Thats coming soon. I need to buy and install a wideband and a safc. Should happen within two weeks. There are changes that are going to be made in design , so I'll have to dyno the production version as well.

As far as a price for the kit, I should know more soon. The first production model will be built and installed on my car before Nov 1st. I will base the price on the quality and performance of the production piece. I'm thinking about $35 per horsepower with everything you need included in the kit, maybe cheaper.
Dumb question.. but this includes the actual SC or no?

Sorry i'm not the smartest with mechanical stuff.. i just want it to go fast

I know where you can get a pillar and some really cool wideband and boost gauges to mount all that stuff in. PM me if you're interested.

Yes, it will be a complete kit with nothing more to buy.

Wow Chuck your skills demand true respect as with every other na cf owner I quite excited about this and if you can offer this a decent power increase to $ ratio than you will have a hit on your hands !

is there anyway to get any of the specs that you used to build the kit yourself from you?

Absolutely, remove your intake manifold and start measuring.

A small update. I removed the manifold yesterday and trimmed down the injector bungs and altered the fuel rail. Just put everytihng back together tonight. I'll see if it makes a difference tomorrow morning. I'll take the camcorder with me just in case. I should be getting a voltage clamp in the mail soon too. The clamp will replace my one way valves on the map sensor(no more boost leak). I'm working out a deal for a SAFC and may have that installed this weekend. So, the only thing left will be the wideband and I can hit the dyno after a little street tuning.

I hope the fuel mods will help with the fuel cut. Great job!

The mods on the bungs and fuel rail definately helped. Hammered on it a little today. It wants to get sideways even in second gear and before you even know it your going 65-70 mph. Unfortunately my voltage clamp is still not here. Got a great tip on where to dyno the car today from a guy at work.

I installed the voltage clamp this morning. It is far superior to those stupid one way valves. I filled my washer reservoir wiht methanol and water 50-50 and armed the system. I'm now pushing about 9.5-10 psi . Thats a huge increase. The only problem is its bogging rich. Can't wait to tune it!

HOLLY! I was pretty dang excited to hear about this w/ the lower amounts of pressure... I cant wait to see this thing fully tuned + on a dyno

Interesting...assuming that you get it tuned good you should be in the 350-360fwhp range...aproximately the same as an SRT6. I'd gather you'd have 300-310hp to the wheels. Would be a fun ride.

I thought the Eaton M90 was limited to around 300 crank horsepower. Maybe 290? I thought the M112 was the one that pushed out 400-500 crank hp.

This may possibly be the best thing that happened to our anemic little NA motor. I can see it now... "Dude your 350Z, I mean Sentra, got beat by a Crossfire that wasn't an SRT6?" LOL!!! Can't wait for a how to if you're going to make one available for us DIY'ers.

Well, that's assuming the current S/C can hold 10psi to redline. From what I have read he hasn't been able to do that yet due to fuel cut. We'll see but I think 300-310whp is a good bet of where he will be (again, as long as the S/C doesn't fall flat in the upper RPM's).

Mr. Norris,

I was curious if there is anyway I can run Propane instread of the methanol kit?
I'd rather go propane since I have all the parts, and there are no pumps require, it has great atomization and it's cheaper and much more readily available than methenol.

please advise if there is enough room or any possible way to get enough propane to flow into the manifold with just a NOS jet?

How many CC's will your meth kit be spraying?

I had coolingmist size the nozzle for 330 hp. I'll have to contact them to find out the flow. I'm sure you could work out a propane injection kit. What size tank are you going to use? I'm using a hobbs type adjustable pressure switch to activate the relay for my pump and I'm sure you could do the same for the propane minus the pump.
