Looking forward to your results. Who is your tuner?
Feeling better so what do? Go tree planting reserved 7500 trees we put 800 in today!

I'm waiting for my order from Mighty Mouse. His under blower device removing the blower from oil track. Doing both cars. Then the blower gets done and to the tuner.

Just to confirm, the reason the 2300 is cheaper for the Z06 is because you need to source your own tune?

Ok blower is on and I'm finishing up in the morning!
Went pretty good this is a nice kit! Mighty Mouse kit is installed saying good bye to dirty exhaust tips and oil in the blower and the valves got a clean up as well.
5 pounds off the engine once you pull the foam insert under the stock blower.

Appearance wise, it would pass as OEM.

The instructions were great and I just took my time. Still have a few hours left then I'll be going in for a tune. Hardest part is the two rear blower bolts one on each side they are a bitch and took more than an hour EACH. I like they went black instead of gray. If this thing makes 680 rwhp or better on 92 pump gas. I'll be ordering one for the other car. Only need about 45 rwhp more it should do that.
Goes on in a weekend.

what pulley's setup? With a 15% lower, it should be well over 7**WHP!!
I know why you're saying at least 680WHP seenwhat you are doing there

Do you anticipate the need for extra fuel with the increase in airflow with 2300?

Fuel hopefully will be good for 680 rwhp! Find out when we tune it!

Looks good, our expansion tank would be perfect to compliment it too. Oem quick connect fittings, lines up with the heartbeat, and has mount provisions for a mighty mouse can.

She is running! Two issues one the Halltech intake is too short.
The Throttle body sits about a half inch to the right.
Second is reduced power car would not move just idles so I'll have it towed to take to the tuner. Next week.

Just thinking outside of the box, might consider cutting the intake tube after the MAF area and adding a rubber couple to get the length you need.

I like the fact that this supercharger looks OEM.

Not sure but it has done it in the past before the new blower. Just leave it for a bit and it is fine. I'll talk my tuner about fixing it.
Hope I can get it in early this week for the tune. Really like it so far!

Great thing is the exhaust tips, intake valves and blower and blower intercooler should stay clean no more oiling. Doing the other car real soon as well!
