That must be nice. I would have to drive 20min to get the higher stuff. With using 98 you should be seeing at least 10WHP or more over what others are getting with 93. All I would wonder about is running higher than 93 all the time would it mess up anything. This is about the time the smart guys on here need to chime in.

His 98 is comparable to our 93 I believe.

i dropped down to the 9lb pulley
next i will look into going with a larger pulley on the backside the one that connects to the blower pulley that was vortech advice and of course the 928 impeller
and with a little meth injection she should be making some good power throught out the power band

RCZ loved his kit so much, he sold it about a year after.

He sold me his RE-11's, you think it says something bad about the tires? Or, maybe it has something to do with the fact that he wants an M3 and parted out his car.

Um Nismo, you aren't quoting the PM dyno are you? They have a very giving dyno, they know about it too and they'll tell you that their final numbers are not the point but rather the deltas when using their dyno for tuning purposes.

Since you posted before I could find the thread, here it is:

GTM Supercharger Stage 1 w/ F.I. LTH

No, you won't have issues you will just make less power. Do some research, a lot of us run full exhausts with FI and are still getting great numbers.

Thanx for the post , But that was about FI and headers.. Even Stillen on the website says not to run the kit with headers.. Not sure if that was before or after the guy blew his car up after installing headers on his car with the Stillen SC.
