Yeah but if it works, it works. Looks don't add horsepower.

Sam, will you send out the VHR S/C kit already so the HR guys can get some love. Any updates at all for the HR guys?

Sam, I currently have UPREV software and when I select a map I do not get an indication by the cruise control light which map I selected, will the software with the GTM G35 HR S/C kit display map selection by flashing the cruise control light like the GTM 370Z S/C kit? Do I need to ask Jared this question?

Spoke with sam 2 days ago he said something about the superchargers being held up in customs... he said most of the brackets have come in and he should have updates soon. I'm hoping by end of next week we should have at least a dyno if everything fits like it should.

Good to hear, thanks for the update.

The thread below has a video that shows how you select the different maps from the tuning software.

Sam, I live in Miami and it is not unusual for us to have some areas accumulate up to 8 inches of water in a day from tropical rain storms. Is there anyway to raise the air intakes up higher in the void behind the bumper? The upper one may be fine my concern is the lower one, we get tropical down pours at the drop of a hat and I would hate to ingest a bunch of water.

I'm sure you could buy some piping and add an extension that would route it upwards.

That's what I was thinking. I was even thinking about replacing the bottom tube extension with something else.

Sam,

I Pm'd you some questions but figure I'd ask a couple more here. How much do you think some metal substrate cats will add such as Berk for example? They seem to help alot for NA so I assume at 8+ PSI they will yield even greater results.

Other question is regarding headers. I already know the HR is considered to have a good OEM manifold design but at around 450whp do you think the OEM header is holding anything back?

Looking at the efficiency of the compressor options you are using along with the 3.5HR having less overlap and responding to boost a touch better that the VHR do you think with a STG2 kit 500whp could be possible with say 10lbs with most bolt ons?

Sorry for asking speculative questions but I really am looking for something to yield 450+whp. I would love TT I just prefer the linear powerband for more predictability when raced on the road course with a RWD car. Now with AWD thats a whole other debate though

Sam, I plan on installing an oil cooler during the S/C kit install. Will the GTM oil cooler kit work with the oil filter relocation kit? If not do you have any suggestions on how to go about installing an oil cooler inconjunction with the oil filter relocation kit?

+1 on these questions. I was in different words hovering around the same questions. I planned to buy the TT kit, but I would much rather have this from you all. I am just on the fence about things.
