Sounds like someone is singing a new tune

Sam, could you talk about the first pic here? Obviously the second pic with the bigger blower is going to make more power, but what about just the different compressor/intake housing? How is that going to make more power? Would you be using a different pulley on the existing blower to go along with this? Or something different in the tune?

This option is offered to all the stage 1 Supercharge guys so they can extract a little more horse power out of the system, this is accomplished by implementing our Vband compressor housing design and our tuned air intake system for maximum performance with our 3" MAF piping, With this supplement kit, you will get all the parts needed to make the transformation with the option of implementing our GTM urethane mount on one side or both.

Below is the list of all the parts that comes in this upgrade :

GTM SC Compressor housing C38-81 V band type
GTM SC Pulley 92mm
GTM Power St Fitting
GTM Power St Hose
GTM Breather Filter
GTM Urethane Eng Mount
GTM 3" MAF Piping
GTM 3" Inlet Intake
GTM 4.5" Intake Filter
GTM Transition Couplers
GTM T-Bolt 3" V-band Clamp
GTM SC Belt
GTM Base ECU Map


Depending on Pulley size, We recommend the following

Bosch EV14 650cc injector upgrade
GTM Fuel Pump Voltage Stabilizer kit
Custom Dyno Tuning

Was there any update on the blown AT transmission ?

Hi Sam, I'm very interested in the stage 2 kit and have messaged you a couple of weeks ago but haven't had a response from you yet. Can you please get back to me. Thanks

You are much better off calling him ^^

I'll try to give them a call... Thanks

What happened to the Radiator pricing update and 7AT tranmission upgrade update?

We are rapping up Two cars in the shop in the next few days that have those mods, One with the 7AT upgrades and the other with Bigger Radiator. Once those cars are done will have the press release .

Sam

Yaayyy! I love it when you guys do press releases. lol

Thats what I like to hear Sam !!! :)

:tup:

what is the highest boost can this kit make, could it reach 600+ with a built block?

Any updates on the two cars that were finishing up with the 7at and radiator upgrades?

We can reach 15 psi without any issue, We are in the process of building A car that will have 11.0: 1 COMPRESSION, with a 4.2l Stroker engine, the goal is to reach 600 RWHP.

Sam

Both cars are done, The radiator is doing extremely extremely well, Given the amount of power and torque the car is making, Just have to find the time to finish the press release. Very exiting stuff.

Sam

whats the highest a 7AT has gotten with this kit? how does the transmission/torque converter handle the new load? O.o any incidents involving blown transmissions for a 7AT yet with this supercharger kit?

Cant wait!:tup:

+1

:happydance: can't wait to see that

It seems that at this point, the 7ATs start to fail once power levels reach the 500rwhp mark. No word yet on the effectiveness of the upgrades yet, once there are more upgraded 7ATs, we will be able to see how much power it can truly handle.

Out of curiosity, what information do you have to substantiate that 500whp is the limit? At this point, nobody really knows. So far there doesn't seem to be an exact number this transmission breaks at. There are a lot of factors that have a direct impact on an AT surviving forced induction.

I'm not ignoring Cafiax's post, just been extremely busy and I want to come back with a good detailed answer to address his question. Our 7AT upgrade press release is right around the corner and we'll address this in our press release.

It is based off of observations. Shumby and Andrew, those are my main reference points. I stated 500whp as the point where I would not feel that long term durability has been shown to be possible, based off of a few examples.

Since there has been no information released about the valve body upgrades and transmission PCM changes, I was trying to answer the poster's question to the best of my abilities.

Yes there is a whole story behind Andrews car transmission going out. I am really surprised he hasent said anything yet.

Which Andrew?

Jamaica.

Nissan took care of him, even with the SC they provided a warranty replacement.

Lol don't think id be soo lucky though lol. From what I hear though it wasn't because of the SC it was because of a lack of oil so that is great news. !

It would take some back and forth, I believe the burden of proof is on them to show that the SC put a strain on the transmission and caused the failure, a burden they will likely satisfy.

Lol so you are saying more times than not they would prob deny the claim right?

Yeah un-fkin-fortunately

On another note, hopefully we can get this 7AT press release this week!

Haha, I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw that either.

If you have a good dealership or can prove it was the not the supercharging causing the issue it will help.
I believe his issue was not supercharger related so he could argue replacement.

Which is interesting because it wasn't a Nissan tech who didn't fill the oil back. :ugh2: Kinda odd how they had to foot the bill for the replacement...

Well, IMHO the whole way they went about handling fluids for the 7AT is broken by design, so it's still their problem. At the very very least, they should have made it possible to accurately fill this transmission (by their own specs) without using a super expensive dealership-only tool. They could have done this with one of two minimal changes:

1) Delivered the AT fluid temp data on a standard OBD-II PID that any scanner can read, allowing the service manual directions to be followed by anyone, or:

2) Re-written the instructions to use some other piece of temp data, e.g. an IR thermometer pointed at the base of the pan after a certain warmup cycle while ambient temps are within a certain range.

It really bugs me that nobody but my dealer can officially even tell whether my transmission is filled to the proper level or not.

When is the press release for the radiators coming? Or there cost.

People love to speculate without knowing all the facts. A couple points I would like to bring up briefly.

First, the transmission was not low on fluid. Initially, they thought it was, but once they checked the fluid level and confirmed it was not low, that argument was invalid. For us, to ship a car without checking the fluid before it leaves is absurd. We are very thorough and know more about these cars than most techs at the dealership.

The second point, is that this transmission was not 100% when it came in. Just by looking at the condition of the fluid, we were able to determine that there was a potential issue and advised Andrew of the potential transmission problem. The transmission did work during and after the installation of the supercharger. As a matter of fact we were the one to send Andrew to the dealership to address the concern we had with the transmission. The Nissan tech came back with the nonsense story of the fluid being low. We got involved and shared the data we have on the transmission with Nissan and they took care of it. End of story.

There is a great amount of information that can be shared about Andrew's transmission that can help the whole community and we will be discussing these things in our detailed transmission write-up. So please be patient and stop speculating and coming up with stories.

I too want to know about the radiators... and Sam, I sent you an email, can check it out when you have a minute?

We will address this issue in great details in our press release, We will have a detailed guideline/producers of how to check the fluid on this trans, also we are working on producing a dipstick system to make the whole process much easier .
