R, a nice free flow exhaust ( to keep combustion temps down ) and a stage 1 exedy clutch.

Why spend 3,000$ on a clutch & driveshaft to "save" some parasitic loss. Buy cheap rpf1 to save parasitic loss. 300WHP has been done multiple times on 93 octane now.

As a reference I ran 360WHP for 6k miles on a stock clutch... but apparently I dont drop my clutch and do "mad tyte" shifts like average person...

Or were you asking how to make 300WHP on 93 octane with this kit specifically?

He wants to do it the hard way using a belt driven supercharger.
