I got vortech and I pass inspection making 476hp at the fly 401 to the wheels. do you need more power then that? then you just swap a pully and hit 450rwhp. if you need more than that.... Then being smog legal is not your only problem.

Please do some research before posting questions like this. The 07 has only been out for a month or two now. If you want to know when kits for it will be available, you should be calling the manufacturers.

I would agree with what he said. I do not think the money for the supercharger is worth it from a performance standpoint. If you are going to go FI then go TT. IMHO I think once you step into the worl of FI you should not concern yourself with whether it is CARB legal. You can get a SMOG inspection done where you will pass no matter what. Go TT, go big, or go home!!! That is what I think!!

I'm sure those who have got busted with random searches from the cops will disagree with this statement. Sure, majoroty of ppl don't have any issues, but I feel for the ppl who have goten busted, tickets, cars impounded.

All FI is going to give you the same performance on the stock motor. The OP asked about legal FI options, not what will get you the most power on a built motor.
