Those brackets look exactly the same, even to the point that the non-revup bracket already has the holes cut out for the revup!

I've tried contacting GTM but they keep giving me the cold shoulder.

I am enquiring with GTM and MVP about this and possibility of shipping to Australia.

Cool. Please let us know what they say.

I contacted HKS Europe a while back and they said they think they are the same, but they couldn't confirm it 100%

Hopefully they are.

read here:

- the rev up engine has a MUCH better stock belt design than the non-REVUP kit. The REVUP kits come with different pulley diameters than the original VQ35 kit. They actually come with the 3.12 pulley as the stock pulley, but have different sized cog pulleys to reduce its effectiveness since the kit is designed to spin the blower up to 7000 rpms. Bear in mind I'll mainly be referring to the non-revup kits as far as pulley sizes go because that's what I have experience with

I believe theres the difference!

Also, who would be the cheapest vendor to purchase from?

Forged have it advertised on their site for $4,500.00

GTM don't list just a purchase price, only a installed price of $5,995.00

MVP have it listed for $4,275.00 not the $3,800.00 as quoted by a member.

+1. That's a vortech kit, not the HKS kit.

Would it be safe to say that it works on all DE motors then? Rev up or non revup?

That I can not answer. To me the brackets look the same.

Upon closer inspection of these 2 pictures, The only difference is the 2 protruding things that stick out of the 2 holes on the bracket! These do not appear on the non-revup, and the bracket has the holes to accomodate them! It's like the bracket was made for the revup!

Thumbs up

[QUOTE=sfarrah;8115587]Car went back on the Dyno at Uprev last Wed, the max it put down was 345rwhp at ~9psi with a stock intake plenum. Even with the larger Deatschwerks 650 injectors and the fuel pump supplied with the HKS kit, the car was running out of fuel at the top end on the high hp run. Jared installed a Walbro for me before he could finish the tuning.

Nice work on your build and on the track. Can you through any more light on running out of fuel at the top end. How is the setup now with the Walbro pump? What is the pump rated at?
You'v posted heaps and i'm curious about the fuel delivery as i'm just about to place an order.

Thanks.

The pump is a Walbro 255. Not sure what the unit supplied with the kit is rated for. The new pump and larger injectors cured the fuel issues. I wasn't at the dyno the day they had to install the walbro so don't really have any additional info to add.
