Welcome to DTM!!! I'm not all that familiar with superchargers, but I would like to ask... Which car do these HP gains relate to? You may want to check out the ESS, Don (DonDon) got installed into his E46: http://www.dtmpower.net/pictures/ess/writeup_ess.html Hope this helps.

The R35 kits is cool but it does cost a lot. But I'd say the ESS makes a most efficient one to increase the hp and torgue. As far as I know, the R35 kits only helps in hp, but not too much like the supercharger for the torgue. My 2 Cs.

I saw the DonDon article. That's why I was curious. These are for 328 iC. No one seems to put these mods i guess $$. But DonDon is the only review i've seen with extreme mods to the engine / power system.

i think i remember seeing the esstuning blower for 5995? where did u get the 7000 from? this would be highly depressing to me...another thousand?...

i too, was wondering if there were any other kits besides the three aforementioned...is AA actually going to make a turbo for the e46s or is it just a rumor? dinan? etc.

Yeah you're right. It is $5995 from the ESS page. I havent heard anything about Dinan or AA either.
