Starr doesnt have a kit to fit the US version of the car, however.. someone here in the states is making that kit a reality for us yanks

 

[GTODEALER]

That puts a big on my face!!! BTW, they still haven't emailed me back, HUGE time difference....

Screw type impellers are cool because the air flow is continuous. Some of the straighter semi-helix impeller designs get irritating because the air comes in as a series of staccato blasts. That's why you get that thumping sound underneath the blower whine sometimes...

 

[RiceEater]

$8k... and I was getting all excited about the possibility's of having one for my 05. Well that flew out the window fast.

I like how they call 10psi "low boost"

That quote may be in $AUS. Multiply $8000 by .758989 to get the conversion into $US. If that's correct, then you're looking at $6K and change.

When it's 3 Tuesday afternoon here in San Francisco, it's 8 Wednesday morning in Sydney -- so those blokes will no doubt get back to you after they finish their first case of Victoria Bitter.

By the way, a brewery down there markets two beers. One is called Piss and the other is called Piss Weak (it's their light offering).

Australia's my kind of place. My goal is to live in the US from April through September -- and Australia from October to March. Sort of a never ending summer kind of a thing.

Very nice....

If its forced induction that your looking for another possibility is Turbo's. Check out www.proturbokits.com there working on a twin turbo kit for the goat. No price tag yet, but there talking upto 1000 peak hp.... questionable, but if it's true you should rethink the drive train.

 

[RiceEater]

I really don't know how they could get it up to 1k hp and make the car work without the drivetrain simultaneously exploding.

I'd much rather go with Lingenfelter's complete engine rebuild set-up and such. I talked to them about it and they've had a goat running at about 700-750 rwhp after complete installation. Comes with the heafty price tag of around $40k though.

 

[GTODEALER]

I hear a rumor..... and remember this is a RUMOR, that there is a 1000rwhp GTO in existence..... the motor was dynoed, but once installed, the drivetrain (tranny and rear end ) won't hold up! (GO FIGURE)

 

[Goatacular]

I can believe it. That supercharger link u put up said a 427 with forged everything and a charger....estimated 1000 rwhp tahhhts outrageous!! Found a site by the Brother of Pontiac GTO Drift Car Championship leader Rhys Millen......Performance parts!..481hp supercharger right at 5g's ....and a 600hp Twin Turbo for 8,000....Cool Toys for the GTO!...Give it a look :cheers http://www.rodmillenstore.com/products.aspx?car=gto&category=engine
