Bottomline, when you got double of everything and you start pushing 500+whp, things will break quicker - and at those levels I rather just drag the damn thing. Its extremely hard tuning a NA vehicle to TT for a linear curve. Its exciting enough to take a car like this around a track and drive it smoothly, and with a SC I believe the power would be a bit easier to control around the bends simply because of a more linear curves. With a TT its quiet hard to take certain twisties only to have boost kick in hard and ruin the balance of the car around the turn.

...and this comes from a die hard turbo fan. I really do love em, but I love em more on a car that was designed for them from the factory!

Wheels look great on that color.

Supergoji · 12-14-2009, 09:16 PM

they can make all sorts of stupid power without anything breaking.

*sigh*

chuckd05 · 04-02-2010, 11:50 PM

at a local shop by me i see countless 350s in there more than they are out of there from TT setups...

Id love to supercharge my z too the TT seems a bit much for me as well ,

Mines a lease and I still dont know if I will be buying it out.. I didnt expect to love it as much as I do, now i regret my lease...

Your rims are sick!.. its hard for me to like wheels on this car and your wheels/suspension setup is perfect !

DannyGT · 09-04-2010, 07:38 PM

Quick update guys since its been awhile...

Supercharger arrived last week but I havent had time to do anything until this weekend. I uploaded a quick preview video of my initial impression and where I am at with the current tear down.

The install is being done by myself using the instructions per GTM.

DannyGT · 09-04-2010, 08:31 PM

My god, I sound retarded...

Sorry, I'm filthy and pulling an all-nighter with a friend of mine trying to get as much done as possible. I just came in shot the video and posted it, no editing, nothing. Anyway - let me know if you want to see anything specific or have any other questions...
