Daaaaaaaamn Hymee. That bad boy is sweeeet! For awhile there I started to consider other options with more low-end grunt for my next car, but this cured me of that. That awesome dry rotary sound together with the whine of the supercharger...

Please shoot me a PM with the estimated cost of your kit so I can start puddling funds to my savings account... I have a AT, but as long as I have the base map for the 6 port on the Motec to start off with It shouldn't be any problem to tune since I have a M4 running my N/A ITB 20B FC...

sounds just like the KB blowers on the 03/04 Cobra's, i love it... Was going to go turbo on my 8 eventually but with it being a low torque car this SC seems to be the only option. Cant wait till the bugs are worked out and a package is available.

I managed some time to encode some more video of the dyno. These where taken at the first dyno session, on the Tuesday before the Nationals.
The first just shows Wildcards ride on the rollers. You can see the instant torque come on when the throttle is opened up, and the ole girl starts to climb the rollers.
Turning a wheel on the dyno
This next one is a good sequence I got showing how the boost comes on instantly with this combo. No Lag! Note: We had a bit of belt slip here. But fair go, 'twas only the first time on the rollers!
2500RPM, Instant Boost
You can see in the first bit it is sitting at 2500RPM, with hardly any load (boost gauge is in vacuum). Then you can here the throttle open up, and the dyno apply full load and let it ramp up. Up in the RPM you see the boost bleed off due to the belt slippage. Belt slippage in this instance was due to not enough tension, but I picked this shot as it showed the boost gauge pretty well!
Enjoy! I have lots more like this to come yet. Just don't put down a deposit for another kit just yet.
BTW - We are already taking orders from some keen as mustard boost jockeys. Or should I say torque jockeys! :D 
Cheers,
Hymee.

HOLY CRAP! Sounds incredible!
Hymee, can you give us more info on the different options you will be offering, like ecu, boost, cooling, exhaust etc. And will the left hand drive be available at the same time as the right?
