Kyle - One other request. Loving the videos. But, I was wondering, could you post one of the car at idle without music? In the past the Vortech blowers have sounded like "rocks in a blender" and I was curious if the V3 sounds the same?

Thanks!

Too bad the OEM 370Z ecu doesn't use a speed density-based system, and we could ditch the MAF all together

MAP, from what I understand, is much harder to tune for proper AFR across the spectrum. But, certainly much safer than MAF tuning.

Good to see you on here, bro. How's business? Shoot me a PM for response. Don't want to get barked at for taking the thread OT.

The JWT TT kit for the 350Z utilizes a draw-through maf design as well. It may not be ideal, but it has seemed to work out fine for JWT.

But this is only because Scott Bush installs and tunes them using voodoo.

- two words - SPEED DENSITY -

Lets hope we can get rid of the MAF based system all together one day heh?

Fail safe perf - you beat me to it... ;-) I am more then in agreement - so much smoother, let alone accurate.


Nice

So if someone theoretically drove down from Chicago...how long would said someone have to wait in Tulsa, OK until they could drive back with said supercharger kit installed?
