i actually tried emailing them a couple of weeks ago but i got no resopnse

Rotoman

I talked to Cam from Pettit last week, and Cam told me it will still be about 4/5 weeks. They said they are just trying to provide the best SC they can for the customer and so they are doing some minor tweaking before they release it..

I was on the list for a long time but greddy came out with an awesome kit so I got greddt instead.

im hoping that the pettit supercharger will be a little cheaper than the greddy turbo. what do u guys think? It doesnt have as many parts included and it is easier to install.

I recall hearing the high power Pettit kit would be ~5K, but that was a while back. The low power kit was ~3K.

doubt it, i think the greddy is as cheap as it can get. Unless you're getting the low boost kit from petitt I doubt a s/c for this application be cheaper than a turbo.

So what is the difference between their HIPO and "Low power" kits?

I just got off the phone with the sales manager. He will try this weekend to reply to us with news! He said the SC is done, but they have just been too busy with work to get us the details. :D

I think it was an Intercooler only

I like the looks of this kit, and I too have heard that they've worked out the bugs Motor Trend reported early on and are pretty much ready to go to market. No idea on prices, but I'll bet this'll be one of the best power-producing kits on the market. We'll see. Maybe I'll give 'em a call tomorrow.

Fanman

One has the intercooler, and has the boost turned up, the other one is the low (ahem..."standard") power kit

I wonder what mine will be then if I am intercooling it, and using the next larger size blower

Cheers,

Dont be too disappointed that they didnt get back to you via email. I dont even think they check it to be honest. The statement that they didnt return my email has been said countless times...

I cant wait to hear more news about this S/C... That would be cool if you would call Omi.

Lock & Load

Hymees, advanced but late to the party :p intercooled supercharged with bigger ***** than pettits

cheers

Correct if I'm wrong, but I think the kit produces about 220 RWHP and 165 FT/LBS. I remember from Sevenstock7 they were saying around 30-50 HP depending on the intercooler option. The one down at Irvine had a water to air IC, but I think they were changing to air to air if I remember correctly. Abel Ibarra got to drive it, and he came back with a big grin on his face...
