I guess thats why I was liking the GTM over Stillen cuz they used tried and true methods like a FMIC that I know works good compared to a new designed IC that IMO still has to prove itself. It looks good but I know a regular FMIC works great. If my bid for a GS LS3 vette falls thru in the near future then it will be the GTM kit for me.

Well there are many factors, Stillen is using a modified Uprev tune, different superchargers, different designs, etc.

Your are making a lot of assumptions and spreading alot of missinformation all over the board. read and research before you post. We are all using the same Uprev software,the same tools just different tuners and level of experience .

Was going to post our instruction in this thread, it is a very detailed long document that can benefit anyone who's attempting force induction on his car. It does include the ecu mapping software details, Will just provide a link.

Sam the instructions are very impressive, nice work. Is each S/C kit going to be shipped with a printed hard copy of the instructions.

LateralG,

With forced induction, you are looking to elevate your wheel horsepower (obviously) by cramming air into your cylinders. Your wheel horsepower target is dependent upon a required air mass flow rate and the PSI needed to reach that flow rate. This is why people need to run certain boost pressures to make certain power levels. By adding headers, you improve the volumetric efficiency of your engine, in turn making your engine more efficient at inhaling and exhaling air and exhaust gasses respectively. If your engine is more efficient (see volumetric efficiency) in this regard , then the needed boost level to reach your horsepower goals is less since your engine can make more out of the given mass flow rate of air.

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

so stage two or three should reach 500WHP since that is BHP advertised? Maybe?

You keep quoting the wrong information, reread his post. One is from the early development thread and the other is from the actual press release. You keep quoting the development numbers.

ok now i'm confused.

When you go to GTM's site there's 2 choices for the SC, stage 1 (500bhp) and stage 2 (550bhp). Are these both the C38-61 compressors with just different pulleys and tune?

So I take it the 71, 81 and 91 compressors are not yet available?

If I read it all correctly, the housing is the same but it has different internals between stage 1 and stage 2.
