I've already got boost on the way but I've been wanting to try your setup one day. Love the way it sounds at idle.

whats worse is the FI kits price leaps going from 14 to 15. Yes I get it that's a new chassis but its really not that different physically bolting a kit on.

I understand a turbo kit plumbing is but the blowers cmon.......

its that S550 tax..........

I know in the case of procharger its basically a complete redesign.

Different intercooler
Different piping
Different bracket
Completely different blower positioning

Not to mention I believe the stage 2 kit comes with ID1050x injectors and will get you about 50 more hp than a comparable 2014 application. Not sure about other applications but the s550 kit has about as much in common with the s197 kit as it does with an 2010 Camaro V8 kit.

Say what? Could be wrong I thought the brackets and IC was the same on them of course depending on what supporting parts you chose can greatly change the output like headunit size and injectors.

Hmm good to know i could have swore the brackets and IC maybe not plumping though was interchangeable 2011 - 2017 on paxton/vortech kits and the procharger kits across both S197 and S550.

Again I thought paxton 2200 to vortech YSi allowed different size head units on a common bracket setup and procharger same bracket p1, d1, f1.

Thanks for the kind words. :)

Our price is based on cost of the kit to produce...

So intercooler core costs change a LOT.
Injector costs
Fuel Voltage Booster
Tuning device

Something a simple as a "common" intercooler core, can mean hundreds of dollars in cost difference. However we don't like "common" and really want the best dang stuff we can get. :)

every couple years mfgs have price increases, i haven't seen anything in the thousands.

i think 14-15, paxton went up $200, but they added a fabricated metal tank and a couple other small things

Kinda hoping the costs drop with the new chassis update with the 18's...Sure the R&D has already been paid for by a good bit now on all the popular kits already since we are 2+ yeas in now.
