Ninja-Z, what gauges did you add for the install of the HKS?
People with F/I kits usually have 3 gauges, Boost, A/F ratio and EGT.
HKS is a kit which is already finely tune out of the box and not meant for tuners to mess with. So I would say at least get a boost gauge.

I want F/I so bad.....I an currently looking to get the HKS Ti exhaust installed, was also wondering if the HKS SC would be affected by the exhaust, or if I keep the stock cats, and do HKS exhaust, will it work fine, and perform better maybe?

Okay, now that's what I want to hear about. HKS vs. Vortech on the above listed items and "stuff that is kinda important".

Should I start a new thread? I'm not meaning to hijack this one, but it got me to thinking so I posted it here.

Reaper,

Nice video and good dyno numbers. What does the first curve represent where you make 308rwhp?

I doubt there is enought information on the subject to require its own thread. He has only had the hks for less than 2 weeks and the only other person I remember that had it had to remove it cause he had so many problems. Wait a bit for a few more people to drop the cash on the hks kit and then im sure we will have grounds for a good comparison.. Hope that helps James....

NINJA Z-your 2 dyno's one is just the s/c the 2nd run with higher #'s is with the N-tercooler right? On your 13.1 @ 110-111 runs, are you using the N-tercooler for those runs? Nice car, cool video.

Thanks. I can't wait...will probably drop the cash on a Vortech. Single turbo has got me pumped up too, but those are also too new and not for the G35 yet, right?
