That is the samething that I said when I saw it lol

 

What's up with the crappy pics.

 

look at that serious handmade downpipe...dam

 

I can see that one at the dealer.. "Hey, I never removed the tamperproof cap!!" It would be funny just to see the look on thier faces :D

 

I didnt swap out the pulley...is it still under warranty??

 

now that would be a Kodak Moment

 

These Pictures are from my boy

 

nifty.

 

looks pretty sick, are the back rims black?

 

I have to say I cant stand the way it looks really... but it is a show car, so the graphics and mismatched rims probably fit in better there. Just my opinion though.

 

Same here don't like the look but it's for a car show so it makes sense

 

Hahahahahahaha OMG that is retarded, a vortech is the 100% LAST supercharger you would want to choose to twin charge anything! They obviously had the skills to fab it up nice and purdy but not the brain power to realise how twincharging works.

 

I imagine this car was built for pure show reasons. I doubt it runs down the track on friday nights.
I agree its not practical, but it sure as hell is cool.

 

but then again...why build something and put so much money into a setup like that and it not run..sounds kinda stupid if it doesnt run at all

 

But it does run. You can look at the engine bay and see that. Look at the turbo manifold, look at the supercharger belt. This thing runs.
I was just making comments on the efficency of the setup. It might not be the most practical to make the most power. But its a show car. Most show cars at Sema arent even driven around. They are for show. Atleast this one is driven.

SEMA is a venue for companies to showcase new products, designs or whatever. Its all an advertising gimmick to get us talking about products....and guess what....this Twin Charged tC succeded in doing what it was meant to do for AIT. We are talking about the company because of the twin setup. Practical or not, they have achieved their goal.

 

i could smoke that thing, all i need is a wing and a little fire extinguisher for my passenger side a pillar oh cant forget the apc logos

 

I have my doubts.

Look at any TRD SC on a TC. Look at where the intake box pipes to the SC. Then see where it goes from there (from the SC to the throttle body).

The intake piping in those pics go straight to the TB. So just where is that SC blowing? Certainly not to the TB.... The belt might be spinning the impeller, but where's that compressed air going?

 

The top pipe going into the side of the supercharger is the intake pipe. Then off the top it loops back around to go to an intercooler. The piping then comes off the right hand side where the battery would be and into the TB. SOmeone on here had an intercooler on there supercharger and it was a similar mess of piping.
So it does make sense for the supercharger, how the turbo is interrelated I am not sure.

 

Ok, so what exactly is going to the throttle body? Sure looks like your standard everyday CAI.

 

FMIC charge pipe.

Same concept as this..
