Default HKS Super Charger Installed "WOW"

Well, finally got it done last weekend and I had to make a post as I was so impressed with this kit All the components are spot on and built with OEM quality, finish and look. I have done tons of mods to vehicles over the years and never have I worked with such high quality components and never have I finished an install turned the key and the unit ran perfect from the start with zero tweaking ! Now to the performance, the motor runs better than it did as an NA, idle is smooth with no oscillation like stock, gas mileage on the highway is great but when you have your foot in it of course it burns fuel. Power is very linear and is really strong in the mid band and the car feels fantastic, I put on Nismo rims with Toyo T1S tires and they are getting the power to the ground nicely. I am right there with my buddies 04 Z06 now and I just waxed my other buddy in his new Audi S4 (340HP V8). Sound is great, combined with my Stillen exhaust the sound is intoxicating like a race car. I was amazed how much better the exhaust sounds now with the SC. I give it a 10 out of 10, I can't stop driving the car

I tried to get a price quote yesterday and the firm said that the HKS kit was on hold
Quote
those have been put on hold for bugs they are working out. I have other 350Z SC kits in stock though!
Do you know anything about that?
