Brian, when do you expect to be driving (and commenting about) an ND with the CARB tune?

I drove it home from Edelbrock with the pending CARB tune, stock header, and our driving is in CARB pending setup. Header on the car briefly and towed to dyno just for testing and for Mat to get started on tunes for Tuner version kit for non-California customers. Driving the latest CARB pending tune in the car again today with stock header again. I am told big updates still coming, but it feels really close to final, feels great. After testing finishes this will be our CARB demo car with stock header, etc., so folks can visit and take a ride and know what the CARB setup feels like. I can tell you that you are NOT suffering with the CARB install, the tune is well sorted and smooth start to finish.

Thanks Brian for all the updates! Glad things are going well with the development of this kit.
Can't wait... Glad to see you running out there in the NC on Sunday!

Indeed the plan is this car at Laguna. No roll bar in this RF, so it won't go around the track. Will trailer up the ND Race car for rides around the track with the Tuner version....if we get it ready in time, that's the hope.

Always fun to be going through a newly arrived magazine and find picture of any of our Project Cars! This time the surprise was courtesy our friends at Konig, they liked our RF on new Konig 17x8 Ultraform wheels enough to feature it in their newest magazine ads! As seen here these are 17x8 size, and our Supercharged RF lowered with our RF Springs and KONI SPORT shocks. It gets compliments everywhere....

I just got back from my first time driving my car with the supercharger....and I am happy to report it is WIFE APPROVED! I admit I was hesitant to even get the supercharger, feeling it might become another toy that was too intense for my daily driving or long trips up the coast. However, my first impression was that it felt similar, yet enhanced. There was no learning curve or time needed to get used to it, it just simply went...and boy did it go! It is as if this is how the car should have started, it simply does what stock does but better. It is zippy and quick without feeling out of control or harsh. I was instantly comfortable and happy that not only did I still love my car, but I love it even more. Andi
This sounds a lot like how I feel with the mp62 nc, which I just finished installing. Yes, there is a slight mechanical hum but every bit as smooth and easy to drive as factory, only with much more fun. I am so happy with it and knowing the nd kit is that much better is that much more reassuring.

FIVE pallets of Edelbrock Supercharger kits arrived today!

When the driver told me....it sounded like a lot of kits.

But at just 2 kits per pallet that is just 10 kits.

None of these are for CARB state customers, these Tuner kits go to NON-CARB state customers and they will go FAST!

Interesting to note how close this Edelbrock Supercharger kit is to what we see on the NEXT generation Skyactiv motors! Belt driven turbo style supercharger and note the connections for the air/water intercooler...in many ways very similar to what Edelbrock has added to the current generation!
