Hello fellow aziners, just wanted to share the news that I finally installed my CT blower! I love it except for a belt squeal I can't seem to get rid of. Seems like it squeals when I start it up until it warms up. Then it will squeal every time I accelerate. Gonna have to figure it out. Also, I was surfing the net and found this article from the car driver comptech test drive back in 03. I read this back then but I just realized the hp/tq numbers and wanted to see if you all thought they are realistic.
"The $4495 supercharger system alone is worth 54 to 57 horsepower at the drive wheels, according to Comptech. But this particular car, built for display at the 2002 SEMA show last fall, also carries Comptech's headers and down pipes ($1249) and mufflers ($669) to produce a claimed 369 horsepower at 6800 rpm and 302 pound-feet of torque at 5400 rpm at the crank. Considering the modest boost, a 109-hp thump up in output bangs on the edge of credulity"
How accurate do you all think this is? The reason I ask is because I have all the same mods on mine except my exhaust is a greddy evo2 catback. I've got the icebox, headers, UR lightweight pulley, and mugen cooling mods. Those of you with similar mods can you chime in and let me know if this seems accurate? Thanks guys!
