My GTM Supercharger Review

fstrnldr · 12-28-2010, 09:17 AM

Personally after driving both the sc and tt cars, I can see a reason for both. Even if you take cost out of the equation (which is a huge part of that decision for a lot of people), the supercharger just feels right for some cars. Gives you that V8 feel basically, and I think for a G that's perfect, it subtle, doesn't scream this car was modified, and keeps the luxury sport theme of the G. Now the Z, is all ready a bit more flashy so a big visible IC and healthy exhaust note are a bit more at home to me for this car, but still that's not for everyone, which is what makes GTMs supercharger kit perfect for some people. Really hard to explain until you drive the SC car.

I like the linear powerband that's on the supercharger kit. I don't feel the need for 400+ ft-lbs. It's hard enough getting 350 on the pavement, let alone more. Besides, whichever option you go with 1st and 2nd are pretty much useless on street tires anyway.
