so excited about the supercharger results. The supercharger just seems like a better fit for these engines to me. I keep checking back every hour, I can't help myself.

The funny thing is that I don't even plan to go with FI. Don't have the 100k+ annual income to justify getting one with no actual need besides I WANT IT.

Between 0-3500 rpm there isn't much oomph is all. A super charger would fix this more then a TT for sure. Obviously if you are looking for high RPM HP increases then that is out the window. Thats why I said in my opinion, I would prefer to see a kit that would show me gains on my daily driving rather then a kit that would only really really shine on the track.

The possibility exists that in the 0-3500 RPM range this kit won't add all that much oomph either just because it's a centrifugal supercharger and not a roots or twin screw type...

I'm just hoping that with a kit like this and the same tuning we saw in this thread (and I have no idea what kind of tuning it was but damn holy torque balls..) GT Motorsports: GTM Stage 1 TT Tuner Kit, GTM 3" Cat Back, 583RWHP/532RWTQ then this kit will fuckin rock!!!



Give us a SC Kit with 450RWHP/RWTQ!!!

Possibility being the word. I'm pretty sure the Torque curves on the dyno will prove other wise.
