The 12A camden supercharger kit is supposed to put out 270 horsepower at the flywheel with 15psi (it's max), a holley 650 or bigger carburetor (i have a holley 715 if you want to buy it), and a street port. the 13b with the same setup puts out 300 hp at the flywheel

oh, by the way, Atkins rotary ( www.atkinsrotary )sells a camden kit, and they are cool. they will tell you how to jet the carb and set it up, free of charge. hard to find a place like that anymore.

so, that camden kit for the 12a would produce an average of how much hp? these custom turbo setups are making some nice *** numbers. and are half the price. like one person said; do the camdens come as a kit? with everything needed? if so then this could be an idea that hasnt crossed my mind yet 
.....
till NOW MUHUHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAA! god i need to get fat.

Do the camden chargers "whine" like an 03 cobra or newer lightning with an upgraded pulley?
My friend has a very bad *** quick lightning.... and I love the way the supercharger sounds when its wound out
