GTM SC installs reviewed

We have seen a summary of the stillen kit and wanted to see how GTM is doing but didnt want to take over a thread meant to discuss something else.

Default GTM SC installs reviewed

We have seen a summary of the stillen kit and wanted to see how GTM is doing but didnt want to take over a thread meant to discuss something else.

So who has the GTM kit installed and how is the kit doing?

I really don't want to disrespect anyone or start ****, but everyone who said they had one installed went quiet...

I am very interested in this thread too. In for results.

I'm holding off on my review until I get the bypass valve and intake pipe thing SAM mentioned on the other thread worked out.

I wonder if we could run 10psi on these smaller superchargers? They would be torque queens.

No noise is better than bad noise... Most people usually drive their cars for a while and don't care to take the time to write a long review... I know the kits are selling cause sam has a lot of cars getting them installed. Unlike the stillen kit no one has been reporting problems...

No ****, there's no noise because no one has it lol. Lot of cars no one knows about. I know the Stillen kits are selling because there are actually reviews.

The only people that have it are people who installed it at GTM. If I remember correctly, Z Eliminator/dannygt ordered the first ones? They still don't have it.

Dreamer ever dynoed?

yeah, the jury is still out with the GTM kits. I think they were having troubles with their supplier, that's why they made a part for shumby's in house, which is the only why he already has his. I guess we'll hear more installs coming up pretty soon. but to bullit's point, its better to have no news than bad news.

i think the only stillen kits sold right now are the ones from the initial introductory purchases when no one knew about all the issues and when they were bragging about all the testing they were doing. something in the lines of track tested not just in the dyno. hahaha. i was under the impression that they stopped the sale of the kit because of all Stillen's issues. but if they haven't, that is really bad for them to take ppls money for a flawed/incomplete product.

I have been driving mine for about 2-3 weeks now with zero problems. The car is making good power, and we are still fine tuning a few things with the long tube headers and playing with settings to see what we can do.
Overall the kit has been great, install was a breeze for Baker Tuning, the system sounds great, and no issues. Not really sure what people want me to report on, it just works exactly as it is suppose and as GTM said it would. I decided to throw my own wrench in with the long tube headers as the original design for the GTM kit was not build around them. So we are having fun and working directly with Sam to help give feedback on them so he can provide better support for those who wish to have LTH and his SC kit.

Overall I could not be happier with this kit.
