Damn it, I'm at work.
Is the Z standing still in the videos or rolling down the street or something like that?
I don't wanna d/l it if it's just standing at idle or revving cause I've seen vids of that before.
I want to see a SC Z in action!
Congrats btw.

Exhaust temp runs around 500-600 C most of the time.
The belt squeal usually goes away after it warms up.
It is loud but it is VERY fast.
See my other thread (Dr Bonz Procharger Experience) for the dyno graph. 350 RWHP and 284 ft-lbs torque, dynoed at 94 degrees and about 80-90% humidity. Mike says that translates out to maybe 355-360 RWHP. SOmeone also posted that Altered Atmosphere's AWD dyno tends to dyno low.
The video has my dyno pull, some stand still idle, and me zooming past the still camera. So it has a little bit of everything.

I thought somone was sawing wood with a radial saw. Sure you put in the supercharger oil. Hmmm, mine should be done this week, but yours sounded louder than I would have thought. Maybe my speakers need adjusting. I love the sound of a supercharger. It seemes to sound better with the hood down..
I can't wait for mine to be done. Had a few problems with ATI and the blower had to be sent back because of bad casting job.
Congrats

WOW! 
Bonz.. that's impressive! And I'll tell you why in comment #3 below. Here's what I noticed (or didn't)..
1 - Am I on crack? I didn't notice any "squeel" on engine start. Maybe the vacuum cleaner noise is just covering it up.
2 - It does seem VERY loud... even inside the car.
3 - Some may look at these videos and think that it really isn't an inpressive display of the power put out by the ATI. Here's what I noticed tho... I've had my car dynoed on two different occasions... I was right there when the dynos where done.... and I have a pretty good recollection of how long it took them to wind the car up to redline in 5th to get the readings. If you've had a dyno, you probably know where I'm going. In the video of Bonz dyno, the windup to redline happens in a substantially shorter period of time... maybe as little as half the time! WOW!
Great videos, Bonz! Can't wait to see some of the car in action. How about a video from behind so we can see/hear you accelerating away... and while you're at it, throw a Cobra Mustang of Vette beside you for reference!

I'm still downloading the vids.
Keep us updated!
ECU + FI will be my final stage of upgrades. I'm doing "all motor" upgrades first, then the ECU tune will help with the FI in the future. So for now... it's gonna suck driving without tuned ECU.
So is this noise typical of ATI super chargers? When I think about the noise, I picture some sort of friction that's causing that noise... so I'm questioning about durability.
I'm interested in the Procharger as well, but the cool sound makes me a little nervous.

My wife and kids do this thing now whenever I come home they all look up into the sky as if they are searching for something. When I asked what the heck they were doing they said that they thought a low flying plane had just gone over the house but they couldn't see it!
Yeah, yeah. REAL funny!

Awesome Bonz! First vid I've seen in action.
Sounds like a jet, you're wife and kids may be on to somethin'
But it's a Jet Engine that I WANT IN MY CAR!!
And you can see the blinding Zaino reflection too.
I should be in the club my December or so.
This was a mod so you can get to the emergency room faster isn't it?
