If history is any indication we could still be another month or 2 away from an official release...so pace yourselves lol. GTM announced the TT kit in 01/09 and said it should be wrapped up in 30 days or so...official release was 09/09. Just saying...

For the amount of power/torque we are making @ 8 psi and the timing tables we're running, i would feel comfortable running more boost .

Is 8 psi gonna be what you guys are running for the CARB-legal version or is that already the race/higher boost version? Also, which trim Rotrex are you running with the G?

Our goal is to reached the 500 BHP mark which translate to 425 RWHP with our stage 1 supercharger. Currently we are testing our custom housing on the supercharger and we will continue to play with the pulleys and housings until we reach our goal which we should be there today .

As for the carb kit psi and power outcome it is premature to say right now.

I'd say 10psi is the limit and it can definitely be done safely. Sam, you guys are doing great! Keep it up! By the time you guys get around to advanced tuning I should have a full exhaust and clutch/flywheel done awaiting a blower!

I think Sam himself said earlier in this thread that 9psi is actually conservative on 91 pump gas with the right tune. Scaling the numbers up, 9lbs should put down about 425whp...which is the magic number in my book (~500bhp!)

Hi Sam was that the SC oil cooler mounted on top of bumper crash bar?
Did you have the air filters hooked up to the intake on the SC?
