I paid about $3500 for my intercooled roushcharger with roush cai.
The gauges and pod were about $350.
I took my sweet time on the install, prob about 3 weekens worth. No heat in the garage and double/triple/quad checked everything as I went. Some parts in the kit were not supplied or correct such as hoses, bolts, and brackets. I also did long tube headers, these were a royal pain in the ***!
I bought a tune from stage3motorsports that does not properly work.
Called Troyer a few times, heard nothing back, must be busy.
Called JDM a few times and swapped emails with them, should have correct tune this weekend.

If you're serious about supercharging then stick to a Whipple. The Eaton TVS is an excellent supercharger but still lags behind the twin screw. The Eaton Roots type is an antique that probably should be discontinued given the advancements made in supercharging technology. Independent testing has confirmed that the twin screws are the best superchargers out there. They just happen to cost a lot more than the others.

For me it was a knee jerk reaction to get the eaton, had it not been for the price it would have been the whipple.
