Thats only maxing out at 255 ish Still falling short of the 280
Not sure where the 255 came from...???

And of course this should be priced at similar to a turbo... this is a rotrex supercharger not a leaf blower. Rotrex units are known well in the racing world. Honda & Miata crowds know kraftwerks very well when it comes to performance driving.

And on the power gain, look at what the vortech and most of the turbo kits made right off the bat. This is a high compression engine "bolt on kits" are going to make very little power. Especially after only a year of production time. The unit is under-spun out of the box and has headroom to expand and is directly upgradeable to the C38 series rotrex units that are good for 700+HP. Look at my car vs the stock vortech kit... they were making a tad under 300HP at the crank.... and im making over that at the wheels. lol

The kit looks legit. They waited until other markets released their kit and are now releasing theirs. If I had known kraftwerks was going to be releasing a kit I would have held out for that originally.

I remember the K20 engine coming out and people saying that bolt ons and tuning did little to nothing. Now look at the k series motors... It was the exact same thing back then as we are experiencing now!

Was looking for more but aiming for a quick sale. Just bolt on and go. Plus you will have your stock setup if a strut ever does go bad you can use it to warranty it out.

Asking 250 cash or paypal or partial trade for car stuff.

Ok so I was just driving home and a Forrester with an after market exhaust shifted down next to me and zoomed past me. I was going to give in but then another suv was speeding behind me. I was like ok whatever do what you please. Then I realize it was a sheriff. Pulled over the Forrester. Hmm made me think, 88 anyone? Lol
