This is a prototype if I recall, production has not been decided yet, nor pricing. I would think that the pricing would be comparable to ls1 kits/cobra kits... probably in the 6-7k range.

yes very nice set up but, for that price range i will stick with my pro-charger set up. or even go with a nice turbo set if i was going to spend that kinda of money.

dumb question how in the wild are they going to run the throttle cable if the throttle body is so far to the drives side because the cable comes out right below

also I see there is no room for water to air inter cooler so I am assuming this is for looks and only a small amount of boost not good for high hp guys

Custom throttle cable and these blowers don't make as much heat. There is always water injection.
