I was looking at this at Focaljet. Notice how low the SC sits. The only problem I see is where the TB sits. Now tell me why this would not work with little modification? Jeez the battery even sits in the same spot. :rolleyes:

Based on what I have read on focaljet and others, the question may be moot.
$3000 for 50 hp at the wheels.

But that is my point. Terry's stage 1 kit (about $3600+) will only give you 180hp at the crank. You put one of these,50hp at the wheels plus a smaller pulley to up boost and you got yourself a pretty good deal for $2500 for the SC and ?? for the pulley.

I would be more worried about how much torque you are getting. LoCo, are you talking about the Stage 1 kit at www.demondynamics.co.uk? If not ignore my doped-ass (see Rice Percentage thread)...but there Stage 1 kit is 190-220+ BHP which is a big difference than 190-220+HP...

Well first I am talking about for me. I have a ATX so anything above 200 Hp is really out of the question. I really don't have the money to mod the ATX too. That is why I brought this whole SC thing up. It gives you some pretty good numbers (about 50 hp to wheels), cheaper by a grand, and gives you power as soon as you step on the gas. It was brought up before but it was said that it would not fit. I'm seeing pics showing me that it is a strong possibility that it will fit.
