Ummmm, this still wont get you 500 whp. Also, is the vpro the one that comes with the new HKS supercharger? If not I wouldn't waste the money on it IMO. It's a completely unnecessary expense since you can achieve the same goals with a less expensive EMS and you wont have to go back to GTM every time you want to get it tuned (since the FCon locks once it is tuned).

I think George is kinda heavily pitching his HKS stuff.

Hrrmm, well I got the hks fcon vpro, on top, sam gave me a deal i cant say no too Not only that, I get to keep the hks fcon IS that comes with the SC. I'm actually expecting 450whp after a future build with my 5AT, 450whp 5AT is like almost 500whp if its 6mt, I don't know, Sam explained everything to me clear up front and it was clear enough for me to buy so i just pulled the trigger and hop on it. 450-500whp is my future goal, I'm going to upgrade my pulley right from the start, hopefully I will be near 400whp on the stock motor, they think it's not a problem. Well, I'll just hope, wait and see how it turns out, thx for your opinion guys. As for coming back to GTM everytime, I don't think I mind, I been fvcked over so many times I'm over almost every other shop personally

^^^I tried to tell you a while ago that you should have just gone to GTM from the beginning. I can't wait to see how your HKS setup comes out with the new HKS charger.

Not pitching anything, Everyone knows I'm a major HKS fan, Guess I like companies that put out good products that work

As far as EMS, If you can't understand why a standalone EMS is the way to go, then I suggest you do some more research on the subject.

Also once a VPro is tuned, there is no need for it to be messed with, since it has temperature and altitude compensation, something piggyback EMS's don't offer.

Congrats G35Rider, Your going to enjoy your ride!
