You guys must be running mad vacuum, dawg.
It's true. My vacuum is greater than yours...GTM = Dyson, Stillen = Dirt Devil.

But seriously, if you had to take a guess, by closing up the valve, how much would your charger pressurize the system too, at say, idle...?

It doesn't. This isnt a positive displacement sc, its a centrifugal, it builds boost like a turbo. At idle, without load, it will not make boost. Yes its spinning, but so are turbos at idle, its not spinning fast enough to make any kind of boost, in fact the engine is probably taking in more air naturally than the sc is pumping at idle.

I wasn't trying to be a smartass, I was just saying that the Stillen SC uses the same valve, on the same car, on a similar system and so its the closest thing you guys have to compare with. Just trying to narrow down the search for you, believe it or not.

My car does NOT flutter at all.

Any new GTM installs out there now that the intake pipe has been fixed and has been available for a few weeks? Anyone get their GTM kit to break 390 whp? Anyone able to get more than 6 psi boost with the new pipe?

Thanks for the updates!
