the basic super charge is around 200kw, and the other one 270kw. are these at the fly?

$US4400 ($AU5865) for the kit alone. Package weight is 25kg so shipping won't be cheap.Quote:

Add dyno time, add fitting of the kit and there you have your $10k or close to it.
The traction control will detect any handling problems and compensate, i.e. cut power to the engine around sharp corners etc..Quote:

I'd take something like that over a mazda 6 mps aswell :P
$10,000.... so want it on my euro....but so expensive... :( anyone wanna buy it for my bday?
I'll buy it for your b'day, but it's going on MY car!!! :cool:Quote:

Not that expensive. Add taxes and labour and it doesn't come close to 10k. If someone is going to pay that sort of money you may as well buy a stand alone ECU like the Euro1 -and still have change left over.Quote:

It is not really a "need" though for a street car. You still travel at the same speeds - although some might choose to accelerate faster... :pQuote:
