Design Concepts between 2020 &#8211; 2022 and finally released in 2023. Built out of air craft grade aluminum, the kit is based on the affordable Speedmaster P2 Centrifugal Supercharger, rated at 1150CFM and some 55,000 RPM ceiling from the manufacturer. The P2 Supercharger is a dry unit with no lubrication required. The Harbinger is a modern take to an reliable high performance solution for enthusiasts who want a compact and affordable centrifugal option for the BMW M50, M52, M54, S50, S52, S54 engines.<\/p>\n<p>The Harbinger is ideal for a daily street car as well as a car that sees occasional track use. Currently available in its 2nd generation, this setup features our custom machined COG pulley and machine belt drive ensures the supercharger itself maintains a fixed ratio, limiting the supercharger to 30,500 RPM maximum while utilizing the factory belt drive, which allows you to preserve all the original stock belt driven engine accessories as the alternator, power steering, air conditioner, all in their original position.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Includes:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><small>Complete Set of Brackets<\/small><\/li>\n<li><small>Adapter Bracket for Type 2 \/ New Generation Speedmaster P2 Supercharger (If ordered with kit)<br \/>\n<\/small><\/li>\n<li><small>Inlet and outlet piping for the P2 Centrifugal Supercharger<br \/>\n<\/small><\/li>\n<li><small>Custom COG Machine Pulley, Belt Drive<\/small><small> &amp;
