Nicely done, enjoy it. I do agree that the interfooler is damn small ... i'm currently looking into upgrade options myself. Thicker and wider at least, I'd prefer to keep my bumper beam.

Great footage of the whole process, really enjoyed looking at the install. Thanks for bringing the car by for us to tune Trent. Enjoy and be safe.

Yeah its not a bad install at all if u have a little basic know how. This car is a BEAST. I know its not a 600hp turbo setup but still more power then traction lol.

how does it sound? I want a turbo for the sound, but would rather run a sc because of the reliability.

In a 5AT you dont get the blowoff sound like a MT, but the SC whine is pretty awesome to my ears ^_^
Sounds like a little jet, exhaust drowns it out anywhere above low rpms though

+1 you can't hear it at WOT and driving on the highway with the windows up.

ahhhahah man i NEVER even use the 700whp setting. Its useless. To be honest i never even put it on high boost (pump gas setting).
I remember when i first supercharged my maxima, i was giddy as hell. The vortech is really a cool setup IMO and very reliable.
