Default Supercharger Interest

I come to you guys and gals to see how much interest there would be for a Supercharger kit. For now just doing centrifugal type "not roots" for now. I own a company that is manufacturing supercharger kits for vehicles that don't actively have a kit being produced. My goal is to produce affordable horsepower. There are kits available for some vehilces that are WAYYY to expensive for what you are getting. They are in the $3000-$6000 range. Thats outrageous. All of my kits are designed to be affordable and reliable. Most of them being in the $1200-$2200 the median being $1500. So this is why I am here asking you, are you interested??? I am not using the forum as a marketing tool or using the forums for bad intentions. I have a ranger, I love offroading, playing, informing and participating. I am just trying to get a feel for interest in producing a kit. I don't want to put a bunch of money out in R&D if no one wants the product.

This is basically what would come with a kit

*Vortech, Procharger, Raptor or Powerdyne supercharger
*Intercooler piping to route the air (added price if you want a intercooler)
*HKS SSQV blow off valve
*Supercharger mounting plate
*Tensioner pulley
*Serpentine belt
*Cone filter
*All of the necessary bolts,spacers and tubing.

Speed Trendz. Right now we are working on the site getting ready to release a kit and some other stuff. The company making our brackets for the supercharger can make lots of stuff. The man made his own stadium style monster truck so he can make anything. If you need something we can have it made for you. Here is an idea of a project. I dont have a pic of his truck but here is a all track celica with a big block and custom roots style supercharger with well you can see for yourself

Also, hoping there are some upgrades available, over just a "bare-bones" setup.

I would rather pay some more money for added features or options...assuming everything is top notch.
