Exclamation GT Motorsports: Vortech SC, FCon VPro, Built block, 466rwhp

Gilbert recently relocated down here to Southern California since he is in the military, and we are glad he chose us to help him with his supercharged G35. He left the car with us while he was gone and we got to work. Here is a list of modifications on the car and some pictures, we hope he enjoys the new found power.

Vortech SC kit - 2.87 Pulley
Stillen exhaust
JWT Clutch/Flywheel
800cc Deatchwerk Denso Injectors
GTM Pulley Modification
GTM Stage 0 Shortblock
GTM Stage 1 N/A Cams
GTM Stage 1 Cylinder Heads
HKS FCon VPro EMS

i love how every vortech filter I've seen always has that dent in it from shoving in front of the AC lines. From thousands of dollar installs to DIY.

^^^^^^ K, well the car actually looks really dirty and poorly cared for and the supercharger looks used, but I was trying to say something nice. You know what your Mom always tells me....

there's a DIY thread somewhere on here. All u have to do is drill a hole into the bracket and install the pulley.

That's one of the things I hate about my vortech. I just did what GTM did and dremeled out the support above the filter and bent the ac lines out of the way.

Now I just need to get another filter.

This is my car. It's dirty because I dropped the car off the GTM in February, then deployed for 7 months. My guess is that the pics were taken after the car sat for a very long time. Then again, I bought the car new in December 2002, so it actually looks good for a six year old car. The Kuruma bumper is a mess and needs repainting. Most of the damage occured when GTM sent a tow truck to pick the car up. The supercharger looks used, because it's been on the car for 18 months. Even George wrote that the car was supercharged when I dropped it off.

1) This car already had a super charger kit installed for a while, (we did not originally install it) hence why its a little dirty, and filter is bent.

2) The customer was deployed over seas, so the car sat here for a little while.

3) We don't charge our customers storage fees, in fact we have 3 other cars here in the shop with customers that are currently deployed defending our country. Their cars stay in the shop, covered, until they return.

Hope this clears up the confusion.
