which Eaton blower is being used in the EE kit? is it the M90 or the M62? because i was looking over the Eaton site, and apparently both of them will work with our motors. and has anyone been able to use a smaller pulley than the 2.80"? i like the roots-type look better than centrifugal blowers ora turbo, but when i do get boosted, i dont want to drop almost 4 grand for something ill be changing out later for more power. i like the 6 and want to stick with it. thats not a question. i just wanna figure out how much boost can be pushed out of that blower and what my HP #'s will max out at. I have seen different blowers have pulleys as small as 2.50" and im wondering why i havent heard of anything like this for the X-Charger. if anyone can answer any of my ?'s it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I have one of the X-Chargers that's been running in the real world the longest (S/N 004) and am as happy with it now as the day it was installed (which is to say VERY happy). Did the install myself in about 7 hours, and it's functioned perfectly since.
If anyone considering getting in on the current group buy is in the MA/NH/RI area, I'd be glad to try an arrange a look see and a ride for them if they want to check out an X-Charger carin person. I also get down to CT once or twice a month for car club stuff in good weather.

where did you get the pulley from and what kind of dyno numbers are you running?

Hey sniper,
I will take you up on your offer of checking out your car. I just put in an order for the next group buy of the x charger and would like to see and experience it. I live in central IL and would be willing to make the trip
