I'm considering finally pulling a trigger on a SC kit and this or JRSC is high on the list. A few questions about this one:
1) It seems the jackson racing dual radiator/oil cooler works with this - do I need a specific bracket or something? I currently have the N/A version installed 2) What supporting mods need to be done for 240-280whp to be track reliable? I'm more concerned with reliability here than power (but more would be nice of course) - I'm a little worried the high torque output of the PD supercharger is going to be more harsh on the engine/trans but I haven't heard much issues (outside e85 high boost)? Are temps a concern compared to something like JRSC - I know <240 oil temps seem to be the sweet spot for long term reliability; is that achievable here (or even with the rotrex unit for that matter)? 3) Seems like a lot of issues with CARB tune, is the consensus just to skip that and get the TIY kit?

Fine with me as I have yet to install my used kit yet. A fall project after track season. Should I go with CSG or Delicious for my tune? |

Personally I would avoid Delicious, I think CSG has their old tuner on their staff now FYI.

CSG 100%. Zach is incredibly talented and has very safe base tunes. He also knows the failure points of this engine and ramps in boost/timing slowly to preserve it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Do you guys know when Zach left delicious? I got v31.53 of the edelbrock tune from delicious in August 2020 and I’m wondering if it was tuned by him and has these safeguards. Also what do you guys mostly see as the performance differences between Delicious / HRI / CSG

I've already got the Grimmspeed CAI, so it's possible fit it to the supercharger? |

I have no iron in this fire, and no educationed opinion of Zach's tunes. I'm just saying I've seen no reason to not use DT. |

FedEx delivered the filter today. Really not much of a delay considering it had to clear customs as well. Thanks Jegs!

The filter setup from edelbrock looks a bit ridiculous to me. Giant filter with a small opening letting air into it. I realize it reduces pressure drop, but does that small opening not limit the pressure to begin with?
