I thought it was a GTM kit at first based on the first video but saw the HKS supercharger on the brace.

By some of the posts on the blog it looks like they have done some internal engine work, pistons & such.

that'll cost you another rep point for changing your mind. :tiphat:

there are tons of pics in that link of the entire kit and dyno numbers. great find!!!

Running two blowers, those numbers aren't that impressive. It's a really cool concept, but you have a major bottleneck with that intake piping. It looks like it goes from 2.25" - 2.75".

Just throwing it out there.. but this company was the only company to rep the 370z crowd at the past HKS premium day against companies such as Esprit and Pan Speed (which is saying a lot already) and is rocking a custom twin HKS supercharger setup making somewhere around 800ps. ;)

If you want more information about their setup, check out their blog here:

Can we buy that surge tank?!

Anyone notice the water temps in the track video? 114C is a bit scary.

Intake manifold reminds me of the 300ZX manifolds, with the balancer pipe. I wonder how well this works on our cars?

Stock manifold is balanced too. If you look in from one throttlebody flange, you can see out the other side.

This type of manifold separates each bank of cylinders though - instead of collecting all cylinders together like OEM. They used the manifold design on the 300ZX and the GT-R. The balancing tube was necessary to keep both sides at equal manifold pressures - if one side had more pressure, air would be shoved to the other side.

I believe the idea behind this design is for better airflow and swirl characteristics, versus a huge open box like ours. No sharp turns to deal with.
