Well, you can look at it this way:

Vortech supercharger, no intercooler, 9 PSI = around 270-300HP

If you where to take away the parasitic effects of a supercharger, and add an intercooler, one would assume more HP possible. Add ice to the intercooler's supply line, and you should get more power.

The kit will be running around 8PSI base. What you do with it later is up to you. (it does have a wastegate) However, the intercooler only flows around 450cfm which is still good for around 9-10PSI at 5000rpm on a 2.5L

Only a dyno run will reveal the amount of HP gains this kit will make. The car that the first kit is being developed on has already had numerous dyno runs before the turbo.

ok, i do plan on buying the turbo, however i plan on doing the 3.0L and turbo together...and my dad suggests not buying them until i have the money for both. i know your planning on taking down payments in a few weeks, is there anyway u can take them later than that? thanks.

Are you going to be at SZ2002?

Chris, will this fit the regular Duratec's and SVT Duratec's?

Yes

what do u think will give out more power u think? because i want power

hey chris how you said we can do whatever after that could we put another turbo on that is bigger ? thanks chris

Sure. This will void any warranty provided by the company that is making this kit. The warranty is going to be 12 month unlimited milage, against manufacturers defects. If the engine is blown due to changing the boost pressure, you're on your own. We will have the exact wording of the warranty soon enough.

What about 3.0 motors. Will there need to be any special accomodations for the 3.0 swappers?

Also, are you accepting credit cards for purchasing the kit, or is this an all cash option?

Hey Chris, I've got a question to add on to Mike's question. How about Monopoly money??


But seriously, does the company that is making this plan on manufactoring them for awhile? Some of us might not have the money now, but would really really like to get one in a year or two.
