If you would have asked me last year which way I would go, I would have said 80% SC 20% T

Now that has totally changed.... 80% T 20% SC.

Now, if you were to ask me which kit I think I would go with...

BP 50% FI 50% is where I sit....

I am watching
Def keep watching. IMHO it will soon be heavily favored to FI.

I will leave it for those who already have their installs done to comment further rather than my biased opinion pre FI install. Btw FI will soon have the G37 kit available. Will be worth the wait. Also check the Official FI "Twin Turbo Kit" is here thread for info on the kit for Z's and G37's. Good luck whichever way you go.

That's the little boost monkey that sits on your shoulder. Most of the time he's quiet and just sits there. Every once in awhile he jumps down and clicks the mouse guiding you to locations he knows you really want to be in...Don't fight the monkey

Boost is good

You got the Canadian monkey. He's only .91 the size, but brings better beer.

just curious how guys with more modest power levels (around or <500whp) are doing in terms of traction. Would I need new rubber (running 245/285 re-11s) at about 450whp?

First is useless. You'll be able to give it 1/2-2/3 throttle in second, but it may still break loose at peak torque. You can go WOT in third. That's on 245/285s.

And I love how "at or around 500whp" has now become "modest" power. Thanks, Tony.

I'm looking to have just above 500 rwhp(500-520) and around 10psi and a DD. Is this the kit for me?

I currently run Husky 94 AKI Octane
