The standard 350+hp supercharger conversion drives out of our doors, fitted and mapped for £5295 (excl. taxes) and for those abroad we also sell the kit on its own for £4795 which includes a pre-programmed ecu chip which is configured to run the standard air flow meter and cat.
The 430hp conversion is only available as a 9m conversion and requires uprated fuel pump, 8 rib drive belts & pulleys, revised ecu chip and larger injectors; the additional price for the parts and fitting comes in around £2500 (excl.). The 430 kit will not run satisfactorily with a standard cat and a bypass is recommended for maximum power.
The 480hp version was a one-off to suit a customer's existing low compression engine but is essentially a 430 kit with Motec so the installation would cost around £10k plus the engine rework.

Does the 350 kit retain the stock A.C. ? A must here in the deep south.

No, the kit has been designed with the European trackday market in mind and therefore only fits cars that do not have a/c. We have considered a revision of this policy, but to date we have not had anyone come forward and offer to pay for the additional development required and there are not enough solid enquiries to encourage us to invest the time ourselves. That said, there are ways to adapt the conversion and we have one fairly serious customer in the UK who is investigating the possibility of fitting an electric a/c pump which would solve the location and mechanical drive problems of running the engine driven pump, so there may be light at the end of the tunnel yet.

Just to throw this out there (don't want to tell you about your business) I designed and built my own supercharger system for my previous car. I ran into numerous fitment and belt routing problems. I halted the project and took a step back to see what was critical and was not so critical. I decided to remove the PS pump and replace it with a remote mount electric PS pump. The cost was pretty high ($700+usd) but it allowed so much more room for mounting that I was able to correct the belt routing and plumbing in a few days afterwards.
I'd feel safer running an electric PS pump than electric AC compressor. I'm sure it would be much cheaper as well.
Has any thought been given to a positive displacement blower that would replace the intake manifold? Lysolhm compressor make a ton of great power and I'm also becoming a big fan of Rotrex superchargers for scalability.
I'm sure you've already gone over all of these options with your team but it's just food for thought. Keep up the good work.

Just doing some initial investigations into Supercharging my UK 968 Sport. Can someone please enlighten me as to the difference between the NineMeister S/C conversion and the SFR S/C conversion?
Does anyone know of any videos showing the performance of 968 S/C'd?

The Eaton SC's used in the GM's are garbage in my opinion. I've rebuilt several throughout the years and they are noisy heat pumps. Nothing more. A more viable option would be a quality Lysohlm compressor similar to the one used on the 2.3L version of the mazda millenia S or the whipplecharger. Just depends on the size you need. The MilleniaS blower is very efficient at low boost operation but a 3.0L may be stretching it's limits a bit. The whipples usually cost a bit more but can make upwards of 750hp or so without breaking a sweat.

I'm sure the millenia SC could be used but it will not support 400whp. Maybe closer to 300whp if you're lucky.
The lysolhm compressor they use is for a relatively small displacement engine and it didn't make a ton of power. The only reason I suggested it was for it's cheap cost and slight bump in power.

Well.......I finally managed to raise the funds for the intercooler radiator combo for my 968 turbo and I am glad I did. I havent fitted it yet but it certainly looks the part. It even has the blanked off connection for the turbo watercooling so it is truly plug and play. I will be fitting it this weekend. Fingers crossed no more cooling or intake temperature issues!!
