No experience with it. Oscar never uses it. No real benefit over the C30-74.

I know I sub'd this thread for a reason!

Emilio: Assuming I'm running a stand-alone and bigger injectors, what else is required to go from the no-management C30-74 165whp kit you sell on your site, to something like 200-225whp? Just a pulley, restrictor & re-tune? At what point is an intercooler required with a rotrex?

I've seen the dyno sheet you have posted on your site for the 01 w/-74 base kit, any chance you have one that includes MAP data?

My car is a do-it-all machine right now (DD, AX, HPDE) and I'm wondering what the long term effects on the blower longevity would be from my 15 min one-way twice daily commute. I've read that these units are really picky about there internal oil temp. Any comments?

Thanks!

Your questions are too generalized for concise answers.
To simplify, figure out an I/C, ECU and take it to a dyno.

No other dynos.
The Rotrex is about as bombproof a blower as you'll find. They're picky about oil temp just like your engine is. IOW, run it it dry and it will blow up eventually.

Thanks Emilio for the response. My 2000 is running a BP5A cam, square-top and an 01 header on a factory ecu. Will the 'SuperCard' be able to hang with that? Wideband will be installed to keep an eye on things regardless. The plan was to go simple with the non-intercooled "165" to start, and move up in the future once I go MS2. Obviously a restrictor change will be in order, but no change in pulley? Damn the rotrex is cool, I spent WAY too much time reading about roots systems.

Also, thanks for answering sc q's for n00bs on a turbo forum. I'll probably give you a call next week to place an order.

Default Supercard = stock engine

I keep getting asked this same question so I'll try to make it clear as possible here:

The Supercard that comes with the Kraftwerks base kits only works with 100% stock engines (zero modifications). Modify anything and you need to research and ECU solution and bigger injectors.

Understood. Thanks again!
