After a few months have passed would you still make this purchase again if given the choice? What kind of quater mile times have you experienced? Is it difficult to launch with the added power?

 

Absolutely... I'd do it again!!! ... especially with the 6MT. As far as quarter mile times, I haven't run yet. But I'm not a big fan of 1/4 mile runs. I'm more into road-racing. But 1st gear can be difficult to launch in. Stickier tires will help some, but it will still be tricky to launch without getting wheel spin.

 

I'd do it in a heartbeat, it really kicks with the 5AT especially in 2nd and 3rd - AWESOME !!

 

Sorry - no disrespect... 5AT with S/C is great too...

 

5at + sc + Scalberts full IC Kit = (have to see how the tranny wiil hold up though).

 

HECK YEAH-I would do it again!!!

 

do you have scalbert's IC installed?

 

Without a doubt or hesitation I would do it again. I love being able to leave the traffic behide without ever getting above 4k revs. So that when I do punch it the feeling is great.

The launches can be difficult in 1st but you can deal with it. Or just launch in 2nd as there is enough power to pull you through the revs.

 

Not ready yet but it will be soon. I should have the new core in a week and it is off to be welded up to the manifold.

Mmmm, intercooler

I'd do the S/C sooner. I bought my car back in summer '00 and I can't believe all the fun I've missed out on over the years.

 

Seattle,
how many miles did you have on the car when you installed the SC?

 

... glad I took the plunge..

but I am waiting for Scalbert to contact me so I can take it to the next level...

 

Not sure, maybe I should have bought a faster car.

 

Hey Bro, are you bringing that bad boy to the West Coast Meet in Portland on July23rd ?? We'll have a few other SCd cars there to check out

 

38000 miles on blower and still love it

 

I love the s/c. Its adds so much to the car. I know the gains are not huge HP wise, but the torque is really felt. The car stays so smooth the only real downside is the cost, but hey you forget about that the first time you romp on it.

 

wished I had one

 

Patiently waiting, can't wait to get more low end torque . Can't wait to see the new design Scalbet .

Smitty, are you getting the kit?

Red Rider, I won't have the IC kit before August. Being in LA, I wish I could take a road trip, but I can't get time off from work .

 

That extra 50 lb/ft will be very noticeable.

 

65,000 miles. I've got about 2500 into the S/C so far.

 

I'm pretty sure I'm coming, but I've been reluctant to commit and then back out at the last minute like last year. I'll look at my schedule today and commit either way by tonight. It sounds like a blast this year! Hope I get my HBP by then...where is it Velocity Resources??????

 

No doubt I'd do it again!

 

I am watching out for a good deal in the black market. I guess we will see if something comes along

 

i think its a must to run the hbp with the blower, stock psi aint enough

 

Keep the faith with Dean. He's been helping me out a lot lately. Call, e-mail, or PM him. He's still here for us with lots of info. Hopefully, my SC will be shipping next week.
