Me too. I don't know why others persist with 15 posts/page when 40/page is just a click away.

I can tell you. Try it with dial up. This site takes long enough to load 20 post, imaging if you had to load 40 posts/page over dial up!!!!!!!

I often think about it but machining nickle alloy isn't something I like to do.
We machine these by flank cutting between the blade with a very small cutter. I don't think it could work in Hastalloy.
Then there's all the controls that get complicated.

I do know someone who does make a small model airplane jet engine though.
It's kinda neat for about 5G's.

Is that a light at the end of the tunnel I see?

Is that merely a test fitting or is it the complete kit including an ECU solution? If its the later, you must include at least a sound clip or the whole forum will you. You get that thing running and tuned with dyno sheets and this thread will melt the server.

Start the countdown...12 more posts until 2000

As with Hymee's supercharger there is no projected completion date. They are done when they are done and everything works properly. Until that point there are also no definitive power numbers. There are goals but even those are only just speculative around the 300 hp mark until actually proven. We'll all just have to wait and see.

All with a "plug and play" harness = no splicing/cutting the factory loom.

Oh yeah.... i am confusing the two :P Both long threads.

Here's a few to start with...

www.performancecenter.com
www.sportcompactonly.com
www.optionsauto.com
www.nopionline.com
www.srmotorsports.com
www.rx7.com
www.turbo-kits.com/rx-8_turbo_kits.html
www.horsepowerfreaks.com
www.hopupracing.com

The guys at performance center are very knowledgeable. Ask for Elson at ext. 268. He's helped me out a lot and will beat competitor's prices if you tell him where you got the price. Every time I have ordered from Sport Compact Only my merchandise has arrived early and in perfect condition.

I'm wondering if Richard is going to give away a super charger for the 3000th post, oh wait what do you know thats me. Well PM and i will give you my address so you can ship one out. Seriouly great work and I can't wait to see how this product performs. It has been a thrilling read all these years. I wish you 3000 more post but I think it would be better if the next 3000 were praises from all your customers about how good this supercharger is. Keep up the good work
