Post in the "Mountain-Prairie" section and you will find several people here that have dealt with Dragon. They are a very well know Corvette shop here in Colorado.

I don't like the sound it makes... Too loud and the filter goes in a strange spot... Aside from that, it's cool idea.

That design was never released as far as I know. They are now releasing the new design....basically the same blower but it is a top mount just like the maggies and KB. They also fit under the stock hood. They are made by Whipple superchargers. All of the guys who were having problems with their Kenne Bell blowers on their mustangs and Lightnings switched over to the Whipple's and have never looked back. They make some of the best twin screw blowers out.

The ones that Dragon will be realeasing within the next month or so are 3.3L for the regular kit and 4.0L for the bigger unit. And like I said the 3.3L fits under the stock hood and makes sick power. They also have a custom designed labrynth intercooler that is supposed to be an awesome design. I am pretty sure that I will be going with one of the Dragon superchargers if everything goes as planned. These things are awesome. And you cant go wrong with Whipple and it fits under the stock hood.

I say we all take a shot for every time longrodlx says "fits under the stock hood". J/K... But seriously, where's the Patron?
