    OK how did I miss this? That is nice!!!

    Badass ride and a nice little do it yourself. Usually everything i do myself takes forever, you seem to be moving along super fast!! Maybe because i always have multiple project cars to split my money between.

    Most of this stuff wasn't voluntary work lol. The trans was messed up when I bought it. After fixing that I quickly realized anything but drag radials is completely dangerous. Soon as boost kicks in it'll kick sideways at anytime. So I was basically forced to get a new set of wheels and tires. Plus I want a decent E.T. lol.

    See you got the pic thing handled. Glad you got that taken care of. Sweet car as I've said before. I didn't know it was supercharged, I really like the setup, it's almost not noticeable under the hood it fits so well. Does the new one sit in the same way? It'll be noisy tho, so it'll lose its sleeper aspect, lol. As sleeper as that thing could be. I just did an ls1 engine replacement in a C5. Man these things are tight to work on, but everything went pretty smoothly. Looks like you did a really thorough, good job on the trans. Congrats!

    I've used other hosts to post pictures on here before. I had to click the check mark in the box and after I do that. The pop up asking for the URL keeps jumping all over the screen. I figured it out though. Appreciate the kind words. The old supercharger was pretty quiet. You could hear a slight whistle at idle. You could hear it sucking in air and dumping boost If I gave 1/4 or more throttle. The 2200r whistles pretty loud at isle. Even with the hood closed you're going to hear it. Reminds me of my old Vortech I had on my fox body years ago. It's going to be sucking in 450 more cfm than my old blower. I'd expect it to be a little louder lol.

    I love that the blower is bigger than the bumbo! Very cool. That is going to be one nasty street car.
