I like it alot, went with it b/c of no oil tapping and price. paid $3300 in polished with injectors, sct2, fuel pump. Got it installed for only $400 too. Thought that was great price. The only thing is you cannot up grade to after or inter cooled later if you want more hp. But 400 is enough for me!

I did some research on this when I was thinking about installing one on my sixxer. I could not find one single person that had one installed on either a 6 or 8! I emailed them and asked for a copy of the instructions so I could review them, they were the most poorly written instructions I've ever seen. They are dismal compared to the Procharger and Vortech instructions. It probably doesn't matter if you're going to have someone install it, but I wasn't about to do it myself based on those lousy instrux.

That's smart thinking Tres! I never thought of asking for install instructions prior to purchasing something. Good one to remember.

My tech had no problems at all with the install instructions, except a missing belt. It did not come with the colder plugs, but I have since ordered them and will be installing them. I got it from Jack at Musclemotors in Ca, you can find them on ebay.

You can call powerdyne directly and talk to Scott, he might sell you one directly from them. The other guy there would not, but I ended up getting it from Muscle Motors cuz he gave me polished for satin price, they are actually the guys who tuned it for powerdyne.

so do you guys like this kit overall? i mean since our cars really arnt supposed to push over 450rwhp anyways wouldnt this be getting close with a custom tune and headers and such?
