We'll be making a formal announcement on that. Its the same exact unit as a Vortech v3 si-trim. Vortech = Paxton. Just gets a tag paxton or vortech when its sent out. I have worked with Paxton/Vortech for years doing a lot of product development especially with East Coast... I personally run a v7 2200 unit myself. Like I said its a basic name change and we figured why not use one of the oldest names in motorsports for our kit!

Just to give you a correlative run down:

v2/v7 are oil fed units
v3 is self contained unit.

Novi 1200 = Vortech Si Trim
Novi 1500 = Vortech T-Trim
Novi 2200 = Vortech Jt-Trim

Novi 2000/2500 are on their own
Vortech YSi is also on its own

I had an idea they were the same or very similar. So I imagine fitment will not be an issue either way. I plan on the ECS kit myself with the Novi 1500 by the end of the year

Yes, they are the same and the same fitment.

Cool.. Let me know whenever you are ready we'll take care of you on pricing for the ECS kit.

I am partial to the ECS/Paxton kit running a Novi 2200 this year myself. Last year we went 9.87 with the Novi 1500 on a stock motor!

I will def give you guys a call about it and see what we can work out. I've already talked to Lethal about it but I will give you a chance to give me a deal on it!

On this V6 kit, is it self contained oil or do you have to run engine oil lines to it?

Thanks!
