Anybody heard anything more on this. I see Weapon X is giving one away in their sale, but I cant find it on the web site. It July and in the PNW we only have so many weeks of race weather. Might need to but Killer Chiller instead.

If I buy some pistons and connecting rods, will you throw the chiller in for free?

I second this and would like an answer.

And curious. Just a question so don't bite my head off. What's the difference between running this and running an intake set up running off of meth? Doesn't Meth do the same and cool the IAT1's, excuse me IAT2's? Or am I completely missing the boat here.

When people don't say what they're going to do, it isn't good. There have been multiple posts about this product's release, and so far, only excuses have been given here. This leaves a lot of speculation as to why this has been happening and possible problems with the product's functionality and/or reliability IMO.

Since Ben and the Shop are swamped, and the last piece of tooling just showed up...I was granted permission to let the cat out of the bag!
Weapon-X will finish machining the last needed parts next week, and
since my car is at the shop for a build, it will get the 1st production kit fully installed.
Ben will also open up a group buy on September 1st....and that is when I pick up my car!

So is this the secret mod you mentioned in another thread or is there also something else?

I am anxious to hear some results and would love to see some track logs once this is out there. Iat’s Throughout a full run at xx boost pressure and XX outside temp kind of thing. This along with a g1pro intercooled intake would be a fun winter project.

Sorry guys, the delay has nothing to do with the kit functionality as we have a half dozen running around. The delay was on the tooling and once that was in, the Haas was tied up running other parts for a couple of weeks as we have sold a TON of custom valve covers lately as well as our Secondary Port Injection kits, so it's just a lack of time with my engineer and equip.

Trust me, you know when I don't even have time to play on here that we're slammed and I miss it, but I had to spend a lot of R&D time with my C7 ZR1 and making 800whp now on that got me into the 9s first! It should've been deeper into the 9s but it was running hot and we figured out why after and now it's cool as a cucumber, so I'm eager to get it back to the track again, but my ZL1 didn't even make it to Camaro Fest as a result of everything going on, but all good things!

We did just this with Storm's LT 427 C7, F1X, G1Pro (you're cutting your hood lol), and our chiller = 1275whp on our Mustang dyno... and then came the 200 shot next

- F1X Blower outlet temp at 25psi was nearly 300*
- IATs post manifold were in the 90*s at the top of a pull on the dyno and even cooler with air movement on the street ripping through 4 gears!
- Chilled water in the low 40*s (sheet metal manifold should've been ceramic coated so it picked up a lot of heat vs my ZL1 chiller in the low 30*s)
- Getting rid of terrible Air to Air IC reduced the pressure drop from 8psi to just 1, so we were able to slow the blower down and make gobs more power.

Checkout that condensation






This is the 25psi boost only hit now vs. the air to air 21psi + 200 nitrous hit before:


So, bear with me till the end of the month and Intimidator's kit will be on in all it's "plug and play" glory and the world of chillers will be revolutionized
