Default 400hp

We don't calculate in hp downhere, by talking to a few people its about 380hp
I know it's got a bucket load of torqe 560nm. it went from a standard 210kw to 280 kw (just over 190kw) at the rear wheels. No chip or engine mods not even taken the ehxaust all the way through only the back end. If I was to do a chip and take the exhaust all the way through we will get 400hp. All I can say is the Superchargers are clutched they can be turned on and off and when they are not there it feels very slow

Default Power Conversions

I Just Googled a converter here are the figures US Style

375.49 Horsepower
412 lb/ft torque

Hope this helps, not quite as quick as the ISF though which has over 400hp i believe

Default On/Off Switch

You can have a lot of settings with this kit, you can set where it comes in at and you can completely turn it off. I have it set to low so it gives me an immediate kick

This is the first time I have seen the interior shot of that control switch.

Is that Blitz Supercharger reliable?

The Blitz kit is great just bolt it on and away you go, the other good thing it is not chewing up much more fuel. The kit only runs about 4lb of boost and i lost about 30 miles a tank

Glad that you share that Blitz info with us.

Do you happen to have a sound clip from your car?
I have Tom's sound clip, but never found the Blitz's.

go to www.photobucket.com and get a new account.
then upload your file there and then copy and paste the link (IMG CODE) here.

For example, this is the video clip of the DEPARTUREⅣ exhaust system on SC430 I just uploaded to my photobucket account.
