I wasn't calling the Herrod/Yella Terra blower a joke, just mucking around Like i said everyone has their own needs so to me the overall value/performance of a Herrod kit doesn't suit me, but for someone that's after something you can barely notice and a bit more grunt it's perfect.
Kyle, if you're serious about this and not a day dreamer, try and see if any of these places have a customers car close to you (or if they are close by) and organise a test drive so you can see which kit suits you best. It's all good for us to try help and offer suggestions and tell you which one we prefer, but at the end of the day you're the one that has to be happy not us. Have you done any research into the charger kits or rung around to see what everyone has to offer? |

Hahaha yes he did But bear in mind that his car has had a hard life from day one and the only reason he dropped a valve was because he put a biiiiit too much NOS to compensate for the weight of a passenger and the rest is history But with the punishment Chris has given this thing it's done good to last, it was only a matter of time before something went wrong. From memory he has been running about 640rwkw (could be wrong but i think it was something like that) with a shot of nos on a stock engine, and has also been running 12 psi tunes too  |

Can't tell you for sure what the figures are for his race tune without gas, but he generally has a 400rwkw tune in it for every day and it has a f**k load of power! For instance, 160km put your foot down and your sideways, and the noise of the blower is f**k horn  |

Damn straight, especially in the hands of a good tuner. There are some pretty average tuners out there from well known places who could do with a bit more training  |

A centrifugal comes in a kit, should all be there right down to the flash tune. Brackets, pullies, intake piping, intercooler ( if buy ic kit) with mounts flash tune and every nut bolt and clamp, injectors, fuel reg.

| Jump on fordforums and check out Bluepower in the site sponsors section, there's a heap of info on them in there and also give Chris a call for any other details you wanna know. He'll be able to tell you the differences between the different kits too |

| Mate i have a centrifugal supercharger on my BA 6 and am stoked with it but if i had that motor of yours under the hood i'd definitely go a positive displacement blower and some serious brakes. |
