You can't just take an off the shelf product and slap it on their. You have to consider that we have a relatively new motor that to my knowledge has never been supercharged before. There are going to be some R & D cost associated. I think that GTM said they spent $500,000 developing their turbo kit for the G37. Even at $8000 a pop, they will most likely have to sell 150 units just to break even.

How many GTM TT G37's do you know of, because I'm sure their aren't 150.

If some company was to pop the cherry however and develop an economical kit that only needed a slight fuel system upgrade and reflash device to run, they might be able to sell them more effectively than the $15000 tt upgrade. I think the magic numbers for our car would be 450 HP for under $7000.

 

Sorry, but you have no idea what you are taking about.

 

I'd hate to bash you, but may you please respond with facts, or atleast, opinion? I mean you are calling someone out and running away.

Even though I am not the originator of that post, I have to say If I can get a TT setup for ~$5k or a Supercharger setup for ~$3k, I'm in.

 

My opinion is, he doesn't know what he is talking about. I ran no where?

 

Slap it on their what? Who are "they"?

 

Then explain why ... He is asking for you to support your claim .....

 

When he posted this:
my opinion was formed. The V1, V2, V3 are all off the shelf head units with fabrication to make them fit a particular car.

Claim supported..

 

Good... your learning^

 

Its like pulling teeth sometimes. I heard that HKS and Greddy was working on a supercharger but I don't know how close they are to that.

 

I don't know what I'm talking about either but I don't understand the original poster.
If you want the G get it. The car comes with 330 hp so unless you're racing that will match or beat the majority of cars out there.
If 330 is not enough there are several cars out there that come with bigger ponies. I looked at a Vette yesterday and it's a monster.
SO I don't get the point of the thread. The G37 makes 330 hp. Enough for me but not for everyone.

 

What is so hard to understand:
So I want a G, but I want it to be faster. Just like when I bought the Z..

 

an n/a build should make you faster than your z with cleaner power.

 

What N/A build is going to find 120rwhp gains? I make 90rwhp more than a stock G37 and weigh atleast 300lbs less - that is where I'm getting that number.

And what do you mean by cleaner power?

 

i always like n/a power better than f/i. although a s/c does have a nice linear power band.

i was thinking your z runs what, high 12s-low 13s? with bolt-ons, the g37 should be able to do that.

 

If you think that is all that is involved, hire a shop to do the fab work... you want something that's carb certified, and for some reason you think that's free. There's R & D dollars involved, if you're denying that, you have absolutely no idea what your talking about.
