Have you ever tried putting a vacuum gauge on there to see how bad it is?

I have confused things a bit:
In the regular kit it isnt the filters per say that are the bottle neck, its the intake track. In order to get a boot on the sc, since it is placed so close to the rad shroud, they put a restrictive boot on it that has about an inch of clearance from the blades.
In going from that boot to the direct filter I use in my kit (Air to Air) then it opens up the sc to breath better. However, the supercharger would LOVE a bigger filter than the one I provide but there just isnt the room to do it.
This is why I am looking at building a whole new setup using the V3. Its capable of 600. The stillen bracket placement of the unit is not. Well, unless you want to run without a filter.
I have dyno sheets of my setup with the filter on then with it off. Back to back runs. Ill post them up when i get home to take pics of them.
