Maybe with this application, you could still use the URD kit. Also, it may support an intercooler, which would allow you to use lower octane fuel. It's interesting and I'm anxious to see the dyno results. Also, mounting might be easier because you keep your intake plenum on. Good for those backyard mechanics. And I agree about the black powdercoating. I wonder what the experts have to say about this.

I am a bit confised how he claims to make more HP at the same pressure (6 psi) because at the same pressure the airflow (and thus the HP) is exactly the same. Only possible increase in efficiency would be from having that air be cooler (temp-wise) with his setup than with the TRD.....which is possible, but 20 HP more???
I will be as curious as any to see the dyno results at 15 psi.....should make some decent HP. I still think the centrifical type would be the best for running an intercooler but I thought his setup was worth noting too.

Finally!!
Something to compete with the TuRD unit! It definately looks like a better setup. One of the problems with the TRD unit is its so small, and heat soak is a big problem down here in the south. It says in the description they can put in an intercooler (air/water). If I was in the market for an SC I'd definately try and help them out. We need someone to come out with something thats not undersized, and has the ability to run an intercooler. Some people want to run more boost! (when they get more fuel of course).

Theres more to boost than PSI and temp, I think you are forgetting about flow rates. 25cfm @ 110F @ 10psi does not equal the same mass of air that 45cfm @ 110 @ 10psi provides.
(Remember it's the mass of air that counts. )

Greetings,
I'm not sure of the answer to that question but seems to me one big difference is that the TRD compresses the air After the MAS, the other compresses the air before.
I'm an old timer,used to blowers compressing the air/fuel mixture. Injection adds the fuel after the air is compressed, I think.
