So you want to see a picture of a Z with our fascia on it? LOL!
No, not yet. We're actually doing all of our testing with a stock fascia that we picked up from our good friends over at the Nissan proving grounds in Arizona. We wanted to do all of our durability testing with the stock fascia so that we could make sure airflow was sufficient for all cars, not just people with our fascia. |

I am going to be finalizing the instructions tomorrow with one of our craftsmen. Then we will be able to finalize the pricing and everything for you guys.

You won't notice an impact on the quickness of revving through the power band. What you will notice is that the RPMs jump from mid-range to redline VERY quickly. Lower down in the RPM range, you won't experience lag, but you will feel a very slight 'bog'. At least, this was my experience with the Vortech blower. With the roots type blowers, I notice zero lag and no real difference in RPM building even up top.

Thanks, sir. Though, I'm sure you've been able to hear it. Does the V3 still have the rattle that the other Vortech blowers had? Not that this is a bad thing, I used to actually find the 'rocks in a blender' sound endearing. Others, not so much.

The only experience I have with the roots is with the Stillen SC kit on the Pathfinder. I don't think the blower was out of its efficiency range up top, but I could be wrong. The Pathfinder didn't have a high RPM redline, so it shifted around 6k. I just didn't notice it jetting the RPMs from 4500-6000 nearly as quickly as the Vortech blower did on my G35. Maybe the TVS was running out of steam up there? :shrugs:

I had a V2 on my corvette and it was near silent at idle.

If the V3 uses the same gearing, then it should be as silent. I actually liked how Brando's and my chargers sounded. It wasn't obnoxious to me. Others didn't share my same sentiment, though. I haven't been able to hear the new internally lubricated versions, so I am interested.
