THERE WAS ALOT OF TIME PUT INTO THIS KIT AND IT DOES WORK.
INFACT IT WORKS WITHOUT ANY FLAWS.
AS FAR AS THE MPG THING GOES JUST CALL AND TALK TO US AT "F.A.T."
WE JUST TOOK IT UP TO FLAGSTAFF ARIZONA (two hours north of pheonix) ABOUT TWO WEEKS AGO FOR A SHOW AND WE DID THE MATH. 26 MPG IS WHAT WE CAME UP WITH.

How much HP is the belt steeling to run the Super charger?
With the New forced air being pushed into the turbo are the injector pulsing durring the burn cyle ?
I have seen this set up on diesel engines and fuel systems have been changed to accomidate the new increase in air volume.

As far as this compound charged setup, it is one of the coolest I've ever seen, and the hp numbers speak for themselves. I wish I could see a map of how the air flows. Great job FAT INC!!!

Rumor is $9,500, but that is not an offcial price so who knows. Boost is supposed to come on at 1900 RPM. When does full boost come on, I don't know.
This seems like a great idea, but if you don't like it that's fine nobody is asking you to. I don't see why people attack this setup like it some how threatens their personhood. On NASIOC they are having a fit arguing back and forth like little children. The biggest reason not to have a setup up like this is a. Too expensive and b. Too complicated to get set up. B is not an issue if somebody developes a kit with the bugs worked out.
Sorry for the rant, but I never understood why it is when something new or different comes along people feel the need to tear it apart instead of asking questions for clarification or the theory/operation behind it.
Upon further review I really should have posted this on NASIOC as there isn't really any negative here.
