IN any case, I won't be trading...I am halfway through the supercharger install after tonite. Hopefully I'll finish up with it tomorrow, along with the Walbro install. After that...gotta order my widebands, haltech, and boost gauge...get that installed...and then I'm a short trip to KY to visit Hal away from FI!!!

to str8dum....the price for the haltech + tune...i have no clue what kind of built motor you are dealing with...unless you are doing it yourself...and even then, the haltech was way less. I could easily have 2-3 times the haltech in a built motor...not installed.

2600$, only 300$ or so more than a haltech

that's a shortblock...there's either

1) alot more money to be paid to have someone yank your motor, and swap all the parts over

or

2) alot of work to swap your own parts...plus, some more misc. costs in replacement parts...


do some more hw on the matter...then get back to us...

when you get them, post up the charts with and without cam phasing tuning. dont think anyones seen those on a blower. that would be interesting.

would be just like with a turbo, just a little less dramatic. since the blower doesnt rely on exhaust mass flow, the only gain would be the general gain of vtc on/off just like on an NA setup, except multiplied since its on boost. wouldnt be multiplied like a turbo cause it makes that amount of boost there anyway, but multiplied none-the-less
