Let me know if any of you have heard about this. Looks sometime in the near future this might actually be an option!!

Nothing new, it runs on coils and you use it like nitrous. It does work.

Thomas Knight's website:

Looks like kits start at $1300 and he's using a Vortech/Paxton style SC rather than the Eaton in that article.
