GTM Performance Engineering: VQ37VHR Twin Supercharger System-First Look

SS_Firehawk · 11-30-2012, 03:59 PM

SWEET BABY JESUS, I've just been blinded sided by GTM regarding this. Expect updates in the near future.

SharpByCoop · 11-30-2012, 04:02 PM

Please explain? Are YOU the next test vehicle?

Thanks,

Coop

Sounds like u got a deal u couldn't refuse!

SS_Firehawk · 11-30-2012, 04:16 PM

We'll see. Squaring away the details. I gave up on this idea, and when I least expected a reply, I was knocked out of my chair. I can't count how many time I changed my mind. This is final. I'm shaking with excitement. Someone find that blue shaking smiley! BTW, started a build thread earlier today, link is in my sig. This will fit well with the update process

I'll confirm when my vehicle is with GTM. They will probably have it a while as they hammer out the kit for the Z. I'm in no hurry. Won't be home for 9 months, so they have plenty of time to work on it as well as the many other projects they have going on. I'm seriously interested what my car does on a baseline on their dyno. It's about 1,000ft closer to sea level and cooler weather. My thoughts on my local dyno is it's more on the conservative side. My SAE numbers are 300whp, and I have a lot of work done to it. If it runs a similar number, it won't matter for long...

I'm not sure what all will have to be removed. I do know the AEM CAI will definitely need to. I'm pretty sure GTM will also remove the NST pulleys. I do not know about my oil cooler. It's a 72 row oil cooler. I'm not sure if they can move that middle bar to get it to sit closer to the radiator. I spent a lot of money on the oil cooler and prefer not to part with it. IF necessary to make things fit, I'll have to move up to GTM's twin 34 row. I live in Las Vegas, so cooling is near and dear to me

I wish I can get the traction control system they offer, but I'll hold off until I see how bad it is.

GTM typically does not like us to reveal the prices of the special deals they do with us. I along with others have been told not to talk about our pricing. I am sure SAM hooked you up like he has hooked many others up as well! Knowing Sam he gave you an amazing offer like he did me.

I agree

keep that between you and GTM.

SS_Firehawk · 12-03-2012, 01:18 PM

Talked with them, and we agreed to keep it between us. Because it isn't something they can do for everyone and this was circumstantial. So I'll respect their wishes on the matter. I also edited the previous post to further keep that confidential. Bullitt, can you edit the first couple sentences from your quote please

Also, my car is being transported later today. I'm asking My Wife to take some pics and a video of her going away. I did want to get pics of all the parts I just bought too, but the brake kit is supposed to arrive today and be on that truck. I also asked if they can send me the baseline dyno they take when they get my car so I can get a best case scenario of it's current state. I'm hoping they can get a snap shot of all the stuff they are throwing on as well. My journal is filled with too much text and not enough pics!

bullitt5897 · 12-03-2012, 01:42 PM

taken care of

SS_Firehawk · 12-03-2012, 03:11 PM

Transport delayed till tomorrow morning.

Mike@GTM · 12-03-2012, 03:29 PM

We got a call from the transport company and the car will be arriving tomorrow. We'll get a baseline done on our Dynojet and another baseline on our new AWD Mustang dyno that is coming in within the next couple weeks.
