Congratulations! So, how do you like it?
Did you install the dial in the cabin that let's you choose the amount of boost you can use, if so, can you do this on the fly?
Did you do the install as per Blitz with the better plugs and higher octane fuel? You have a header so you should get some really nice performance gains, I'm betting. Is this on a manual or auto tranny?
Must be nice. Any change in cabin noise? Can you feel any additional low end power?
Awesome man, thanks for sharing!

I'm definitely very interested to get some more feedback on how you like the Blitz. Are you planning on getting a dyno? As already asked, I too am wondering if you upgraded plugs and ran higher octane gas. There was someone who posted about an install of the Blitz without and the results were disappointing. Thanks for any additional info.

We've had the Blitz Supercharger on our xB for almost 7 months now and I've loved it from the start. It doesn't turn the car into a 911 killer, let's be realistic, but it's a huge difference over stock. Lots of fun to drive.
Looking forward to seeing your pics of the install!

nah...we never did put a header in it. Maybe down the road although to be honest I think we're about done modding that car....I'm hoping the dealership will give me $$ to spend on the tC now. We've already got 19's and springs on it, I'm going to see how crazy they'll let me get.

Does anyone know where a dyno is in North Carolina? I would get it on a dyno if I could find one close. I work in Boone, NC at Idol's Tire if anyone passes by and wants to look at the Blitz system.

That's a excellent question...
It'll be interesting to hear how it does, especially with needing the higher octane...

I paid 3000.00 for the blitz system. I installed it my self. I had about 8 hours in the install. It was not too bad someone could probably do it themself, but it does require a bit of tools. I own a shop, I would probably ask for about 10 hours labor. Any shop with a skilled tech could perform the job with no hassle. I got my system from www.highendwarehouse.com
