I can't wait to see it this week at SEMA! We will be reporting back on pricing and availability and OF COURSE PICTURES asap!!

edited: availability is early '13... looks like there is going to be a bit of time to learn all about it!
Pricing will be 30-35% higher than current systems.

OMG that is sexy... Not sure if you need to put this thread in a 21 and up area though. That is a little too risque to be showing on a family forum! If my fiance walks in on me drooling over that pic the wedding will be off!

So this is basically a supercharger with a built in transmition...? I'm curious what the numbers end up looking like, and how this will compete now with other superchargers/turbos? It almost sounds like they figured out how to get the best of both worlds.

It shouldn't need anymore power than any other pully. The pully just changes size internaly which will change the speed of the centrafuge in the supercharger thus increasing or decreasing boost levels. I am assuming they build it with the internals being fairly light weight.
