I can't believe no one has mentioned that his supercharger isn't designed for snap your beck torque like a pos displacement one... It probably would feel slow in hot weather as well. It's Friday, tuner nite at most strips. Go drag it!!

Well....even without the instant "grunt" that a roots/twin screw blower gives, my '05 with the Novi 1200 still "feels" pretty fast to me (until it shifts into 4th and dies, that is. LOL).

I would think that either:
A. Something is wrong with his car.
B. He has other, faster cars and this one feels slow to him.

Only one way to find out what the deal is- take it to the track!

I understand that powerdyne does suck. I am used to prochargers But I figure If Im putting those kind of numbers out on a dyno that no matter what kind of blower it is 400hp is 400hp isnt it. Heat soak shouldnt be a problem as it was in the 90s when the car pulled those numbers. Around here test and tune night is on Wednesdays. I have a sct livewire that you can do a quarter mile on are those things accurate or no. Anyone live in the Indiana area would be more then happy to take you for a ride to see what you think. Just want a decently quick street car to take some ricers down with. Thanks
