2018 Camaro Procharger kit CARB cert?

Just heard that the Procharger kit for the 2018 SS Camaro now has a CARB certification sticker. Is this true?

According to the their website....yes, it's true. BTW, the setup looks totally different than mine as this new one uses the stock airbox. Head unit looks way different too.

This kit shares the existing 6-Rib accessories belt to spin the HU.

I guess that this has disadvantages compared with the dedicated 8-Rib belt drive which spins the HU exclusively.

Advantages of the new kit is:
- CARB Compliance for those who need it from a regulatory PoV
- Retains the stock Airbox for those who require / like the appearance of the engine bay to remain as close to OEM-Stock as possible

I guess that the fact that this kit shares the Acc. belt, means that even at 7-8 PSI there is a likelihood of failures, I.E. belt slippage, rapture, Etc.

Would be good if experienced Centri users could chime in (both Vortech and ATI systems)

I like the new air inlet SO much better. Is there an upgrade price??? Probably not as I bet the intercooler is different.

The shared belt and not using a dedicated belt for the HU might become a reliability issue.
