a larger pulley to bump the PSI up to 8-10 and tune? doesnt seem that difficult to me. TT is more headache than its worth. Especially in the long run when you start having boost leaks, fuel supply issues, impeller wear, etc. It will cost far less to maintain a supercharger setup than anything involving a turbo. Less parts means less areas to troubleshoot if a problem occurs.

It is not just a simple upgrade the pulley and tune, that is one factor. You also have to calculate in the efficiency of the unit, engine capabilities, etc.

Your are right in way that the a supercharger system is simpler then a turbo system but also it does reach it's max output capacity much faster then a turbo system. Hope this help Sam Last edited by SAM@GTM; 08-08-2010 at 01:53 PM. |

Just checked, the stage 1 setup is rated up to 550HP (flywheel).

GT Motorsports: 370Z Supercharger system development
We are please to announce The GTM supercharger system Development for the 370Z . The GTM supercharged 370z project was under way back in the begging of the year . Since we are completely done with our twin turbo system development that was released last month, We will be focusing on the the supercharged system. We are committed and planing on displaying both of our force induction system Solution for the 370Z @ sema 2009 . Our GTM supercharger system will be utilizing the Rotrex C38 supercharger, The Key to the Rotrex supercharger's unique compactness, efficiency, low noise and reliability is its state of the art traction drive technology. Great speeds and low noise are just some of the advantages of traction drives over traditional gear transmissions. Traction drives transmit power through friction forces between its rolling elements. The Rotrex patented traction drive uses an elastic annulus with a small pre-span to secure contact between the roller planets and the sun shaft with a reasonable force. The patented "ramp effect" increases efficiency and reliability in the transmission by regulating the torque transfer capability on demand through self-adjusting planet geometry. To enhance performance, the Rotrex traction drive uses a special traction fluid. These fluids are a new family of synthetic hydrocarbon oils and greases offering a series of unique performance advantages. Developed specially for its use in Rotrex superchargers, the SX100 momentarily increases viscosity under high surface pressure, enhancing the traction drive performance by securing the optimum friction between rolling elements while cooling and protecting the system. This traction drive combined with the latest technology in centrifugal compression, characterized by high adiabatic efficiency and low noise, gives Rotrex superchargers an exceptional competitive edge over any other forced induction solution. The GTM Supercharger Will Have three different stages to offer Stage one will come with C38-61 Trim up to 550 HP Stage two will come with C38-71 trim up to 590 HP Sage three will come with C38-81 trim up to 630 HP Here is some pics of the the Rotrex C38-61 Go read SAM's Supercharger announcement.

That sucks sort of that each stage upgrade requires that you have to due all that work for more power. Stillen's SC compressor is rated to 700HP so all you have to due is change the pulley and tune to make the more HP and TQ not rebuild the kit.

A tune that isnt working right now. And if I was to go to 700 HP I would do a TT for that much power and get the tq with it.
