Awesome to see some real work going on Sam. I cant wait for this to be available. I assume once these go on Sale, will we be able to order them from you here in Australia.

I realise your going to do a write for this, but can i ask quickly what sort of TQ numbers it made. Keep up the great work

your gonna be the first Aussie here to go twin turbo...(gut feeling)

EDIT: is it politically correct to say Aussie? because Wiki says its offensive...

I know I have a question and I am guessing many others are also interested in the answer as well. I would love to have a forced induction system (especially since I am at 5500 ft. elevation and am already loosing over 20% from that alone) but to use Ron Popeil’s term, I would like to “set it and forget it”. I would like the highest gains that are safe for the engine. I would not like to have the lifespan of the engine reduced by any significant amount. I do not want to have to take it to a tuner after the initial setup and install and initial tune. Basically I would like the overall reliability to remain while performance was greatly improved. Is this possible? Am I expecting too much? If I wanted 375+ rwhp, should I have bought a car that came that way from the factory? I would love to hear from GTM and Stillen about these questions. Thanks for your time and attention!

Do you really need to post the same question three times in the top three threads?

(And 'yes', I have to post my same question three times to make a point)

Wow, those are QUICK in the dyno run department. Just shows the huge amount of power being delivered - lol.

Can you refer me to any shops in the greater Seattle area (....well WA state for that matter) that would perform the installation? Does this require a Cali road trip? 8 )

Hey kdo' depending on money/cost of the in Aus it is something i am seriously looking at. Also everything i have read about GTM here and other forums, you have great ability to allow the kit to grow in HP terms, when if you upgrade other parts of the engine etc..

As for Aussie, i cant believe Wiki says it's offensive LOL. That really cracks me up. I mean it really just is shortening "Australian" when you think of it.

G37Sam · 09-19-2009, 10:01 PM

Sam that thing sounds insane!

Is that the GTM Exhaust? I could've sworn I spotted some CF in the mufflers haha
