SD card was corrupted so only about 10 or so pictures came out! Let's start with the star of the show, the car that grabbed everyone's attention the second it was sighted, a Ford GT tuned by everyone's hated Texan tuner, Hennessey, to 700 horsepower! #Skaybait

That electric-supercharged looks really ghetto.

My roomie and I were debating it, I think there's potential for it at low rpms since it maintains a constant speed but have it shut off and run a bypass system for high rpms. It probably weighs less than a supercharger without sapping power from the engine to run it, and weighing a lot less than a turbocharged setup.

That's my ghetto supercharger.

This will clear things up (not my dyno, but same unit)

That dyno was stock ECU+Ecutek tune I believe. I'm running stock ECU with an Open Flash Tablet tune (comparable to Ecutek) for this electric supercharger. Same supercharger unit makes 220whp on E85. A bigger unit is in the works, as well as other battery options.

The problem i have with these units is reliability, these aren't hard tested like the SC and turbos on the other twins.

It's just too new, those i give you props for risking it.

Also the fact that the people who sell these kinda make it look like toys, not everything is as simple at they make seem be...
