I'm in Orlando, VSR is in Tampa. I think it's the 1.5 looking at the filter system. GTM sent only one filter, the stage 1 has two filters. There's gotta be another issue.

compression test?

Edit: that would explain low power but not low boost pressure, hmm...

Car has less than 14K miles...compression better be spot on.

Z eliminator

How many miles have you driven the car with the SC on it ?

LOLOLOL............................none

Haven't even gotten it back yet and no idea when I'll get it.

not to be a ****, but, I have read nothing but terrible things about GTM here for the last year. I would highly recommend selling your Z and going with a C7, YOU WONT REGRET IT.

Plus, on this big old V8, you look at it wrong and it makes 500wheel.

Listen man I dont know what exactly you were expecting as far as final numbers but for the money you spent I would have gone with a good turbo kit.. There are plenty of threads out there now that have alot to say about gtm so its not like you didnt know...

Infidel

I've gone through this several times in multiple threads already but I'll do it one more time to get you up to date. I came on the 370Z scene a little over 13 months ago. Read plenty of thread/reviews and did some test drives of various vehicles and decided on the Z. I liked everything about the car except the power but thought I could deal with it, a short time later I figured out I couldn't. At that time I decided to go SC and there were only two choices. I read some threads and quickly realized Stillen was OUT, that left only GTM. Another member on this forum pointed me towards the MHI kit that GTM was getting ready to introduce. I thought WOW...$6K shipped, that's great. Everybody was talking positive about it and a lot of people were signed up, so much so I was #80. I believe at that time even YOU were talking positive about GTM.

There's not one manufacturer or shop that doesn't have negative feedback in their history and I should have done a better job of resarching GTM's history but forum heavyweight's like SPOHN had signed up for the MHI and talking very positive about it so no red flags were hitting me over the head. The only other TT options I had were GTM, Greddy and FI which were both more expensive and/or not out yet or not on the shelf and had to be produced. The singe turbo option were BP and VSR but at that time EVERYONE was jacking GTM and their unborn MHI kit so that's where my focus was. With my limited budget I made my choice and went with the MHI.

Last December I got tired of waiting and changed my order to a 1.5 SC since Sam already had $6k of my money it was a quick decision to go with a product that has already been produced. As far as numbers go I don't know what you've been telling Bobby but you have not done any research as to the HP capabilities of this kit. This kit with the 88mm pulley gets 500 on a regular basis, only one of the three finished builds on this site was in the 480's and that was due to a fuel problem. Jon at Z1 has done multiple builds that have gone past the 500 mark, even Baer got like 513 with completely stock exhaust. Stage 1 kits get close to 450. My expectations are nothing more than what most people have gotten, I've paid full price for the kit and am paying full price for the install I expect nothing less in return.

Joepro

Unless I missed it your sure its the right pulley or we know it is not? The numbers are right in line with that boost pressure on the FI finished build thread, if everything else is correct another 2 psi would get you to where it needs,to be.

It wouldn't be unthinkable that they included the wrong pulley.

I heard from bobby that they re-dynod it and it made the same power. At this point I would enjoy your boosted z and hope and prey you will not need anything from gtm later..

Chuck33079

If it's the wrong pulley I'd assume you could get it from the manufacturer. Is it a Vortech or Rotrex?

Understood man and I am on your side here but I wouldn't blame bobby for your loss of questionable hp. Different cars, dyno's, etc. I hope you get it worked out..
Just curious but is the break-in period in the gtm instructions for the compressor??
