That's a complicated question/answer.

Again, I'd wait for Sam's post, he's done the most installs and has the most knowledge on the limits of this kit imho.

Sweet. From what Sam told me the G35 and 350z non revup kits are substantially different in piping and bracket. HKS def. did their homework on this one, and GTM certainly knows what they are doing

If you are really serious about this kit, I'd contact Sam @ GTM for more info.

Exactly, Im not an expert by any means, Sam's post will be the one to watch. I can just say that so far Im very happy with the results

Please post your impressions and pics when u get the car back; very interested to see how the kit turns out on a g35 (Sam tells me the kit for the g35 puts the intercooler higher on the G than on the 350z due to differences in bumper design and air flow, and the bracket is different as well, etc.)

Default hks gt supercharger installed by gtm

Just picked up my 04 automatic g35 coupe from GTM today. I had an HKS gt supercharger installed on a bone stock engine with fujitsubo legalis y pipe and cat back. I am keeping the supercharger completely stock with stock pulley. stock power was 224 rwhp with 213.4 tq and in today's 98 degree ambient temp it made 300.5 rwhp with 295.9 tq. Feels great and has more tq at lower rpms than I had anticipated. Also the supercharger is quiet. I'll keep it stock for now but there's room for more power with a pulley and few mods down the road

One question: Where is the MAF located? Doesn't appear to be a draw-through setup, and it's not in the 'usual' place (charge piping directly before the TB).
