If you pulled the HKS sticker off, it would look "OEM", except for the catch can.

Just heard from Sam, myself. So far everything looks good and it will be ready by today.

awesome #'s on a dynapack, jonnylaw. What exactly does the Stage 5 upgrade include? (never mind, I looked it up on the GTM website...impressive kit)
What was your baseline before installing the HKS kit? Just wondering how much power you've gained overall.

Not suggesting you do, just a remark at how "factory" the system looks.Originally Posted by TBG_Dad

It does look good and you are right. If HKS had put that anywhere else, the SC would easily look like it came with the car.

Hmm, I'm gonna check with the tuner on Monday and see if they did a baseline pull before install. Originally Posted by Modified Dave

If not, I might go to the dynojet that I have used previously to test out my bolt-ons in the past.
There's plenty of available power now
Idle is a tad bit rough, but everything else is very smooth.
My ARC titan strut bar had to come off as the intercooler piping interferes (only on the G, not the Z kits).
Looks like I'll be selling the ARC titan strut, airbox, and amuse intake pipe.
I wonder if there are any strut braces out there that will fit..The VRT style strut might interfere with the catch can...

Damn, that was really fun and frustrating at the same time. Traffic was backed up almost all the way home which was really awesome. It probably saved me from getting a ticket. Dyno is in the van and I'm too tired to get it but base was 246hp and final is 336hp.
Thank you Sam and GTM for the awesome job. I know I'll be back!!

congrats on the install! I see a new supercharger on my car with a built motor in the future....I will see what numbers I really get then!

My kid .... I tell you, he's awesome. GTM had to remove his seat for the install and I didnt get put back in. They pull my car out and he literally starts running around the car .. "DADA VROOMVROOM, I LOVE VROOMVROOM, DADA...". You would have thought it was his car the way he was crying when he got strapped back into the van.... "NOOOOOOOOOOOO..", full tears and everything. I felt proud and ashamed at the same time. I'll definitely have to make it up to him.

Ok clarify me guys, do i need to get a supercharger oil change? Or can I just top off more oil?? If so what kind of oil and where do I pour? HAHA

I think the consensus is that the traction oil does not need to be changed, but refilled if running out (HKS bottle is ~$200).Originally Posted by G35Rider92649
