GT Motorsports: 370Z Supercharger system development

kannibul

500WHP = approx 625HP at the crank (assuming 20% loss)

Also, 390HP vs 332HP = approx 15% increase, stock for stock.

500HP at the crank vs 390HP at the crank is 22% increase - not sure if they designed it to handle that much?

Then what I mentioned - 625HP vs 390 = 38% increase

Nice work GTM, Good luck with the rest of the project, and keep us updated with the progress.

Kannibul, you forgot to throw in the weight difference in your math. The lighter 370z (compered to the FX) equal less stress on the transmission.

You're right, I did forget!

Going off raw numbers, 38% (plus a bit) over known output might be a lot to ask?

Either way, is it unlikely that a (this) supercharger kit could actually put out 625 at the crank, up from 332 - without blowing itself up during 100K miles?

I mean, anything is possible...if you have the money!
