Anyone with the newer Weistec SC on M113K?

There was a group buy on this forum for the M113K Weistec supercharger back in Feb/March of this year, and I'm interested in feedback from those who bought and installed it. How was the supplied Weistec tune? Cruising IATs? WOT IATs? 1/4-mile times?

Unless I'm misunderstanding, their new kit has a better design and more efficient blower than their older kit, and I'm wondering if people are seeing the benefits of this. The Weistec E55 threads from several years ago had pretty disappointing feedback and results in them.

Probably the best way to see any improvements in the updated rotor design is to check the SVT forums. They're probably the biggest pool of users.

The issue with IATs is not in the rotor. There will be no effect on it new blower or old.

Well that's sad to hear. I also read an off-handed comment in one of those other Weistec threads about how they revised the intercooler to sit a bit higher up off the block, but I don't know if that's true. Based on the handful of posts from 2-3 years ago from people who owned one and the times on dragtimes, it seems like the gains from the Weistec blower were almost negligible over a pullied down stock blower, mod for mod. Was hoping that changed.
