Yes I do...

I hope to get some cams and some tuning...

I would love to put the HKS super charger on my car but dont have the $...

I will probably put some sways on my car sooner then later...

With the tilton I already have a very well performing car and very responsive and handles very well with the HKS Hipermax II suspension and the large wheels and tires...

I am very happy with my car

Jason, why choose an HKS supercharger over Vortex or Pro Charger? Also, what style of hood is on your avatar above your name?

that hood reminds me of the Scoot hood for the 3rd Gen RX7.

Hey Jason I am looking for 700+ tq at the crank. (4.3 stroker+200 shot+cams/springs) I was wondering if I will have to use the triple disk clutch just to hold the nitrous? if so what is the price diff and how much added rotational mass is it.

Thanks man hope to order mine soon.

You may need a 3 disc set up...

carbon carbon would work best on the street...

we can get a 3 disc cerametallic clutch...

and 3 disc sintered steel clutch...

i will get pricing for all the 3 disc set ups for you...

Is there any 1/4 mile times out there with just the Tilton setup?

Just curious if it really is that much faster.


If it is, then I'll buy it soon.

Thanks Jason I was lookin at the price on the carbon carbon and if i need to run a 3 disc setup I might not have enough for a three disc carbon but I will have enough for a 3 disc cerametallic.

I have done 1/4 runs with my tilton set ups... not the street disc yet...

if you look at my times.. the launch sucks.. (had to launch at idle because wheels would just spin otherwize) the acceleration is much faster then cars with stock or jwt / nismo flywheels

Default Engine Braking

I understand that engine braking is more pronounced with the tilton. Is this extreme to the point that if I were to lift throttle in stop and go traffic my passenger and I will get thrown forward into our seatbelts or is it more gradual that that?

Thanks...wishing someone in Central FL had one so I could see first hand.

they will not FLY forward but they will feel it more...

but only if you are in higher RPM's... if you are doing it and you are at like 2000 - 3500 RPM it is not going to be very hard engine braking...

4500 and higher... its like hitting the brakes...

Where are your times? Is the street clutch similar enough that I can get a ballpark of how quick this makes the car?

I'm just trying to kill time in between researching/saving for some sort of FI.

I picked my car up yesterday after having the Tilton installed. I'm going to the strip on Saturday. I'll post a review then. I've got the 3.9 final drive as well and the car pulls like a monster in 1st and 2nd gear.

I posted my times somewhere... It was with the rally clutch which is on off... not like the street where you can launch at a higher RPM since you can feather it a lil bit...
