Any Thoughts on this product?
Better than turbo or just different?
thx

It's different than a turbo, that's for sure. But depends on what you're looking for. I have yet to see a single turbo kit put out good numbers on the track unlike the suoerchargers. The ipf kit is great, with tons of knowledge and research behind it

There's also a bunch of members here who have posted reviews.

But there are members who have turbo kits who choose not to run on a track but love them for day to day use

I'm having alot of thoughts about it- like "How am I gonna sneak down to Tempe and get one of these bolted on, and make it back before you-know-who misses me?"

I have he IPF supercharger and I love it. Very easy to install. Total bolt on, if I had to take it off I can easily go back to oem. My car is my daily driver and have driven it through snow and rain with no problems. That's with t2 ports and the air filter getting more exposed. Will have final number gains when I can get free time o hit the dyno soon. Any more questions pm Jesse of ipf tuning or me some more.

+1 other than Gretchen getting track times in the mid 12's. Most of us are street folks lol. I prefer TQ over HP. But most times the HP isn't to far behind the TQ numbers if not more depending on tune and compression. I don't think turbo kits are for everyone IMO!

Nothing a simple "business" trip can't solve.

Yea but gretchen had a bunch of supporting mods that most will never ever go through with. But yes, the tq that turbos make is unbelievable.

The way I see it, it's all in the tuning. A forced induction kit is as good as the tune behind it. With a proper tune, the kit will behave and produce exactly as intended but with a bad tune, everything goes out the window. A bad tune can ruin a great kit pretty quickly. Now I'm not saying trifecta isn't a good tuning company because I like what they've done with my car but the only proven tune behind a FI system is the IPF one. Vince still hasn't been able to nail the tune down on a lot of these kits while IPF is putting out great tunes with their kits. That alone is all I need to convince me to go with IPF. If Vince ever gets it figured out to where it is spot on, I might change my mind but at the moment IPF it seems is great.

I may be wrong.... Just my thought though

I love my IPF kit, lok for the latest GM High Tech Magazine and you will see my car featured. It is a blast to drive, my wife drives it too, and she is the picky one. If it did not run right, she would be telling me. I am featuring all of the GM upgrades plus this kit, awesome combination... Do not hesiste to get one, and the install can be done in a weekend in your driveway, it literally bolts up, only modification is 2 cutouts in plastic for the intercooler piping...

Sikoriko · 11-16-2012, 07:31 PM

Easy to install. And easy to remove if you had to go back to stock. IPF been very helpful never regret getting the centrifical unit even out here. And still getting great gas mileage.

Sounds like I need to get my customer with a single T70 kit on his LLT to the track.
