powerworks super charger info
i just got done talking to these guys in person and got all the info in this kit.
this kit uses stock ecu with bigger injectors. only run 4 psi but uses a big supercharger. they have had no problems with this kit at all so far and going to release it feb or march 2006 for around 4k the power out put for this kit is 230whp
the kit looks very clean in person im going to get this when it comes out

O and what was the change between this kit and the one at sema? Thanks for the updates though.

his first response was saying this is the company i was refering to as being at sema and this is the final release version.
they are not changing the pcm maps because the maps are broad enough to handle this level of boost when using bigger injectors

Can't really tell from the pictures but when you seen it at sema were they using a twin screw s/c or a roots?

Go Texas Longhorns!
I can't wait to here the reports on this one, I have a really hard time buying you could boost a car with no change in the engine management, most due to the really aggresive timing which I would think you'd need to back off.
Not saying it can't be done, hell, if they have, more power to them. They appear to have designed the kit and boost levels to fit that strategy.
Hopefully we can get some first person impressions soon.

Did you happen to get a close up of that spec sheet they had on the car? If its the same one I saw at SEMA its running 6.5 psi boost, not 4. They told me four at SEMA as well and then you look at the spec sheet and it says .45 kg/cm^3. I'm curious to know what boost they are pulling power numbers from, if its 4 psi the spec sheet they have on the car isn't valid.

i spoke to a tall filipino guy with long spiky hair at D1 on sat. the info i got was quite different then what was given to you. he told me they were making 260 to the wheels and 200 kw of torque. he also said they were using stock injectors though. i asked him twice to make sure and he stuck to his guns on both occasions. he claims he drives the car everyday and that he knew the car well. maybe he was a bit slow
