With that being said, i think this would be the thing for my AT Z.... In for Results!!

Why cant people be more patient! At least it seems the AT is getting some love finally!

I give up... Ducati 848 Evo here I come....

If i see my stealth stage 2 SC , GTM traction control before September of this year it will be a miricle. i gave up calling Sam.
I will be having my 7 AT built by another company.
Sam has just got my uprev lic. (please email it to me so that i can tune my N/A set up).
He is a very busy man. too many projects on the go .

Hang in there man I'm sure all your stuff from gtm will be good products in the end.

If I may ask how come no turbo kit if I may ask since you have been waiting so long ?

I ordered and paid for it Feb 16, 2010. I like the SC better. I have a modified stillen Sc on my 2003 and it does not make a lot of power but up to 140 km/hr it just goes like stink. The sound of the blower at 7100 rpm @10 lbs boost is increadable with the radom cats.

I understand the stage 2 unit should be a nice unit. If I had to guess I would say it will be 450whp +. I cant wait to see the results of the kit when it comes out.

This makes sense, but what is it about the STG 2 blower that requires so much re-work? It doesn't seem like the STG 1 kit is making a lot of compromises in terms of air flow, cooling capacity (intercooler), etc. Is the new SC substantially different in configuration (e.g. compressed air exit)? I'm all for a well thought-out kit (and you finding me a car BTW), I'm just more interested in what the design considerations are.

There's two different philosophies behind the two different stages. The stage 1 kit was intended for the ultimate performance enhancement without having to change anything on the car, meaning it will bolt up without any major modifications. As we all know, it is a very tight engine bay and putting the supercharger in the bottom was not the easiest way of doing things. It has been accomplished nonetheless and the kit is performing very well. So I wouldn't call that a compromise.

On the other hand, the stage 2 kit is going to be balls out and offer the best performance we can squeeze out of the c38-91 blower. With doing that, the stage 2 kit will be getting different motor mounts, different intake, intake piping, fuel system. It's designed for big power. I hope that makes sense.

**** ya!

I'm assuming you meant **** yeah! the "ya" brings a totally different feel to your message. :D

so where is the stage 2 located? still in the same place?

balls out performance, sign me up :tiphat: no homo, lol

Same place with different motor mounts.

So will reliability be an issue from the added power in the stg.2 kit? Or can the stock motor still be able to safely handle said power? Thanks for the updates Sam - future customer
