Oh you have no idea!!! Thanks to our close relationship with NISSAN this is actually a pre-production press car, which means it has had a rough life. You should see the driver's side, stone chips EVERYWHERE!!! This was actually one of the cars that they used for a lot of their testing and media track events. The paint is pretty rough but everything else about it is nice. I'm hoping to convince Steve to let us stick it in the paint booth and respray the whole thing soon.

Do you have a lightweight 19 that you would recommend? Shoot me a PM, we're always interested in talking...

Well he's admin/critic of the year, what he says goes.

On Another Note:
Are we going to get some more media on the SC? Did we ever get avg. intake in temps??

Except of course he is correct - I for one am reading this thread to hear about the topic of this thread. But that's just me, I guess.

As we've said before we aren't going to release any specific data on this subject because there is no possible way to answer it. Intake air temperature does not have an "average." There are way too many variables such as ambient air temperature, RPM, and much much more...

What we can say is that during our testing at El Toro we were extremely pleased with what we saw. We saw temperature drops of well over 100 degrees post intercooler. And, during our heat soak testing we saw the temperature decrease rapidly once the car started moving again. As I've explained before, we put the car through a torture test to build as much heat as we could, parked it for ten minutes to let that heat soak into everything, then fired the car back up and performed a 0-140 MPH run. We were VERY pleased to see how quickly the intercooler coolant temperatures dropped as soon as we started moving again.

I would think you could tell us what the temp was before the IC and after just so we can see if the before temps were on par with the amount of heat put out by othe FI systems. 100 degree drop is good but only if the before temps werent overly high to begin with.

For me, still being undecided which kit to get, the amount of cooling the two different ICs do is very important to my decision. I will be asking the same from the other kit too.

I've got video, but haven't uploaded it from my camera yet. Biggest thing you can hear is the nasty compressor surge on the decel. If someone wants to try and host it for me, PM me w/ an email and i'll try to send it over later tonight.

Now that you mention it, I don't remember seeing a blow off or bypass valve on the charge tubing. If there isn't one, that's going to be an issue.

For the recirculating valve, they are using the same Bosch valve that Vortech uses in all of their standard production kits.

There are some nice upgrades available if you are planning on higher boost levels though...

That's correct!

You can't see it because it is mounted on the bottom side of the charge pipe.
