Cream-puff goes Pop
The early Roe SC/5lb pulley combination resulted in a safe 100-110hp increase, using the cards supplied. Roe intoduced the w/m kit about 2 years later with the claim that a 6 lb pulley will work with creampuff motors. With the added boost, a bump in timing and w/m another 20-30hp could be...- Mr Hemi Head

Anyone with a Roe supercharger using the AEM water/meth kit?
I would go with Roe and the reason...this setup can be tricky to tune. The Roe W/M package has been on the market for a number of years, the tune supplied should be close enough. I have one of the first shipments and it was a pain to setup but Sean stayed with it until we got it right. The...- Mr Hemi Head

If your car is a Sunday cruiser try Barrett-Jackson. On a stated value policy, limited to 2K mi/year, the premium is $320/year. BJ is the broker but Chubb/Chartis is the insurer.- Mr Hemi Head

Comments on GEICO
Be careful! Insured my GTS with GEICO and thought all was well. Two weeks later I received a form asking to list the mods, if any. A few days later I received a cancellation notice, retroactive to the start of the policy. They said the car does not meet our underwriting requirements. So...- Mr Hemi Head

Carfax shows salvage history on a car with a clear title...Question
Carfax reports info from public records. If CF is wrong the owner needs to clear the black marks against this VIN before you purchase. This is not an easy feat. My wife wanted to sell her Audi privately so we ordered a Carfax report, it showed an odometer discrepancy. When we moved to VA...- Mr Hemi Head

Strange Extended Warranty Question
Glad to hear that you did not purchase the Nissan Warranty...the exclusions are many. The car must be inoperable before they will pay for repairs. Owned a CPO Pathfinder with a leaking catalytic converter that thay would not cover. Why? They changed the name of the Cat Converter to Tube...- Mr Hemi Head

Got a Roe Supercharger? Please read
Stepping up from a 5lb pulley it is a must. I have one of Roe's first run W/M kits and it was a PITA to tune...the Roe card was worthless. Maybe good for an extra 25hp with a mild tune.- Mr Hemi Head

Dyno'd My Roe Setup today. Man do I have questions.
If you speak with Sean I think you will discover that this is normal. The creep is due to the limitation of the heads. Someone mentioned that rockers would help...the least expensive way to address this and gain another 10 to 15hp in the process. I have not gone that route because the car...- Mr Hemi Head

Dyno'd My Roe Setup today. Man do I have questions.
I have the same boost creep and torque is lower than HP as well but the car runs too good to worry about it. Forget the boost gauge and install a AF gauge...permanently. The dyno is a good place to start but street tuning is ideal...on a closed course. A laptop, Roe's VEC software and a AF...- Mr Hemi Head

Viper Tech Props
I can vouch for Dwayne. He serviced my GTS during his employment with Chantilly Dodge.Dwayne is a reputable Tech...told you what was needed without any high pressure tactics. Never had to be concerned about joy rides or workmanship. I wish him the best of luck with his new venture.- Mr Hemi Head

Bumblebee on 601 today....
Kinda pricy for a retirement location. During our house hunt we found that many existing homes were summer residences converted for all year use and did not have a suitable garage. Updating these homes can be challenging and expensive. A new development is underway but building costs are...- Mr Hemi Head

Water/meth systems
I cannot comment on a progressive controller....was this added in a later version? The system that I have consists of the VEC connected to the pump controller which drives the w/m motor.

Water/meth systems
Ken is probably running the same vintage system that I have....the first batch Roe released. I can tell you that it was a PITA to tune...the card supplied was worthless. There is a fine balance between fuel - W/M and there was a fair amount of experimenting to get it right. Too much water the...- Mr Hemi Head

Water/meth systems
Now my question about the VEC is, how is it wired to the pump? The VEC only has 22ga wires as outputs. The pump requires 12ga or larger. You cannot simply run a 12ga +12V to the pump and then run 22ga from the pump to the VEC as a ground. Its just not making sense to me how to wire the VEC up to...- Mr Hemi Head

Vec1 vs Vec2 with my mods.. Where to buy? etc.
A Vec 2 or 3 dyno tune would be a waste of $$ with your mods. IMO Sean supplies cards... that should do the trick.- Mr Hemi Head
