I don't know if this is for sure, so take it with a grain of salt. They have done some great things for Caddys. They have screwed up alot too though.

Yea I have been in contact with them.... The kit is a direct bolt on for the Camaros also.

BlessedChef10 · 03-11-2011, 08:47 PM

how much?

bmorecam · 03-11-2011, 08:58 PM

is the one that was $11,000 from caddy forum?

BlessedChef10 · 03-11-2011, 08:59 PM

no thanks not for that much

PoorMansCamaro · 03-11-2011, 09:14 PM

I'm almost 100% positive the 11k included the body work, suspension and sc

Amenti · 03-11-2011, 09:55 PM

Ya, there are a lot more things included in that Caddy kit than the supercharger for 11K.....at least, there better be!

What have they screwed up?

Hell, if the supercharger is a direct bolt-on to the Camaro LLT, I can drive my butt down there and check it out. I think I have the funds for a supercharger kit, assuming it's a reasonable price.

TJ91 · 03-12-2011, 01:47 AM

what does the op mean by screwed up alot too?
Would just like to know, dont want any issues with blowing engines and crappy CS

GreenWithEnvy · 03-12-2011, 10:50 AM

I talked to them and is almost 8k for the complete kit... however they include an AEM stand alone ECU. I told them about Vince and Trifecta because they didn't know it was possible. Anyway all the hardware without their tuning would be right around $5,700. I verified with them that it does put down 435hp to the wheels

jimmyh · 03-12-2011, 10:55 AM

So far, it is still in development. Has been for the last 2 years. I just posted this because I saw the other sc thread in here. Until someone cracks the LLT PCM, I think any hopes of a reliable supercharger kit are just pipe dreams.

As far as them screwing up, I am not one for badmouthing a company without evidence. But I would deal with any tuner, even reliable ones, with caution.

Amenti · 03-12-2011, 07:53 PM

I'm sure a standalone PCM would add quite a lot of cost to the kit. $5700 sounds about right when compared to other forced induction options out there.

If that's the case, tack on $600 or so for a tune through Trifecta and you should have a functional FI option. Hmm, something to consider.

Interesting stuff....

I think you mean at the crank....This is a direct quote from the page.....
"So we took the 3.6DI V6 making 304BHP and pushed the horsepower levels up a few notches (approx. 435BHP)."

Reading that I am pretty damn sure they mean at the crank, no way a base CTS 3.6 is putting 304 at the wheels.

Still this is an immense upgrade in HP.

Dang, and here I thought it was making 435 at the wheels! lol. Would have been a great challenger to the supercharger option for the mustang which is claiming to make around 430 AT the wheels. If this was around 435 at the crank, that would be about 350ish to the wheels. Very impressive numbers forsure, but enough? Maybe to some, but maybe not to others.
