That is some cramped packaging, but looks great.

I assume you are talking FMIC here? Pictures of the intercooler?

It's pre-production, but you get the idea I think.

How big of a supercharger unit can we put on these cars? People with higher hp numbers in mind may want to use these kits instead of going the turbo route. I understand you are getting the base kit ready but will their be larger units able to be swapped out for people looking for 600 or so rwhp.

It uses a V-3 gearcase, so although we haven't personally put any of the larger head units in the car...it is likely that most (if not all) of the head units that use that same gearcase (V-1/V-2/V-3) should fit. A custom inlet would likely be required, but other than that they should drop right in.

Typically it is on one side so you can just flip it
