Looking into power adders to install during engine rebuild at 200k miles. Came across this and wanted to share.

Here's a vid of their test E39 M62 4.4...

Wow.

I'd say a full rebuild would be step one seeing as most of our engines are already at least time wise old.

Added to watch list although the odds of my getting one are up there with me conceiving.

lol

The Vortec still gets my vote, this looks like an option, but Id like somebody in the states to get into the specifics of mapping / software etc. If its creating $1500 in headaches id rather get the kit thats already time tested.

Who wants to be the guinea pig?

When it comes to centrifugal vs positive displacement roots style, positive displacement wins every time.

Centrifugal supercharging vs Positive Displacment superchargers

The positive displacement blowers provides FULL boost thru the RPM range, centrifugal blowers only reach full boost at redline. This makes for a HUGE difference in acceleration!

If nobody is moving on this I might be the first.
