Ok, where as I do have faith in Carpy in sending me a complete kit, can anyone verify that this is all there? I honestly am not 100%.

Don't see those too often. What increase in power do you get from it?

I couldn't tell you. I'm not even 100% sure how much of a gain I'll get. I imagine a lot. Lol

Those are some impressive pieces of kit.  Are you going to try to get the supercharger actually working?  If so, I believe that model was not functioning on the Koppa Cafe because it needed a belt.  You may need to do some searching to find additional parts.  I would love to see the Supercharger actually working and the dyno output.  Good luck with the project.
