Vortech sells a complete kit. Depending on where you get it, it goes from
around $3200 to over $4000. The kit will get you right around 8 PSI which is
safe for the motor and doesn't exceed the max blower speed. You also get a
three year warrantee. If you change the pulley like I did, it voids the
warrantee and gives you a few more pounds of boost. If you go this route,
remember at these boost levels, you have a much better chance of blowing head
gaskets. So far I have added water injection when I turned the boost up and
I am still on the factory gaskets. Check out Vortech's (and Paxton,
Powerdyne, and any others you can find) website. It is a big investment and
you should get all the info you can before you buy anything.
I had tried to put a group buy together for these when I got mine, but there
was not enough interest. I can put you in touch with the guy I got mine from
and you will probably get a good deal.
Good luck,
Wayne
