Longboard didn't make it to Willow because he couldn't drag himself from bed after we spent the night at the UFC76 at the Pond
We did do some logging with his car and the air temps were 7-11 degrees F over ambient with the stock intercooler. He will be going to the track in Nov to final testing unless we can find somewhere else to do it sooner.

Please let me know when the next track time is, I'd love to see and hear the fun.

No not yet... I won't go into that stage until the tuning is done

Silicone
.
I envision a PWR water to air barrel intercooler. All silicone from the Rotrex to the intercooler then all silicon from the intercooler to the intake manifold. With the lower heat temp produced by the Rotrex I think the small PWR 4" dia by 12" long model would work great. It could sit just behind the intake manifold in the direct path of the air coming threw the hood scoop aiding in the cooling.
This would give a real short, cool and smooth air path from the Rotrex to the intake manifold.

From what I see from your website you are just doing things that have been done already. Clutches, dif, and heads. This Rotrex thing is completely new, I'll give you that. But damn...5 MONTHS...wtf do you do all day?
*ACE* SHUT IT
the reason he has done stuff thats already been done is because he did it BETTER, and he is working on this all day the fact that he is sooo precise about his products
and he comments on it for our sake, cause we want to know how production is going, if you cant take it then dont read the thread

HA! Maybe when I see something conclusive I will change my mind...when will that be...April....
I am not going to rush something just to satisfy you
RMW isn't about rushing things to market and then having to make V.2 , 3 or 4
you are more than welcome to buy your own rotrex s/c and show me how it's done

Ok, *Ace*. You started posting in this thread today. So, where do you come in and start questioning this ground-breaking alternative supercharger kit and the time frame that it takes to devolope products? Have you ever done this much R&D, or this extensive. I think that you should be thanking Jan for taking this much time and caring that this product be the very best possible package for this type of unit. You will bite your tongue when this hits the market. Did someone say, "insert foot here(mouth)."
