We are officially done with the 370Z supercharger kit. We will be installing all the final production parts next week and we will be on the dyno for tuning. Shortly after that, we will start offering our in-house install packages while we are getting these self install kits ready for shipping. The CARB certification process has been initiated and the time frame for completion is up to them. As for the final finished product pictures, they will be produced with the dyno graph and dyno numbers. Let me just say this: The kit looks AMAZING!!! Totally OEM looking.

In the meantime, here's a cool video we released last night:

Just be ready for the first supercharged 370Z in the world by GTM.

Maybe even a VQ35HR right after that.... MAYBE.... BIG MAYBE.... Hopefully the 07'-08' guys/gals have something developed for them if this kit ain't compatible

Great work GTM. Great work!

We updated the video to HD, so here's the new version as the link in your post doesn't work anymore.

Do you have any affilliated companies in El Paso or close to there that we will be able to get a kit from and have them install it?

i'll be honest with you bro, there isnt a tuner shop here thats worth a shyt city wide, however there is a shop in Las Cruces, NM about 45 minutes north that does outstanding work, i'll hook you up with details when you get here.

shabarivas · 01-15-2010, 06:48 PM

Looks like you guys have an AWESOME shop - so can you PM me details on when CARB etc are going to be expected? I am debating between your kit and stillens - let me know

Okay, I have been following this thread for a while now and as your kit nears production I have to ask a couple of questions. When the 350z first came out and supercharger kits were hitting the market, the one that caught my eye was the HKS. It used the Rotrex supercharger, I liked it because it didn't have the high pitched whine like the procharger and the vortech. However the kit didn't stay on the market long as there seemed to be a problem with the rotrex unit, then HKS and rotex had a falling out, end of kit. Sam and Mike, have you heard this before and if so what was the problem and has it been corrected? I look forward to seeing your complete kit, more so than the Stillen, mainly because it appears that you are maintaining the dual throttle bodies in the factory positions. Purely for the symmetry, I think it looks better under the hood.

I don't know what happened between HKS and Rotrex, as I am not privy to that sort of information. However, Rotrex is a well known and respected name in the industry. Their products also carry a 2 year warranty. We are contemplating extending that to 3 years although that is not confirmed yet.

In regards to CARB certification, we do not have any control over that, and therefore, have no idea how long that will take.
