Default Re: R170 SLK Supercharge Inv. Parts

Hi Dan:
It appears from the information I recieved that the hp is the same with 15 lbs. boost with the SRT-6 supercharger or with the K 's 7 lbs. boost. It's just that with the SRT-6 SC you need to change engine internals, the ECU and wiring harness. With the K unit you leave those items as the boost of 7lbs. matches up with the stock compression of our Xfires.
I think that Bobafettm has some good contacts and/or good hands on experience that are going to save him the expensive mods that I would have to pay someone to do. He is going to let us know how it works out.
As far as warranty goes, that is a big issue. By the time most of our warranties are up, I suspect we will see more avilability of performance parts and who knows, maybe from DC with warranties.....?
