have you guys seen this supercharger kit?

i was on youtube and i found a video of a RIPPS supercharged Ralliart that put out 232whp. i went to their site and they actually have it up for sale, nearly the same price as the RRM turbo kit though ($4Gs') here's a link to their site http://www.rippstore.com/ProductDeta...=0607SDSI4%2D1

yes ive seen it, there are threads on this, you might have to do some searching but their here. i believe the kit puts out 242whp and 212wtq. although a lot of the turbo guys didnt like this kit. one guy from MD has this kit and he said that he loved it, but i think the turbo guys scared him away. lol.

232 whp at 9PSI pretty impressive must be on meth also. Probably lacks torque but still.

^yeah that was the arguement with the turbo guys. they were not impressed with the torque #s. for the price i would rather go turbo IMO. and yes the kit uses meth injection.

That's a nice looking kit! I wanna do my valve cover like that. I dunno though, therez something I don't like about a SC on a 4cyl... just seems like it belongs on v6 or bigger.

Is that a meth bottle just after the MAF?

I think the tank and squirters are after the maf since you wouldn't want to run the injection through the MAF. The BOV is before the MAF.

Nice looking, but I agree, for the money, it would be much better to go with a turbo kit; better numbers and more possibilities.
