Also is it just fitmen issue with this thing kinda like with the m90, and not fitting under the hood, because if thats the case why not fab the hood itself to help witht he fitment.... obviously not something corny but, something like a fabed cow induction like the sti set up...

Looking at $320-$350 for the snout / bypass / actuator assemblies.

That's about $1900 for the complete supercharger, then cost of adapter plate / throttle body setup. Should be able to be complete for under $2500!

Other lsj's have Twin Screws and they didn't need to buy 50 units but then again, they never post on these forums. What does that say about what the car actually does with the twin screw? I'm not giving any money to a stranger on a forum to "help". We already saw how good that worked with RAW. Prove the gains and I would be happy to buy one! I still havent seen the tvs as being worth 1800.

truth

all of it really

Going to begin work on a dimensionally correct representation of the W100AX to begin checking dimensions / fitment / etc this weekend.

I'll be following this one to see where it all goes. I'm interested to see what comes of it since I was pretty much one of a very few to have a twinscrew. Another hint is to find a bypass valve that has two vacuum lines like the stock M62 has. Then you can still use HPTuners to control boost in first gear which will help a lot!
