Re: A large supercharger isn't needed.
The 2300AX is big enough for the S8 too. It's only spun to 9100rpm and 7000rpm on the engine in my calculation. It's built for 12000rpm and it tolerates 10% over rev. Should be good for well over 500hp.

I'm not sure what you mean by hiding, but I could take lots more
The A4 is just sitting in the garage, and it loves being photographed. But how do I know that if I take more photos and post them in my picposter, you won't just steal them, too?

Here's a V6 install someone posted in the A4 Forum a year or so ago. :)

Looks like a clean installation.

Re: Thanks for reminding me, I will measure it before I install it.
I'll come back to you with the exact measurements.
I verified that the PT manifold can be used on the ABZ. This could be useful information for the supercharger project.
Unfortunally I don't have any pictures of the finish, I meant to take a picture of the last one before porting it too but when I got there the last one it was perfect! I wish I had a picture of the #7 runner. The two halves of the mold was twisted and was 1.5mm from being lined up. I'm preparing some project pictures tomorrow and there is a few of the finished port job.
I think that a proper port job (head and intake) is well worth the money.

Here's why! There is a lot of interest in supercharging D-2 A8's. A supercharged V6 by PES...
is a rare bird and owning one makes you something of a pioneer. Why not share your experiences with us? Also, could you post additional photos? Do you have any shots taken during the install? How's it run?
