Has anyone tried to see if this is legit at all? Considering the guy that posted it has all of 7 posts, the image doesn't exist anywhere else on the net, and the not quite professional quality of the pic. (I'm pretty sure the lens was dirty and you can see photog in the reflection.) My spidey senses were tingling when I first saw this. Now after giving it a week and still not finding another example of the pic with tinyeye, I'm pretty sure someone is trolling.

For whatever that's worth. More options is good I suppose. I think I'm done hoping for newer products to blow me away. Between Full Blown, P&L, AVO and Vortech, I think I have all my FI options covered should I decide to go that way.

I am definitely not a troll lol, I found that picture on their Facebook, which was also tweeted and posted on their Instagram. I typed that post on my phone so I had to use photobucket to grab the URL. As is everyone else I'm quite curious to see what come from this.

This is not a twin screw. It is a rotrex centrifugal.

A plus for this kit is that JR applies for and gains CARB certification for their SC kits. One example is The CRZ kit is a well rounded kit and CA legal.

This will never happen.

But the other kit.

Turbo is better.

No, supercharger is better.

Rotrex sucks.

You suck.

Perrin said.

But Visconti said.




Does that about cover it? Can we just watch to see if this is real and if so how it plays out?

I'll add....

Are you running a super secret pulley for those numbers?
Has this unit been tracked thoroughly? I only buy track tested units...
Do I need fuel injectors?

Why on earth would you want another centrifugal from a different company? lol

If you are dead set on centri just buy another vortech! I bet they'd give you a discount or maybe a buy 2 get 1 free. I dont see the results of yet another centri being much different than the 2 centri's already out (Vortech and HKS).
