GTM Performance Engineering Stage 1 Turn key Supercharger kit In house Installation.

Guys, its not the WHP they were worried about, they just werent sure/thought it was a good idea to start pushing that much WTQ across the the A/T. Especially with his 2300 mile drive home. Yes he could have babied it all the way home, but he clearly did not. Good call.

Doesnt matter. We will find out soon enough the difference as there seems to be a M/T G37 getting the 8psi kit installed this week.

What's so hard to understand. Shum got a safe setup so that he'll make it home safely and not have to worry about getting stuck in another country.

Smart move and proved to hold true considering how this mad man drove back. He can do the upgrades later and reflash remotely. Not as big of a deal as your making it out to be.

Shumby - I'm glad YOU got what YOU wanted out of this car. Not only is this a testament to the potential of this setup but also cements the claims by GTM. Especially for us 8psi - M/T guys.

I have never owned a BMW in my life. Now can we PLEASE keep this on topic.

I thought his country was the other country.

Why are people even questioning what he wanted in his car? Jesus christ, who cares. Shumby is all smiles and that means GTM did money work.

Driving 2300 miles or whatever, I would have wanted the end game setup with trans mods coming down the road.. Not lets add more boost later and hope the tune is ok or can be adjusted well remotely.

As for blowing it on the way home, it doesn't matter if the car made 200hp or 600hp - if you drive it normally there is no worry. Getting it home fine is not a valid point of consideration.

Then get your own GTM kit and do it "your way".

Shumby, I'm jealous!

Shumby, how about that review you promised me

I didn't say he was stupid, I just gave my opinion which comes from experience of having long distance work done about 6 years ago. I find your opinion of my opinion highly opinionated..

And my opinion is that you all can have your own opinion. So how many times can you use the word opinion in one sentence with meaning?
