A "higher boost" application would require replacing the compressor.... not a cheap upgrade! A supercharger is not a turbo where you can change or adjust the boost. I suggest we stay in touch with them and keep posting updates.

I too am ready to buy but under the current circumstances it would not yet make any sense.

The last time I talked on the phone about a "boost upgrade" with Mike B (general manager) he said that was the first time he had heard of such a kit...

A boost upgrade could also mean a smaller compressor drive pulley with an intercooler to provide a few extra "safe" psi beyond the 6psi already used...

Actually, on SC applications, one can simply use a smaller pulley to increase boost. The NOVI SC used in the Comptech kit actually can produce quite a bit of boost. I imagine Comptech would use a smaller pulley and add more fuel via larger injectors.
