If you do that math converting 58g/s of gasoline and 100 hrs of testing.. that comes out to 7200gal of gas!!!!

I'm sure the fuel system can flow more than the engines uses but even at half capacity thats 3600gal of fuel!

Did they drive one already or is that just ESTIMATED?

I'm pretty sure they drove one, becuase they had a picture of one of their people in side it and the captions of the article were like, "the new supercharger sounds magnifisent" (as if they were driving it) and it doesn't say estimated anywhere, except for the Hp and tq numbers and they say manufacturer estimate.

So I'm pretty sure they actually drove one.

I don't have a scanner, but I'm sure someone else on here gets C/D too, that has a scanner.

Maybe they'll post it up.
