there is another company which makes a full m112 kit but it costs more so I dont think it would be worth it. Here is a link for anyone intersted.

Stanggang is Unfortunately 100% correct with the "Heaton" term. The heat soak is the #1 issue with these blowers as you push them past their efficiency range with a pully. One positive aspect to this kit is that if it doesn't come with a heat exchanger, you don't have to upgrade, since you wouldn't have one to begin with, you can buy an afco or similar unit to begin with...I agree though, that if you don't find bargain deals on most of the parts, the kit starts to add up for what it is. I think this kit is really the best option for someone with a stock block looking for around 350-400rwhp, as it could be done cheaper than any other. If max boost is what your after, there are FAR better options out there. Even with ported heads and cams, this blower would probably max out around 500rwhp. With this being relatively new to the market, the only way we will really know how well or poorly this setup will work is for people to try it. The only real question a potential buyer has to ask himself is what the ultimate goal is. If 400rwhp is enough, and you want tokeep costs down while having strong low end torquethen this may be the blower for you. If the goal is to one day have a built block, then there are a lot better blowers for that.

I know that they have heat problems, but that is not a big concern of mine because I am a boost ***** and would probablly only run 6 psi

I think they start to built a lot of excess heat at around 12-14 psi

That kit shows 6-11 psi. Is that just because it has the stock pulley on it? Could you put a smaller pulley on it and run higher than 11 psi?

I'm not sure, the cobra's run 8 psi stock and with I think with the smallest pulley they can run makes like 16-17 psi. So i assume the m112 could force that much pressure into a GT but it would be REALLY in-efficent and you would need a built motor to run anywhere near that much boost.
