Re: RKSport Supercharger
Also they apparently never made the kit. It seems that vector made the kit even when it was sold under the RK-Sport name. He stopped making the kits a while back from what one of the members on here told me and basically closed his shop... so, no more kits. You can pick up a used one pretty cheap, just go ahead and budget a rebuild in if you buy one because it might need it. You could also go with the mach kit as Andrew pointed out, it's a bit more than the RK-sport kit was new but comes with a lot more stuff and the Procharger head unit is better than the powerdyne in several ways. The only problem I've read about with that kit is that it is not held in place very well and can be pulled to an angle allowing the belt to walk and get eaten up. NCState was working on a third mounting bracket that should solve that problem though so if you decide to get that kit I'd talk to him about either getting one made or possibly a template so you can have a local shop make it. If you decide to go the powerdyne rout do some searching for the John_D wrap and the grooved pulleys and post up if you have any other questions about upgrades for the kit and such.2001 Arctic White Firebird With Black Drop Top<br /><br />3:42 Gears<br />Zexel LSD<br />BMR upper A-Arms<br />Trans Am exhaust with 3\" I-pipe and cutout<br />Modified intake<br />Mecham Hood<br />Trans Go shift kit<br />Making rear control arms and panhardComment

Re: RKSport Supercharger
Yeah I heard they stopped the kit as well. The mach kit is 4395.00 and comes intercooled which is nice with an 8psi or 10 psi option. I actually got in the mail today the NCState's bracket so it will be interesting to see if the belt problem is solved. I plan on reinstalling my kit the weekend after this after I get a new belt.....I dont know if you would want to stop down and see the kit TPunk?Comment
