[QUOTE="Nocturnal5.0, post: 12963867, member: 135205"] I'm pretty impressed with my Paxton kit, especially given the price as compared to the PD blowers. I did a write up on it after the install and can shoot you a link if you like. As for the shortcomings of the kit, you've got the plastic reservoir tank, which I would [U]highly[/U] recommend swapping out for a JPC aluminum unit. Mine leaked on me upon first start up, and it was a PITA to drain it of coolant to get the other one installed. Also I've been having alot of issues with the cut portion of the upper radiator hose having a very slow leak that I may have to tear everything apart to fix once and for all, which is also a good amount of a headache. However, those are my only complaints with the kit, the instructions are pretty solid and mostly all-inclusive, the cutting of different plastic pieces seems daunting at first but it's really not that bad. The car is a M6, and with the mods I'm running (Paxton 2200SL running the base 3.8" pulley that comes pre-mounted, 47 lb/hr injectors, JLT open element filter and a Lethal o/r H pipe), I put down 640/512 SAE with an AED tune. Haven't gotten to run at the track yet, as weather and my work schedule prevent me from making it up there [/QUOTE]
