Keep us updated! I'm very interested in this kit.

Any reason why you went with this blower as opposed to a KB, Saleen, or Whipple?

I'm not saying your decision was bad, but I was just wondering.

Well I was leaning to the Saleen S/C, but I Saw the Edelebrock at SEMA, and liked the built in intercooler/ and low boost, and I guess I just think it looks cool

The boy's at Edelebrock say install in a home S/B about 10 hours, a shop can do it in 3. So I'm thinking it sgould take me about 8 hours or so.

That thing looks sinister. Did they have any additional data/ PSI levels at SEMA?

This if from Edelbrock........" [FONT='Calibri','sans-serif']No boost pump or new fuel pump required. We have engineered the system to bolt-on. With more boost we will max out the factory fuel system, requiring an upgraded pump. "[/FONT]

[FONT='Calibri','sans-serif']So I guess thats the answer....... Now the real question....... What will this thing do with MORE boost..... I think that theres Lots more to come with this unit.[/FONT]

think I am crazy, but am seriously considering dropping a deposit this week after a long discussion with CR at Tillman. I am just a bit nervous about this being a "new" product and not able to see any feedback/real world testing to prove it's capabilities and if this design is really worth the investment...

Decisions, decisions... man, having something like this under the tree would make for the best present to myself - EVER!!

Well, the deed is done! Just dropped my pre-order deposit with Chris and now the wait begins!!!! Considering this will not only be my first "blown car", I have never even riden in a car with a blower... I can hardly wait. But with winter just starting here in WI, spring will not get here soon enough so I can have some fun with all my new HP!!!!

If this system arrives in time, it will be installed during my planned Christmas time off. And with my brothers in town for the holidays, this will be an awesome opportunity to wrench with these guys again.

You'll be thrilled, Doug!

Let me know if there's anything else we can do for you. Anyone else need to get on the preorder list?

Well, how about a smokin' deal on the 3 pod SOS filled with gauges?? Seeings how I quickly sold off my CAI and X3 this morning, might just have to pursue the gauges now.

I can put together a nice package deal for you absolutely. Vac/Boost, Wideband, Water Temp, SOS 3 Pillar? Cobalt Series?


Oh, and for those who were asking... we're selling this kit at $5795.99 all the time, not going to be $5995.99, even after the pre-orders.
