There is a new type of bearing superchareger (rotrex maybe) instead of gears and it has seen efficiency of up to 80% and higher.

Just thought Id throw that in.

Im am very interxted in yalls progress as I am about to buy a ZR1 and owuld like to run extremely low boost ~3.5 to 4 psi until I get some low comp pistons and then maybe crank it up to around 8. Im still kinda new to these motors though so that plan may change.

What time do you guys plan on having these on sale

Thanks for your comments. The problem with a supercharger for the ZR-1 is very much the same, if not more so, than front mounted turbos....installation. To the best of my knowledge, no one has yet supercharged an LT5. It comes back to practicality, bang for the buck. The incremental gain realized in supercharging can be had for less money with normal aspirated mods.

Release for sale plans are: just as soon as we can. I know that's not much of an answer, but it's all we have at the moment. The LT1 & LT5 cars were to have been done last Dec and are now slated for completion next week. Tuning, testing, manufacturing of tubing components (which involves removal of the prototype systems, sending tubes out for CAD tracing & mfg quotes from different suppliers to get the best product at the best price, installing the new pieces to insure accuracy of fit, all before authorizing a run of parts) kit inventory, testing of the finished kit for installation & fit all have to occur before it goes out the door. Our top priority is a kit that is complete, installs and fits correctly, functions as advertised and looks great. It takes time to do it right. We're reluctant to comment on timing until we get closer because we don't want to lose credibility. It's already taken much longer than anticipated. A top quality product that functions as represented is our first & foremost objective.
