today i got to play with the car a bit. It did ok, for me going so cheep on it. but so far so good. Its not the fastest car in the world but it's 10 times better then before , and if i had put $1000 to $2000 into it i would be mad but for $400 im happy.

Too much music, to little SC whine, edit the music out and pat yourself on the back

Looks like it pulls pretty hard, but you gotta lose the wing man and paint the car... However, good job on the SC, and fyi your gas door swings open @ 0:42 or so in the video. Yea...and how about making a no music version of the video?

That sounds incredibly awesome, but I do agree, at some parts it looks to be a little sped up.

What did you do for fuel......tuning?

That's a weird s/c sound... I guess I am just use to Lightnings and Cobras...lol

Pretty cool though... I got a single slammer still and wouldn't mind having a little bit more pep on the cheap.

Damn it, I'm going to have to sell my s14 to get a s13 that way I can afford to play with it. Looks good, did you have to eliminate anything? Will the hood still fit?

I'm jealous.

why does it sound like a helicopter or whatever? do all supercharged cars sound like that? an what kind of ECU are you using? so many questions here.....

also looks like the "piping" is all PVC pipe... i guess that explains the low price.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4D3iwStv72U

i have done nothing but hook it up, other then that its stock, well as far as i know i just got this motor and put it in a few weeks ago. i did see that the motor had great power before the s/c so the guy who had it before me could have did some stuff to it,but i don't know

i well be taking it all apart in the next week to do the exhaust, ill take some pic's of the set up as a take it apart to show how i did it all. thanks

and since no one likes the paint all ask my local sponsor if we car paint it again
