TTS uses Rotrex blowers which push far more torque than the novi's, and I'm currently using the n1200.
SOS kits also suffer from belt slip when using a 3"pulley or less (I'm currently using a 3.2) and you lose power. TTS' kit utilised an 8rib pulley and belt from memory, and you have the luxury of adjusting boost at your discretion with a restrictor plate in the rotrex blower.
I won't be doing this though, I'll be running full boost on the c38-91 (approx 18-20psi) on e85 on the stock engine. I'll be aiming for 450-500whp
I know turbo is not for everyone, but If I was to do it all over I'd go turbo.

This pretty much covers my reasons over using a turbo - for now mind you, before I decided on continuing supercharging again, I was really close to getting one of the kings performance stage one kits, inline pro stage two or the full blown motorsports but decided otherwise!

No one in Aus makes a SC kit. A few import kits from the UK and US but you'll end up paying for freight anyway, can't avoid the duty and have to pay a premium.
And most US kits fit RHD anyway. SCs have very little to do with the hot side of the engine and that's where the steering rod runs. My original Comptech kit placed the FPR where the battery is on RHD. I just cut up the bracket and fitted it to the cross member. No biggy.
As to S2kjn going for another SC, to each their own, but I wouldn't be posting the sellers sales spiel as justification. It's hardly a non-biased account.

I was thinking about selling the S2k for few personal choices like wanting more Power?, something for the Family? well decided my Mrs has a family car and the s2k is for me lol. Have decided to go super charge after seeing the thread in forced induction Old Kraftwerks VS New Kraftwerks and man what a weapon there is a video
that's impressive 13.0 quarter mile. I have contacted supplier and thinking organising a group buy if there is demand.
Cheers
