To Shumby

I spoke to Sam last night for 45 min at 11.00pm. I reminded him that you sent him a "PM".
He recevied it but has been too busy to get back to you. He has been up to many late nights working on the SC. He told me that he will get back to you ASAP.
I did not forget you, "my fellow Canadian "
Did you see the Hockey Game.
Canada 3 USA 2
2010 Olympic gold metal Champions.
It was madness here in Toronto last night.

Thanks for looking out for me. lol

Ya the game was stressfull. I got to see it but all in russian. lol Made $50 off of it too so it was all good.

Sam, congrats. I think you're doing the community a service with this pricing, so thanks for digging deep and making it affordable...

some more questions:

- I'd really like to see the weight of the components listed out... what is the net weight change for someone pursuing each kit stage? we can do the math ourselves if you give us component weights

- I agree with the comment about the oil filter... that scares me, my car is lowered and I bottom out all the time at the track... with a sandwich plate, this thing is going to strike the filter to ground, which can only be bad... can you redesign that adapter and move it up a little ?

thanks

Thank you

We are very exited to be able to offer two serious force induction solution for the 370Z .

The net wight of the kit is about 70 pound, i would need to confirm that for sure but i know I'm not that off .

As for the oil filter adapter, it is not lower then the sub frame of the car and it can be moved up as well . so no concern there .

Sam

and a pissing match ensues..

initialgemini · 03-01-2010, 01:00 PM

wow. This kit looks amazing and the dyno looks great. I would definitely like to see some performance measures on the road. Also, for us Cali people, having a carb legal kit would be awesome!

DannyGT · 03-01-2010, 01:12 PM

Yes, lets try to keep the press release clean...Do that on the other thread.

Anyway - SAM, thanks for taking the time to speak with me today. I know I had alot of questions, so thanks for answering them.

Cant wait to see the rest of the updates!

Buddy Revell · 03-01-2010, 01:29 PM

Yeah, complaining incessantly about a technical discussion about turbochargers (which definitely relates to how centrifugal sc's work), then instigating trouble and posting nonsense pics on these threads. Ridiculous.

RCZ · 03-01-2010, 01:39 PM

About that....

thegraylady · 03-01-2010, 02:16 PM

so how do i bhuy one who will install it for me in new york and i have automatic any extras

shumby · 03-01-2010, 02:21 PM

might need a valve body up grade and a tranny cooler. but you should wait to hear what SAM has to say. Myself I am going to get an oil and tranny cooler. plus the valve body upgrade. might not be needed but nice to have. really depends on what you are planing to do with the car.

kdoske · 03-01-2010, 02:31 PM

I'm really confused at how an oil cooler setup is supposed to hook up with the filter relocation of this kit. Anyone have any ideas?

I will answer all these questions shortly, just need to catch up with some dyno work .

jmlenz · 03-01-2010, 02:56 PM

Holy crap Sam! $5k!!!!!!!

Like someone else said, GTM hit it out of the park on this one!

You just swayed me and will most certainly be earning my FI dollars! I have several questions as well...

1) Does the $5k intro price apply to all trims or is that just Stage 1?

2) Price for GTM inhouse install?

3) Why 2 intake filters when the SC only has one inlet?

4) Same questions as others regarding oil filter location/clearance?

5) An oil cooler is a must, where would one fit into this setup?
