I have a C43 that I am not at all happy with, but I am stuck with it. So, I was wondering what I could do to get some more power without spending a fortune. The Brabus motor is absurdly priced ($30K???!!!) and the Stillen blower is pretty spendy at $18K (esp. given the total parts cost to them is probably $3K). So, what are the options, besides N2O? Should I just fabricate a Paxton or Vortech based blower system? I just want another 80-100 hp or so.

You HAVE to use the Kleeman kit!

They make a supercharger that fits in the V and is based on the Autorotor. It is water to air intercooled as well! You have to get the kit installed at an authorized Kleeman dealer.

I am in the process of looking for a donor car and an owner that is willing to invest in this kit. I will do all of the work for 1/2 labor to get this off of the ground.

We are located in Atlanta GA.

so.........where do I get information on this thing?

- which Autorotor (Whipple?)?
- how much boost?
- how much hp gained?
- engine management?
- does it require modifications to the intake manifold?
- is it intercooled?
- how many have been installed?

Check out kleeman for some of your answers. Also, there are several Kleeman distributors in the US. I am attempting to go into that market, but with limited funding, it is difficult.
