      headunits go for a wide range of pricing, usually can be had for $600-1000 used or rebuilt.

            You're a terrible person for allowing me to see this. Oh the bad thoughts running through my head. Did you guys ever get the bird on a dyno to see what it put out with the powerdyne blower?

                  he decided to sell the car for a trans am before we had the chance to find out. I will say it felt like my car with the 75 shot on in though. so that was low 14s in the 1/4. Might have been a 13sec car but we will never know.

                  people with the powerdyne have done 13s in the quarter with ease though

                    I'm acctually happy I never did run it, I never would have had time to sell everything before prices crashed. about 2 weeks after I sold the car the values of the cars substancially dropped. I was acctually thinking yesterday about contacting the guy who bought my kit and see what his car runs with it. I did have 3.73s to compliment mine though. I will say upon riding in my car 0-100, and then taking my friends lt1 auto with boltons, mine felt slightly quicker. So whatever that meens? Its all speculation of course. Compared to my ls1 auto with boltons the v6 felt turtle slow though lol.

                      I've been swaying back and forth between forced induction for my 3800 or going with a v8 swap. I put a deposit down for mine yesterday. Needless to say, I'm a sucker for superchargers. Now to source a head unit while the group purchase fills up.

                          best bet is ebay. When we made the original kit I got my head unit for just over 800 freshly rebuilt. Be sure to get the Powerdyne BD11A Straight scroll. NOT the 90 degree scroll.

                            Are these set up for smooth or grove-side drive? I'm just about ready to put a deposit down. I might just have something up my sleeve to go along with this... high-boost pulleys anyone?
