Where's your 500 WHP graph?
I only see 482 PS to the wheels, which is like 475 WHP.
Far from 500 WHP if you are using this graph to make such claim... Just FYI
I've always wanted to hear one of these superchargers on the dyno... Do you have a video of it?

That car has a catalytic converter and nice exhaust. It is also tuned on pump gas since it is a street car.
The destroked k24a can rev to 9500 RPM easily. I think the 500whp claim is reasonable. He is making 482whp at 8700 with the fuel pump being close to getting maxed out.

Those Rotrex systems are great. Does each system have the same type of gearing for the compressor or are they specific for the motor?

482 PS = 475 WHP. You can round up and claim 500 WHP, that's cool and all since it's just a number, but I am pointing out that PS is not HP so you won't make a mistake on the units in the future
Any videos of any sort (dyno, driving around, track, etc)?

Well, I don't have much of an opinion regarding what you plan to claim power-wise and how much you rounded up, but 482 PS is not 482 HP. Just FYI. It's different unit of measurement for power in case you haven't noticed.

So for the cars in your sig you are using whp? Why didn't you use the PS unit? :p
Rotrex is a company that is based in Copenhagen, Denmark. In the USA Oscar Jackson jr and skunk2 created kraftwerks that makes kits for certain cars with the rotrex chargers. Some kits are complete and some are basic kits where the owner has to fab all the piping , intercooler, etc etc.
Back to the car, it is easily a 550whp motor but the owner wants to make it last as long as possible so the revlimit will stay at 8700 for a while.

I am not sure if you understood North American english (just making sure), but it seems like you didn't quite get what I am trying to say here.
1 Pferdestärke (PS) = 0.9863201 Horsepower (SAE HP)
You've mistakenly used PS as HP, and then rounded up the number to become 500 HP. But in fact, the car is 25 HP away from 500 HP. It's a huge round-up, and it's like saying my Integra now has "700 WHP" because it has 668 PS.
There's no real issues here, just pointing it out. I am just making sure there are no misunderstanding of language here.

car so far is running great and driven daily, going back on the dyno soon with better fuel system and higher revs.
About the dyno numbers, I now understand what you mean... I will post new dyno when it gets retuned.

Very impressive... I didn't know there was a shop like this in Athens or I would have paid them a visit when I was over there last fall
