Its funny how both GTM and Stillen have gone dark for a while on these threads. I personally dont think the supercharger is producing the numbers they were expecting as I had previously predicted several posts back. I have a feeling the cost of this kit is going to be close to the cost of a twin turbo kit.

Unless the supercharger is 5 grand or less I wont be playing. I am quickly loosing interest in the supercharger and I am leaning towards GTM's twin turbo kit. I already have the supporting mods for either kit and after reading the self install thread on the GTM twin Turbo kit, its totally doable.

Yeah you keep telling us this like we all want to hear it 5 times over, you know, in case I woke up this morning and completely forgot that 2fast4thelaw won't pay more than 5K for 100+RWHP. By the way, there is no way you are too fast for the law...

Its funny to me how people keep making comments like this. Most of which, despite their claims, won't even be purchasing any kit at all. If they would just read the thread they would see that they will flamed with the silly, 'whats taking so long' comments.

I wonder if GTM is going to do a ECU reflash with the SC kit. Oh yea what's the adv vs Disadvantages of a reflash vs a Standalone unit.

They will most definitely have a ECU flash with the kit. Running boost without a tune is an almost certain guarantee for engine failure.

budakai · 02-21-2010, 05:22 PM

I know tuning of some sort is needed but which one do you think is better? Reflash or STU

CBRich · 02-21-2010, 05:52 PM

Hopefully there will be an available flash but I think a full tune on a dyno will give better results for those who don't mind spending the extra money.
