Not much room between the block and the intercooler reservoir. At least it appears that way.

Looks amazing though! I'd also get the Cold Air when it comes out. Looks a little odd with the factory box, but actually helps with the sleeper look!

Badass bro! If I wasn't set on a Procharger, I'd be jealous!

Hey Daniel after C&C I stopped by Pep Boys Speed shop to visit Alex.I got a chance to check out his Paxton supercharged 5.0

Man that thing is sick and I'm sure your set up will be just as nice

you barely hear the blower over the exhaust I mean It's quiet real stealth

He's going to try and make it out to SCS next Sunday
that would be cool if you got your car before then so We could have 2 blown 5.0's rolling in with us

I'm gonna have a surprise for you guys in a few weeks lol

well its intercooled, i dont know if the cars you saw had intercoolers.

or they got the tuner kit and they are making the complete kit with my car.

but what they told me was that all the kits that are out(maybe the intercooled kits) have tuning that isnt suitable for street/ daily driven cars.

Daniel let me know if your car requires any road testing to get it dialed in
