I think they are going to be the next best thing above turbos. The response is instant, with no lag. I rode with the M8 (rip charger) one day last winter and the instant response was amazing. My turbo m8 wasn't working well that day so I couldn't go head to head with it, but I know it would lanch intantly, unlike my turbo. That XP is going to be one fun sled to ride.

It'll be interesting to see supers on 2strokes. Will this flatten out the HP curve? I'd like to know what they have done to create "enough back pressure in the combustion chamber so that the boosted fuel mixture does not blow right through." I didn't realize this was a problem, 2stroke turbos seem to run fine?

I'm gonna buy two - one for each cylinder. Then you're going down beotch.

Bring it! I still think you'd be better off running twin tcat motors and maybe use one of the many 670s kicking around your shop as a starter!

And I'm not just anyones Beotch...I've got standards they're low, but they're there!

Very limited #'s of these kits available initially...but...just so happens that my riding buddy will have one on his M8 in Dec. so we will see how it goes then. Should be a hoot.
