You can never have too much power, just not enough traction. 11.867 @ 119.35
what all comes with the kit to make that much HP? I am not really familiar with it except that I have read that it makes alot of WHP with relatively low boost levels to keep the engine running safe.

I think max was 7-9 PSI. I'm not really 100% sure though, so don't quote me on this. It was the stock tune that came with the kit. It was slightly modified by Edelbrock for JDM on the temperature activation.
However JDM did say they can tune this kit

Complete package includes supercharger/intake assembly, air inlet with 85mm throttle body, fuel injectors, air-to-water intercooler, spark plugs, flash tuner with proper calibration.

I like the 350 #'s of torque just beyond 2k, that should = some burning rubber, for goodness sakes tell us how driving the car is!!!?!?!?
was this the tune that came with the supercharger kit, or a custom tune, there was a member here that had tune issues, has this been resolved??
what would those guys charge for just the SC install, do you know??
The driving is great, its what I hoped for and more! I do have some trackion issues in first - but its very slight. When the boost kicks in my car is like a bat out of hell, and the SC whine is silent for the most part
This tune was one the one that came with the SC except for a the cooling modification that was done for JDM by Edelbrock.
The charge for the install was around 10 hours. So around ~$1000 for the install.

I'm hard pressed to believe JDM didn't do anything to increase the power. You're roughly 40bhp above what Edelbrock advertises and also what other stock kit people have shown.
I'm not complaining. Just keeping a keen eye on what the stock kit does...BECAUSE I WANT ONE. And I'll have one - if there's a shop around here (doubtful) with Ebrock experience when my purchase/decision date arrives

Well, they would and they could. However this all goes back to the warranty thing and etc. Sr did say there are a bunch of things he can do with this kit. However he uses SCT, not DiabloSport so thats one issue and thats why the tunes need to be modified by Edelbrock first.
They have there version of the competition kit which I may go with which includes the pump, intake, pulley, and different MAF. Also, they will use a SCT tuner instead.

the standard deal, I think is with 5#'s boost?? his was upped to 7psi, what made you choose this kit over say the saleen kit?? they are about the same price, with about the same power, 425 RWHP seems to be the right number for these cars and both kits make about the same power, which one is better
