The SOT kit uses a piggyback called an ELF (emissions legal fueling). The ELF uses boost (on board map sensor) and the injector cycle that is being sent from the ECU to determine how much longer the injector needs to be held open. You adjust the tip in (where added injector duration is required), the amount of additional duration per pound of boost, and the maximum duration. My early impression is that it works and leaves the car in a very drivable condition - but it is not perfect. I would prefer that you could map on boost, rpm, etc.. Idealy it would be nice to have a piggyback that allowed you to set a target AF ration (from a wideband) and then have it manage from there.

but the vortec makes more power?
I'm just wondering what are the pro's to this blower vs vortec?

It doesn't move much air until the high rpm range. It is more for showing off high peak dyno numbers than real world performance.
The Eaton moves air over the entire rpm range - you have full torque from very low rpm ...

think about moving the S/C to the intake side instead.

, I prefer having fat area under the curve over a high peak #. Postive displacement blower make the car feet like it has a bigger NA motor.I am very interested in this Supercharger kit.

Certainly..
Anyone interested in the bracket to mount the fuse box? There were a couple of PM's from people asking about it - but I did not recognize them as frequent members here.
I will ask them about it this week.

I am turbo with a log style manifold and i want to move the heater valve in that orentation. if i can move the fuse box that way also, it would be great! thanks for asking.
