Included with Stage 3 is the GTM Flash, as well as the complete GTM spec 2.5" cat back,Designed for N/A/Supercharged use but suitable for mild turbo charger applications. Features full stainless steel construction with a high polished finish.And Our GTM Supercharger Turn key kit .
it has a list price for the supercharger of $5390 may not be the same kit though

Looks like they just bumped the price to $7390 on the website. That wouldn't be too bad if that was installed price, don't need the CBE.

I think anything over 7k is going to kill their sales... you can TT for a little more... The supercharger was supposed to be the cheapER FI solution.... Im sure to most a 1-2k difference isnt cheaper....

Read the page people. $7390 includes the stage 2. Minus the stage 2 option is $5390.

Well that depends on what's included.. that price of 7300 had an exhaust included in it which the TT kits don't ever include so thats an extra 1.5k ontop of the TT kit cost.

TT kits cost 15K on average so it seems. I don't think this kit will cost anywhere near TT costs even with the upgraded clutch and exhaust options.

Anyone that would pay 15k for a TT kit is either 1 an idiot or 2 an idiot.... They werent even that much for the 350z... I can guarantee that same 15k TT kit costs about 3500 to 4500 in parts at the very most..... I can see a decent markup but robbing someone blind because its a new car is just wrong....

The reason people are paying 15k for a TT setup is because to run a a good/solid TT setup you should upgrade the exhaust, oil cooler, etc. Most kits are being sold for about 10k, but it is highly recommend you pick up some supporting items to help.

Exactly Dreamer. People forget about labor and support mods. You might also want an electronic boost controller with those TT kits, heavy duty clutch, gauges.
