no, by those photos i'd prefer the g2... here's why, what we made previously was a 1" thick piece of aluminum cut to the shape of the base of the SC. you millan opening under the outlet of the SC in the shape of a 1" thick small heatercore. you bolt the SC to that so the outlet air is forced to pass through the heatercore, and THEN into the motor.
you run a small external pump through the closed fluid system, and through a water to ait FMIC. what you then have is a water to air intercooler for a supercharger...
let me find photos... it'll explain better.

ok here's one of a similar design. this gets placed between the base of the blower and the top of the intake.
with a very similar design I was putting out over 15PSI on stock internal on a eaton blower and maintaing outlet temps of 130*.
I Love superchargers. I know alot of people are old pros when it comes to turbos, but for some reason the belt driven off the line power of a SC drives me crazy. I'm not against turbos, by all means the overhaul on my wife's 2.0t saab 9-3 aero is a blast, but the Audo WILL be supercharged.

Yeah I know pyrometer, egt gage, same thing really...yourright.Think he should get one if he does the SC on the 3.0? He'll definitely want an A/F gage, at least while he's tuning it so he can monitor what is happening and doesn't run too lean w/o knowing.

There's no way to seperate the intake runners from the body of the SC? I saw how it was designed but figured it had to be a stock body charger mated to a manufactured set of intake runners. I can't imagine they'd weld the runners direct to the outlet... who knows maybe they did. it's straight dumb if they did.
thanks for the info anyway, i'm so far removed from beginning the project, I'm not even motivated to call the manufacturer to ask.
PS - wheels took a 3 day drop ship, they'll be here maybe as soon a tomorrow!

It is a short shift kit. it's the ebay kit. Worked great.
yes, the Modas will be for sale, without tires. Before they go up for sale, they will be sandblasted and repainted the moda silver color. they'll be like brand new. i'll get detailed photos once they are done, but if someone wants them, and wants them in a specific color, I can have them painted any color code, or powder coeated, their choice as well.
