Currently sold out I think. I emailed them asking when they were importing more. It's a S-trim knockoff.

Re: Torqstorm
I have not seen one with the gearbox since June, and they were going for around $1100.
Considering the specs, it should support 800hp.

Re: Torqstorm
All three of us are going supercharger, that is freaking hilarious...
So tired of dealing with exhaust temp issues, and I want my air conditioning back in too, thank gawd I didn't sell it, almost did. It's just a cleaner setup for our cars having a blower. Cam swap is a must for a blower, way too much overlap with the one I am running now. Was thinking about a Weiand roots charger too, but with welding in some injector bungs and custom rails, while running an elbow and LS1 throttle body. But, it's just way easier to go with a centrifugal blower though with what I already have...
