FP has had this price advertised for a while but all i see is ppl killin it for the ability to make power or i should say over 340 without the GTM mod or GTM pulley.. It does look very attractive tho for $45

Didn't notice FP was even selling it. They weren't last time i checked. Anyway $4500 is MSRP. I'm sure you can get it for less from the dealers.

I always found the HKS kit to be silly....300-400whp going anywhere from $7K to $11K..it was ridiculous. Now at least it's competitive...hmmmm.

According to FP's website it is. When i saw the price i initially thought it would be missing fuel or ecu components but they updated the site yet again mentioning they are full kits.

HR is meant for turbo ... dual throttle bodies make it perfect.. I wouldnt want to put a s/c in the HR.. doesnt make sense to me..

Nothing for the RevUp either, even though japan has had it out for well over a year now for the revup. Does GTM have a revup GT Supercharger?

agreed!. Isnt the HKS more Tqy then other s/c's though? Doesnt the GTM upgrade gets you up to 400/400tq? I could of sworn I saw a thread on here that it made good power. Im sure with a larger intercooler would make a little more. Correct me if im wrong.

The price drop definitely makes it more competitive. Might have to revisit this once tax return season comes around... doesn't look like anything will ever come of the VK56 swap.
