GT Motorsports: 370Z Supercharger system development

Any good SDS kit will come with everything needed to begin boosting ASAP, turbo on the other hand, is a different story. BTW, my friend Alex's Vortech V5 kit on

Any good SDS kit will come with everything needed to begin boosting ASAP, turbo on the other hand, is a different story. BTW, my friend Alex's Vortech V5 kit on his 350 cost $5600 installed, 8k? really? No sir, not at all realistic. If this kit costs over $5500 alone, my business will be directed elsewhere, Stillen, Vortech, etc. A Supercharger is supposed to be a good way to boost for considerably less, with 8k, i'll build my own TT kit.

Have fun!! Let us know how your custom TT kit goes and be sure to post your gains and some pictures when your done...

Don't forget to get a huge piece of paper for your garage floor, as your 370z will be quite a beautiful paper weight parked right over it over the years it takes to make the custom TT kit functional.

I hope you sane fellow members understand my sarcasm.

You skipped over where he said he would go with a competing kit (assuming they costs less) and instead commented on a passing comment about building his old TT kit.

I said I could build my own TT kit for 8k, hell, even less. (This means putting together the parts for the kit, not bolting it up). Of course I would never consider it because TT's are neither reliable or practical. Back on topic please.
