Unofficial Roe Supercharger Signup

[klamathpro]

How many would buy a new Roe Supercharger if Sean made it again for the GEN1/2? He has said the cost would be around the mid $7k range for a new kit if he makes it.
Put your name down and we can submit the list to Sean.

 

[STUGOTS]

Im in (but Sean already knows this)

 

[Vital Velocity]

To make it carry more weight I would add who's in and willing to put money down. Everyone can say that are in but when it comes time to drop the money people tend to drop off

 

[s55c]

I'm in.... willing to put up a deposit as well.

 

[100_]

I'm in: Marc Light either my 2002 RT/10 or my 1997 GTS.

 

[gtsfe21]

For what its worth... Depending on when... I'll be in the market next spring.

 

[WDW MKR]

Same non-intercooled setup as before?

 

[whitebluevipe]

depending on time frame I would like one.

 

[brentsGTS]

I'd be interested but would need to see size, specs and pricing first.

 

[plumcrazy]

there should be a heck no option

Plum, considering you had a Paxton car which was obviously a choice, what exactly don't you like about the Roe? I don't want this to be a bash on the product, I am really after the technical side of what you didn't like. The power delivery is what has attracted me to this type of blower, which from my understanding a centrifugal cant duplicate. I have been on the fence between an NA build and a Roe, obviously the NA approach is much more expensive.

Good question. The Kenne Bell 2.8l does come in liquid cooled and non-cooled form. So, will the Roe come standard cooled or as an option? I mean, I know this isn't official but is there any reason, mechanical or not, that it wouldn't be available cooled?

Liquid-cooled and intercooled are not the same thing.

You can get a new air-cooled paxton kit for $9000. Is it worth the extra $2k?

Ask a Roe guy and he'll say no, ask a Paxton guy and he'll say yes. Comes down to HP level you desire and the intended use...

The liquid cooling is for the housing/gears and not the intake charge. No real benefits from running liquid cooled.

 

[sanguissaevus]

Ahhh, i was thinking the liquid cooling was implying it had a water to air intercooler. So its like a turbo with coolant lines to it cooling the bearings instead of just oil cooling it. Thanks.

No understanding your statement.... why would a ROE guy say NO ?

 

[klamathpro]

With 15 solid yes's and 12 on the fence, this looks good. I sent Sean an email with a link to this thread.

 

[brentsGTS]

Ttt, if you build it they will come!

 

[STUGOTS]

I think its an awesome idea
