Just call the shop or shoot me a pm and we'll get you set up. as for the install time will need the car for two days

PM sent sam awaiting reply

Damn, installing the SC kit must be easy...That's a good thing...

you can probably get 350ish at the wheels from bolt ons, I figure if you go FI especially on the new VQ motor you have to be seeing close to 500

Must be the lame VVEL

I'm still wanting to hear what 2Fast4TheLaw is hoping to get for his 5K damnit!!!

I would hardly call VVEL lame. Once the the ability to control VVEL becomes common knowledge I imagine most tuners would wish all engines had them.

Sent you a PM Sam.

... or it could be that there is no Haltech unit available for the 370Z yet...

350 to the wheels on bolt ons IMO is kinda high. Thats what 70 over stock? And the avg SC will be just above 400, for 500 from a SC you will have to run high boost and that could lessen the life of the engine a good amount. For 500 or more better go TT.

Maybe they wont be able to change the vvel much. I would think that it shouldnt be much harder than rewriting other programs I would think, but I could very well be wrong.

Hey sam, how much PSI to you think the rotrex unit can produce?

If this kit could produce 100 rwhp and it was 5 to 5.5 grand I would say it would be "acceptable". If it were 6500 or more than it would have to add 150 rwhp or close or otherwise most people are going to likely spend a little more and go TT or do nothing at all. I don't think I am alone here either, I suspect many others are still on the fence between a supercharger and a TT.

I have pretty much made up my mind on installing a TT kit. I am for the most part just lurking the supercharger threads out of mere curiosity.

I just posted my 2 cents! :tiphat:

I am not looking for a cheap solution, I am just saying if this kit costs 6000 grand or more and doesent deliver over 100 rwhp, it isnt going to sell.

5K just came to mind becasue when I had my 350Z I could have gotten a supercharger kit for 5K for a bit under 100rwhp gain. I am not trying to be a total dyck on here, I am just being realistic. Its simple economics.

less than $7000 + 450whp is what I'm praying for with supporting mods of course. Sure a TT will get you 500whp but not the gobs of torque the SC's will give you.

Ya, 532wtq at 3500 rpms sucks! :rolleyes: I want that S/C Tq! :tup:

Yeah, the right sized turbos can give the VQ pretty damn good torque. Greddy's 370Z TT puts out solid torque numbers even at a modest 6.5 lbs. of boost.

That's at 13 psi with 100 oct fuel...

Then 513 --413 91 oct....

Your also comparing one SC compressor to two TT compressors..... Twin turbos spool faster and creat less lag than a single turbo.If the TT only came with one Turbo then I am pretty sure the SC kit will dust it.... I asked sam how much PSI can the rotrex unit put out...I am pretty sure if it puts out 13 psi of boost, the HP level will be more than we need (probably close to a 9 or 8 psi TT setup)... Let me check out the SC dyno chart....one sec.

wrong sorry

The bigger problem is your conclusion relied on 2 cars launching at idle. That is not realistic.

Where is the price? I bet about 1/2 this forum is about to be disappointed.

Budakai, why would you imagine a TT kit with only one turbo? Why would you launch and/or land at 2750 rpms in a race?

Oh just stop trying. TT is for ballers. SC is for smaller balls! :tup: :roflpuke2:

So maybe I'm just completely wrong here but for about 15 years I have thought that TT was Twin Turbo... Now I'm sure its just me but wouldn't the phrase "TT" and "single turbo" not go well together in the same sentence...Please educate me here cause I am lost on some of the stuff that was said in the past few posts regarding "TT" and "single turbo"

So Kyle just dropped a bomb on the stillen setup, 400+ wheel horsepower with an auto G37, and the car is running smooth and efficiently, I think somebody needs to step up their game!

The edit button is your friend man...no need for multiple posts and clutter.

I just found the edit button...Sorry I wrote all this at 6 in morning... I was not running on all six cylinders yet....

400 rwhp will be great. 420 to 450 a dream come true.
Have any of you guys driven a 370 with 297 rwhp. I have and with 4.08 gears in a 7 AT its a terror.
Try launching the car and not spin the wheels in first or 2nd gear at the track. There is no tractkion on the stock 19 inch tire.
With my set up its going to go 11.6's at the track with the stage 3!
I just love all the negative remarks out here about both the GTM and the Stillen.
How many of you guys are actually going to buy a GTM?
I did.
Its going to be a stage 3 rotex with a few bolt on, and im going to heat treat a few of the parts so that intake charge is cooler.
Sam's working on it as we speak.
I told him that i do not need it till mid summer.
It will take some time as it is a very time consuming project on GTM's part. R&D takes a long time when you start from scratch.
From the progress that i've heard its going to be a very nice kit once he gets past a few minor difficultys.
Holding on to 370 with 500 hp, you guys better learn to drive or the car may have a short life span.
It will be way faster than a 350z
If any body with a stillen set up is in Ontario Canada at the Ontario Z Drag day at St Thomas Drag strip this summer. I would love to have a grudge match drag race with you.
The time slip and the lights and the end of the track will settle all the wonderful disscusion about which one is the faster and better kit.

Z Eliminator.

Not if the two drivers' skill levels are different.;)

Well Z Eliminator is also a crazy mofo who will probably be running slicks!

Just got the rims Volks T-37's
18 x 10.5 with 305, 35, 18. MT drag radials 11
There will be no traction problems.
And a speed force racing VB with 2900 stall torque converter coming soon .
(not sure if there will be a kit to fully build the 7 AT )
Im only a crazy ______ when i run my 350 with the GTM 4.2 , wolf 850 ttbb's with a Speed Force built 5 AT. The build is going nicely.
Still waiting for Sam to ship me the 3 inch exhaust.

Well that throws a monkey wrench into the idea of proving which SC kit is better with a drag race, unless the Stillen SC'ed Z you're challenging has the exact same supporting mods and is driven by someone with the same drag race skills you do.

Who cares about drag racing?

*runs and hides*

You don't have to, I'm kind of on your boat too.. The Z was never meant to be a drag car in the first place :stirthepot:

^ I agree, but its not about that. They are talking about acceleration here not about handling. There is no better place to test acceleration than the drag strip.

It doesn't matter what your dyno sheet says if you are still running 13's with crappy trap speeds.

You have a point :tiphat:

Our Friday night drags cost $20 to enter. That is cheaper and more fun than a dyno pull. The trap speed is what tells you the cars power level with the ET reflecting driver skill and available traction.
