I'm in awe of the dyno numbers. That far exceeds my expectations for a s/c kit, especially with regards to low rpm performance of the centrifugal design charger.

The part that I am confused about is how do they get more power from a smaller displacment engine than the VR38DETT with less boost and using a supercharger vs turbo? At 420 rwhp that is roughly 500 hp at engine with 8psi boost, where the VR38DETT is 480 hp with 10.5 psi boost.
