I'm interested in the supercharger kit, but have a few questions first.

Have you had it running on a TBS ?
What mod was needed to get the drive ?
Is it complete ?

For those thinking of the Speed Trip or Wilcox conversions, the speed trip route is the cheapest. Wilcox will probably get the power though as they flow the head, something I haven't done yet. Don't forget that you will also need a good exhaust and less restrictive air filter for the ultimate power trip.

I purchased my carb rubbers from wilcox engines, they seemed prompt and helpful to me? They also seem willing to sale any componenet of their kit separately.

The CP5 cams they have in their kit, are they cams from another bike, what model?

Yes, but you can pick them up used for MUCH cheaper - I got both off Ebay for $200 bucks total.

I heard back from South Bay - 1200 bucks for speed triple cams and igniter box. All of suddent by adventurer has all the speed i need. Nothing from Wilcox. Being acrross the pond - shying away from buying from them. I like to be able to call if problems. thanks for updating.

The Wilcox CP5 cams are a custom grind and have about the same duration as the Trophy cams with the lift of the Super III cams. Wilcox has also specs them with a few degrees of retard on the exhaust for improved low rpm performance.

The combination of lift and duration seems to be designed for the 8750 redline bikes.
