Making a supercharger kit for this application is not easy. it is very complex car with very sophisticated engine and ecu.
Making a supercharger kit in General is much much harder and more complex then making a turbo system. and also making adjustment to anything in a supercharger system (especially in the initial stages of the project)is a lot more time consuming then a turbo system .

having said all that .the project has been a complete success so far, for a lot of reasons

-Supercharger belt is tracking very well
-No belt slippage issue what so ever
-No flex of any of the brackets and mounting hardware
-Excellent results for such a low boost
-Excellent torque curve
-the system has made close to 100 HP over stock on factory exhaust and cats @ only 5 psi

So you tell me how's the project going

Sam -

I sent you a PM. Also, I might be interested in the turbo kit DVD option. 2010 Nismo edition now since I sold the GT-R. PM me. I will give you a ring tomorrow if you like.

Where are we getting these numbers from? Isn't a base RWHP around 250-270 (depending on the dyno)? I don't see how the additional 100 makes 480. Maybe I missed something.

^^ I'm not asking for anything. My involvement in this thread has been very minimal. I won't be doing this sort of upgrade any time soon. However, I do read it often and find it interesting but I didn't see where the 480 WHP came from....especially if everything else is bone stock.
