At 8PSI and around 400HP that is correct, so this means you have the wrong pulley for your kit and need to get the correct one. I would say you can call GTM and try to get the correct pulley out of them, or you can contact rotrex directly and see if they know what part number you need and where to source it.

Excellent advice and always the best route to ask the manufacturer. Most mani's give excellent service and are a wealth of information.

It's an 88mm/11 lb pulley confirmed by Bobby.

So since you have all the right parts one would assume you have an install/tune issue or a defective charger right?

Bobby put some miles on it and the car is on the dyno right now hitting 11 psi

Should have some new numbers in a few minutes

1slow370 05-03-2014 04:09 PM

now hitting 11 or not hitting 11?

1slow370 05-03-2014 04:11 PM

SO they did send you all the right stuff, and it was an issue of the shop not following instructions on the charger break in.

I think it was a combonation of break-in and timing. Bobby said the timing was ony at 15-16 deg. He's taking it to 20

ETA....Baer's timing was at 24 deg when he pulled a little over 11 lbs @ 515hp

Glad to hear it working out for you!

Final numbers are 499/377

I am so numb right now I have little to no emotions about the numbers. I just want to pull up in my driveway from the drive home from Tampa without any holes in the block or hood. I'm so done with this. Turns out it was leaking boost from some coupler/clamp, don't ask me to elaborate because it was explained to me over my cell phone and sometimes sentences get garbled. I appreciate everyone's help and patience with my whining. I defenately have learned to be more patient and not to go off ranting when I should of waited for more info. This whole situation took me to the edge and nobody should have to go through what I did, it was F*CKING RIDICULOUS. My first mistake was going through GTM. In the end they finally came through with some help from Pablo and a certain forum member, I think without my persistant b*tching and the help from these people I would had to wait a lot longer.

Sam was helpful at times. I think he has great products but he certainly doesn't have his sh*t together. I would have went with a single turbo from either BP or VSR if I had it to do all over again. Hell, I would have a slightly used C6 Z06 if I could go back far enough. Hopefully I will have years of enjoyment from this set-up and no more drama inbetween. Hopefully I won't be a stupid azz and put it in a ditch with my new found power or get a speeding ticket, although I can get out of most tickets ;). Dreamer, I'll have a list of mods for you soon so you can add me to the finished builds.

BTW...I hope I'm not sceaming victory before I get her home :ughdance:

Congratulations man rest easy now...

Biggest reason why I hate boost are air leaks. I had to check all the time!! You might want to make yourself a tester from here on out and test regularly. If the installer didn't test along the way I feel bad for you.

Sebring isn't far from you (NASA is there June 21-22nd) and you would have the fastest 370Z there since I'm usually the only one there. It's a great way to get to know your cars true power without getting in trouble! I can get in the 130s in the back straight with 100 less whp, you can't do that often on the street without getting in trouble.

I originally planned on something good for 2nd and 3rd gear romps with occasional and short term 4th gear throttle. My job depends on me having a license, however, I've been getting away with a lot in the last 17 years.

So when are you going to pick it up?
