My local speed shop, injection connection, strongly recommended this. Has anyone installed this or considering it? I know its a new product but Edelbrock is usually makes a great product.

Ive been on the phone with Edelbrock in Cali a couple times and was waiting for this to come out. I believe they are making a pamflet for applications to Ford, GM, Dodge but not 100% sure. Last time I spoke with them it was early this year.

at truckfest at summit racing in tallmadge ohio this past saturday they did a live install of one. it has the tvs style i belive. it looks great but with a 4'' pully it was making 5lbs. i was asking the techs and the warranty is void if you use anything other than the supplied tuner.

I did a little research on these a while back on a couple camaro forums. From what I read on a LS3 they are best on near stock motors and make more torque down low on those motors than a maggie. Top end a maggie will make more power especially on bigger modified motors. Not sure how one would do on a Lq9. The kit for a Sss is 1577.

^^Ditto. Did not read on a Camaro forum but from the Edelbrock and some articles about the roots system the company sent me (they had mentioned this system and how its low torque was great). I cannot remember if they mentioned if it was the roots or this new system that was not too stressfull on the motor.

thanks for the great input guys! i believe it is a roots based with the intercoolers on the skirt. Average price I've found is around 7k for the kit. not bad since a magnuson kit is around 6k.

Does anyone know if the tuner provided is just a flash, or will it learn for other mods? i.e LT's, 160°stat?

I was reading in an edelbrock supercharger brochure that one on a bone stock 2011 Silverado made 512 hp....

 

I want one once i do my 6.0 swap :drool:

 

 

a tad bit pricey though....i looked them up on ebay and they are like $7500-$8000...

Give them a few years, hopefully they'll drop a little in price.
