aren't they done making these SC'ers? I thought someone mentioned that their original run of SC'ers was complete and they were done.
(I think Moon might have said it??? )

I don't think it was Moon that said that but they are on the last of the run of s/cs. The factory is not going to make more of that s/c but Pettit was give that information in advance and has already acquired another unit that will work as the one that is already out there. I did not bother to ask him how the kit will change. When I taked to him at SS he had enough to complete the current orders.

so do i have this right... basically there going to stop producing that specific model supercharger at the factory that makes them but pettit is contracting another factory to produce another model?so when it comes time for me to purchase one they will have either the current model or a new one? and what ever happened to the stage 3?

No its the same manufacturer, just a change in model numbers etc.

Lysholm are rationalising their model line up after buying another company.

All is well, but there was also a small delay in s/c production while Lysholm retooled / refitted their factory.

Cam did not tell me that part, just that he was covered. Oh well, two old men (actually one old man and one that is on his way) sitting in the shade at Seven Stock watching all the pretty girls go by had better things to talk about

The last I heard was that they weren't planning on it due to the fact that the stage 2 w/ flash performed better than expected. I know that right now, they are working on other things.

I asked Cam about the Stage III back in April, and with a huge grin on his face, he jokingly replied, "we're not going to do the Stage III, we're skipping the Stage III and going right to Stage IV!"

I think they're just going to keep improving the Stage II.

so does the stage 2 run 5 psi or what? have they made differnt pulleys yet to up the boost? im assuming higher boost pulley would require more fuel mods to be safe...although if you installed a meth kit you should be able to up it at least a couple pounds.. whats the most whp someone has made with the supercharger? and whats the highest boost pressure someones run on a highly modded fuel system and EMS? like im interested to know how much hp this kit is able to support.. and how much boost you can produce with this thing. can you mod the fuel system and up the boost to say 12psi and make like 400whp?

Wait until the end of the month and ask that question again.

the blower may run out of air at 9k and 400hp. Plus you will have to do work on the fuel system injectors etc. that many hp to the wheel--drop in a 20B

summit racing --my mistake-- it is a cyberdyne gauge not auto meter-- digital (needed to see clearly each degree)--part number cyb-A024E061V--cost $39 before shipping. You can get red or green colors.

nothing but a npt adapter you can get from lowes or home depo. I forgot the size but I think it is a 1/2 on the male end and 1/4 on the female end. Then it screws right in.
Make sure the sensor will stick out pass the end of the adaptor--i had to cut mine a little with a hacksaw--the npt adaptor not the sensor lol. I used the red thread lock when i installed.
