No way you can get that high on a non rev and supercharger. I'd say around 320 - 340. But I'm not much of a supercharger guy so I could be wrong.

Glad you got everything fixed and running ok, I've had my share of problems with pressure on the radiator hoses lol. We finally have that fixed now but it required some cooling system from a pathfinder lol. She's peacefully resting at Performance Auto Spa until the end of April.

370 whp is attainable with a non-revup and 5AT.

regardless what the final numbers are the car is much more fun to drive and listen to, I find myself driving with the radio turned down to hear the supercharger.

I tried to order a g35 gauge pod for my new set up from Intense Power. I ordered gauges from Prosport, oil filter sandwich from Glow shift, extended oil pan spacer from Import Parts Pro. Everything arrived within a week except the gauge pod. I called looking for it and they told me it would ship 5 weeks ago ( guess what never got it ) called again and they said it would ship from a different location ( never got it) after waiting patiently for 7 weeks I called and cancelled the order and asked them to reimburse my credit card. Two weeks later I am still looking for the credit!! I will never order anything from this company ever again. If you choose to it is at your own risk. I have never been more dissatisfied with a vender.

It would be cool to do a video of our cars. The first one you guys did wasn’t bad but it really featured John more than the cars

More power to you for getting boost, bet it's fast as hell but it's **** like this that reinforces my reasons against personally going boost.

Is it wrong for me to want a boosted car without the hassle of boosting it? lol

The nightmare continues!! I got back from Jamaica last night, and went to start the car and it wouldn’t start. I had it towed to the dealer to install the stock crank pulley and see why she won’t start. The only thing that scares me is Bedford of Infiniti isn’t an authorized Vortech dealer. I did find a backup plan called Race Car Factory who is an authorized dealer and shop. If I knew I was going to have all of these issues I would of never done this to start with. What makes it even worse is the guy in Chicago who did the original install won’t even give me the common respect of calling me back. Screw him!!

Damn! I'm on the same boat as you(my turbo and wastegates are bad) but my turbos are under warranty lol

I hope you get your car back with the starting issue fixed!
