WOAH Haven't been in the forum regularly it looks like this will actually happen. An actual finished project who would have thought. One question though, who will whine louder my wife when I tell her I want one or the supercharger?

.....seriously though did you guys make this one of those quiet blowers and what about the clutch is it gonna have one. I hope it's quiet fingers crossed.

These projects always start out like gangbusters.... Then fizzle out as the days and weeks pass.

If I had 10HP for every super-hyped vendor project that went nowhere, my car would be running 9's.


I hope that someday a vendor actually delivers a huge-HP solution instead of just posting pretty pictures and making provocative claims.

To your other questions it would be a huge surprise if this solution utilized a clutch-type pulley and/or ran quietly. It seems that a lot of guys here want as much noise as possible from the blower so it's more likely to be a screaming banshee than a stock-sounding power adder.... It will drown-out all but the loudest nagging wives!

The whine can be muffle thru a good intake system. If you don't believe me drive around with your intake y pipe off. The stock sc can whine with the best of them.

That's crazy, because I wan this baby to be whining and crying like it just got the beating of it's life!

Yh I remember HadiLaw's intake which whined really loud and high pitched. It's inevitable thought hat with a larger SC the whine will be louder too.

Wow! Very nice progress and I glad you have not forgotten the v12 lol!

Would you please share some update with us?

Speeddriven must be related to the Slowskys

I mean, they have the fast part figured out with doing a 2.9 Whipple kit, it is just the getting to the finished product part that is a drag.

e500slr

Nah Speeddriven will come through on this maybe they're just doing some more testing and a few things here and there. It would be hilarious if this falls through though, it would pretty much PROVE there is a curse on our engine. The M113-55k is a CURSED ENGINE!!! Or maybe it's a government conspiracy, they don't want us to have this much power and torque which would render them redundant because once that blower sits on that beast, ALL HELL WILL BREAK LOOOOSE!!!

That's exactly it. The government is afraid of the extra power produced by the 55K engines that could disrupt the rotation of the earth. This could shorten the calendar year by days or weeks and affect tax revenue.

I doubt they have a running example yet......Back when this started they said oh maybe 4 weeks, I could tell then it would be more like 4 months, and i'm not talking crap because I know how long it takes to develop and prove a new product. I have no doubt it will pull through just every little thing takes time.

Updates?

Triman2008

In for updates....when that will be.

AKnight55

Should be interesting with the Weistec system out now

Shifter

Bump for news!

Triman2008

I wonder what kind of numbers the Weistec system put out on the M113K engines.........The 63 looked impressive.

Don't want to leave you guys hanging! We are in the process of doing some upgrades to our CNC to reduce the production time. Just waiting for some parts to come in. Be sure to look for new updates to the kits soon!

It has been announced as being ready but has anyone on here heard or seen anyone with the actual blower in their garage or in their cars? I think they just announced it being ready before it actually is. Where are their dyno graphs? hp numbers? boost level? hmmmmmmmmmm
I have heard nothing but good things about speedriven and they have done amazing things with the V12 cars and I expect no less with this new blower set up. I have a 2.6H Kenne Bell on my 03 Cobra which is only a 4.6 and on a stock bottom end it makes well over 600 rwhp. I see many guys one here making well over 700 rwhp and guys like steve touching the 1K rwhp mark on race gas with a built motor. I am very excited to say the least!

e55amgrocket

Can't wait to see what comes out. Weistec obviously "released" the blower without even having any ready to ship out. I'm confident with a whipple on race gas 1000hp is possible and that what I'm shooting for.

Triman2008

Update yet??? What was done to the CNC? Any time line available yet? ANY THING!!!!!?????

downshift

Do we have for sure pricing yet? As a Chicago resident in the market for an E55, we might be meeting soon

urbamworm

Pricing? Hell they need a product before you can have pricing lol

downshift

Haha, very true. I was just wondering what the targets were now that they are closer. 6k sounds awesome for stage one, but I am curious how that changes going into stage 2 and 3

GregMB

......and in other news, Apple just announced their new iPhone6 on MBWorld and posted some teaser shots.


Then promptly disappeared for 6 months without a single additional update.
