i agree, fully.... and i would LOVE to see the same numbers as you are, and i know what is required for the most part to do so. Thing is, putting 600 RWHP in a stock VQ will diminish the life span by a multiple of probably close to 100. i SERIOUSLY doubt even with simple day to day driving, not beating on it, that it would last much longer than 20-30k before it sends an important part of the engine into the road, through your hood, or into your dash. so a big thing for me is longevity. thats one reason why i have pretty high hopes for the TSC kit, from what ive HEARD superchargers are usually less "harmful" overall to your system in the long haul, due to typically lower boost pressures and various other things. i could be wrong, but thats what ive gathered. but i mentioned the FI kit because it was the first TT developed for the 370 so far that has seen numbers even close to that at such a low boost, and it also has the simplest plumbing setup ive seen as well. less complicated=good imo. considering the fact all of the parts will be installed by me, less is best.
