I didn't know that supercharger installs took that long. Are you having any other work done to the car?

It's a 2 day install if the shop is working on it from open to close, or at least that's what I've heard.

Kinda how I feel with mine @ GTM haha. Though I admit mine is most likely low in their priority list as they will have my car for a loooooong time. There is no pressure to meet some pending deadline. Waiting for info is the worst! CG's OP, who is doing your work?

I'm also have a bunch of body work done, my body shop and mechanic are next door to each other. That is whats taking the majority of the time. New fenders, side skirts, splitter, sanding and re-clearing the whole thing too. They actually told me it would be ready a lot sooner. However, I say and expect 4 weeks, if it shows up early then I'm happily surprised!

Sounds good! You've definitely got the right attitude regarding the expected wait times.

Well I am excited myself this weekend I'm dropping of my G37 to have the GTM Twin SC installed @ RAD. Congrats to the OP though.

Nothing too fancy, VF fenders from Aerojacket, evo-r splitter, nismo s-tune side skirts. I was gonna go Zele but I'm holding off on that for a bit.
