Re: Carroll Supercharger !!!!! (TomC5)
Jeff is a great guy He did my Carroll kit! The one reason i didn't buy his kit
was one because of looks and didn't want to relocate everything.
Two I didn't have an extra $3000 for that system! Jeff's kit actually
came from a company called SVI if you remember them. There kit ran
7.5 psi and they went out of business. Jeff just refined there kit and did
a great job. Jeff's kit with long tube headers did 436 hp. I ran 410 no
headers less boost and no intercooler. But both system are great!!!!!!!!!
It's just a perference on looks and money. :smash: :eek: :D

Re: Carroll Supercharger !!!!! (viper8789)
I would not do business with carroll supercharging. I ordered a set of rear gears from them, paid for them in full and after tree months of constant calling and never getting a call back finially told them to return my money or hear from my lawyer. Got my gears elsewhere. Anyone can sell you parts customer servie separates the great businessmen from the wannabees.

Re: Carroll Supercharger !!!!! (viper8789)
Just a little point about some info that was said. I owned an SVI kit from Geoff and it was only 6lbs boost and it dynoed 445 RWHP. No headers. They were not 7.5 lbs.

Re: Carroll Supercharger !!!!! (viper8789)
I remember last year a co-worker of mine (supplier to Caroll) showed me a letter they sent him apologizing to him that they couldnt pay his bills. He supplied parts to the kit. I wont say what, but... they attributed it to lack of
business. They also pleaded not to sue, as they were hurting as it was.
I looked into them b4 that. I will NEVER buy anything from them after reading that letter.

Re: Carroll Supercharger !!!!! (viper8789)
I talk to carroll the other day and got him no problem!
I don't care where anybody buys products or who does the installs.
You can't make everybody happy, people complain about lingenfelter, carroll,
west coast corvette, vette doctors, mti etc. Sometimes you have a good
experience, sometimes you don't. Plus everybody thinks there car is the best.
And for that other guy, Geoff's kit is at least 6.5 to 7psi I found the sheet that
he gave out at the corvette show at Mc Cormick place you want me to mail it to you!!!!!!! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Re: Carroll Supercharger !!!!! (Jimmy O)
Jimmy, Now your down to 6.5 from your absolutly sure 7.5 psi you are speculating. I owned his kit it was 6 lbs! Go to his web site he has a dyno sheet for one of his kits that pulled 445 rwhp at 6 psi. He has a new kit that goes 10 PSI. Jimmy, sometimes, you just have to admit when your wrong. READ MY TYPING, I OWNED A SUPERCHARGED KIT FROM GEOFF, IT WAS 6 PSI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
