Stay tuned.
So much awesome, great work on getting the kit done as this is the best news I have seen yet! Time to get serious about building up the car mod piggy bank.


How much work is it to install the new poly engine mounts?

Looking forward to see how this kit performs with GT-R manifold and VVEL tuning. Not to mention an exhaust and HFC's, test pipes, or headers.

So I'm guessing these results were from dixon's car. Was the FX37 used in the 370z's kit development, also were there 2 oil coolers in that vid?

Will this SC2 kit be required to change any stock material besides adding an oil cooler?

Congrats on the results Sam! 450WHP is what I wanted out of the S/C kit and now it looks like there is a clear path to get there. That TQ curve is phenomenal.

Are the dyno charts from the stage1 at 8lbs of boost?

How about a stage 1 @ 10psi if possible or a Stage 2 at 8psi to compare apples to apples...the way you have this comparison laid out doesn't make sense.

Because stage 1 is within its efficiency range at 8PSI and stage 2 is at 10PSI, it is designed to show you how a stage 2 kit can go farther than a stage 1.
Which is also why Sam said the stage 2 does not need a smaller pulley as it did not show any increase in power, similar with the stage 1.

It has more to do with the supercharger being maxed out ,and to much over lap. The stage 2 flows 11% more than the stage 1, if you compare the two dyno charts that Sam posted it adds up to that.
