You guys and all your fancy boost....
Size comparison of the F1X compared to the 2200R/YSI. I couldn't capture the difference in pictures but the F1X looks so much bigger in person compared to the 2200r.

You can see the difference in them. That's gonna make some power!
When is this beast gonna make some noise?
I was driving it last weekend. Going in the chassis shop in two weeks for 6" thick intercooler, 4" inlet and outlet and tubular bumper support.
Little man has been wanting to go for a ride. I took him for his first ride last weekend.

Hold on to your lug nuts! Lol
Still a couple weeks away before the chassis shop can work on my car so I decided to polish my blower.

I also ordered a Dallas Performance f1x 10 rib billet bracket and their 4.5" big mouth filter. I'll need a 2" cut down radiator for it to fit. Only problem is I don't want to spend $1,000 on a new radiator and fan setup. While I'm waiting for my parts to arrive. I decided to lower my radiator myself. I took out the radiator support. Cut off the brackets and lowered them approximately 1 1/4" down and 3/8" forward. I also have ECS radiator support 1" spacers. I also trimmed the rubber bushings 5/16". After finishing I can't believe how much it lowered the radiator.

After I took this picture I grinded the bushing down to make it level.

With more adjusting I believe I can drop it down another 1/2".

You can see where the top bracket use to be. Im definitely at least 2 1/2" lower.

Looks like you made plenty of room for it. I was wondering if you was going back to a 10 rib set up. Almost have too to prevent belt slip.
The stock 8 rib looks thin compared to the 10 rib on the old blower.
Probably pretty tight on real estate under there aren't ya?
My 10 rib balancer is 1/8" away from my steering rack. I don't know how they get a 12 rib to fit.
ve been waiting 3 weeks for my supercharger bracket. It was suppose to be delivered today. I came into work today even though I could of had the day off just to get the bracket. Open the box and half of it is missing. This is probably the 10th time this has happened. From different vendors. Its going to be over a month before I get to mount my head unit.
She's here. Dallas performance f1x bracket. Definitely worth the wait.
