Nice Shumby... make sure to post some vids. Don't be like the TT guys that I have yet to see many videos from...(anyone know of any p.m. me with links cause I can't find much besides the customer test drive...can't remember brand...GTM maybe?... that was a good video, but haven't seen many other driving vids)
can't wait to see the dyno overlay... should be interesting

I asked this in the Stillen thread too, but GTM will you have numbers on the IC as to how well it keeps temps down during hard drives and high temps?

So now we need a dyno with an aftermarket CBE from GTM. ALso what dyno do you guys use?
also I know you guys will be answering questions like crazy now but here are a few things Id like to know: Is the SC in its best effieciency range? What is the weight of everything you added? What are the intake temps after the cooler when driven hard? Thanks guys and its a great looking kit, do you hear the SC wind up?

I love all the pics and videos on the dyno and everything but there is only one type of media for this type of product that will really have buyers figuring out how to put their kidney up for sale on the black market to pay for this kit. And this specific media type is action media. People want to see this kit burning some rubber and out being used in "action". This is what opens people's wallets and gets them lined up at the door step of GTM. Don’t get me wrong dyno numbers, pics and what not are just as important but what I really mean is I wanna see some action media! Burn some rubber GTM, 0-60's, 0-100's and maybe even a drift or two!
Or I guess you could wait for your customers to buy the kit and shoot some action media maybe a year or so from now. But for the manufacture to make the media to me is 10x's more professional and business like. The name GTM should hold such high standards, but hey that’s just my 2cents.

In to see the results of the GTM kit WITH an exhaust system. If people N/A were making the gains they were just imagine when tuned around a full exhaust system. The numbers will EASILY be on par or 10+whp more than the other kit.
Honestly tho, who cares if they are within 10whp of each other. It will literally come down to driver skill/preference at that point. Love the drama....LOL

Also if a SC is not working at its best efficiency, what does that really mean? I know you are not at max power then but would it effect mpg, how hard the engine works, etc.?
