VQinc was the other group. I was checking out you guys vids on YouTube. I thought SGM was a group they had a SGM G35, STI and a supercharged G37 sedan against the VQ guys.

I had a convo with Brian about the shaft today as well and forgot to ask about the weight, but HOLY SHYT 10-15lbs vs 40+ for stock one, thats insane! I can not think of any other mod that would drop close to 30lbs of rotational weight in one shot.

That doesn't sound right. The entire drivetrain accounts for roughly a 50whp loss. I would like to see the before and after dyno on an N/A car so there's no boost variences.

I'm going with the aluminum one. Corey does the car at hills have a CF driveshaft?

I plan to install mine when I get my high stall TC installed.

+1 there is something else going on. I do think this will free up power, but not THAT much power.

Maybe with a lightweight flywheel and carbon shaft not just the carbon shaft. Thats still a lil hard to believe though. I'll believe it once I see the dyno results.

Did anyone find the overall Tq numbers the AL and CF ones would hold? I'm interested too. My daily tune makes 550wtq.
