Oh, and the fact that those are CARB legal numbers... Stage 3? 500whp?

Zsteve 03-03-2010 07:59 PM
price? hmmm both kits very close in numbers but one has a little more TQ, price is going to be the factor I think.

I'm wondering if this dyno used the big wheels because if so, it would close that TQ gap. Thats why I mentioned that earlier. If not then maybe once this makes it to the Z 6MT it'll pick up some gains. :D

Sorry, where do I sign, I got dibs on the first :)
We will have pricing shortly.. as well as have an introductory price, and will be taking good faith deposits from pre-order customers to secure there place in line for the first units shipping.

That deposit will be $500.

Different dyno's.. Different dyno operators. Comparing them and trying to figure out why one has 10 more torque is pointless.

You are correct sir! This dyno is with the show 20's before we made the switch to the factory non-sport 18's.

8PSI on the dyno?

cotizi 03-03-2010 08:12 PM
Why a 3rd gear pull? What's the gear ratio on a g37? Also worth noting is that the baseline is a stock g37, versus the supercharger that includes stillen exhaust. What psi was this run done at?

Quite nice for a CARB kit, for sure.

good point, why the heavy wheels to begin with? Is the carb legal at 8 psi?

Red370 03-03-2010 08:13 PM
The car will make more power on the 6MT 370, so dont use the G as a reference point. Also keep in mind that this is their CARB kit, numbers are low to keep it smog compliant. The non CARB, I/E Stage 1/2/3 will have significant increases in power because smog will not be taken into consideration and there will be more aggressive tunes.

I love how Steve still has his Kiwi accent, wish I was able to keep mine. I also love how Steve still has his hand in every aspect of the company especially R&D, shows a guy that is committed to his business. And you kids are okay too, but you'd be cooler with an accent.

And those early dyno numbers are pretty impressive!

I did not know they had these kind of resources. Its like a damn race team in there. I don't have a doubt in my mind they are going to pump out some serious serious engineering and performance out of their SC kit.

LiquidZ 03-03-2010 08:38 PM
Ah yes, this is looking mighty good Stillen. I'm very impressed.

LUVZTTZ 03-03-2010 08:43 PM
Where did the 8 psi come from, or is that your guess?

LiquidZ 03-03-2010 08:45 PM
First post of this thread indicates "around 6 PSI" CARB legal kit.

Zsteve 03-03-2010 08:48 PM
just a guess but I thought I had heard one of these SCs were trying 8 psi. So 6 psi for carb legal, could 8 psi be carb legal too and would it just as safe on the car as 6?
