Thoughts? Sorry if repost!

I think the new kit is awesome. 268 HP on 93. And for the price, its not bad

Can someone more knowledgeable than me offer input on this vs. the JRSC? They're both centrifugal, but I hear next to nothing about the HKS systems. I like that the JRSC has so much track testing behind it, but the HKS looks interesting.

I can't use sound. What is the differences between the v2 and v3? They look practically the same.

From the other thread:

Quote:

V2 - V3 differences:
Larger intercooler
Larger intercooler piping
Larger s/c inlet piping
Larger s/c pulley (reduced compressor speed compared to V2)
Lack of s/c inlet restrictor
Flash Editor calibrations (optional)

There is a V2 > V3 upgrade kit available:
#12002-KK002 "Version Up" kit includes the new piping, pulley, and belt.

As for the GT Supercharger itself:
V1 & V3 7040L Superchargers use the same 5-bolt pulleys, but the compressor sides are clocked a little differently.

V2 Superchargers are clocked like a V1, but use a single bolt pulley which is unique to the V2 7040L.

Like the idea of the pre programmed tunes

HKS has always been a good brand they have been in the game a long time.

HKS started racing & setting records with supercharged FA20s in 2013.

For anyone attending 86Fest this weekend, I'll be in the HKS booth with two V3 equipped cars for everyone to check out. We'll have some other FA20 goodies on display, we'll be giving away HKS t-shirts, and we'll be conducting raffles for ride-alongs in the HKSUSA FR-S with Formula D driver Michael Essa.

Kit looks awesome! Definitely not bad for the price

Timmy_Jones · 09-24-2015, 10:22 AM

Any word on their tuners working with a header already installed on the car?

Man, I wish I could go to 86fest to see this thing in person.

The main difference in fact is that they returned to the original design of the V1 blower as the V2 design with 1-bolt pulley attachement simply doesn't last long in applications heavier than grandma's daily driving (my personal opinion based on 3 failed V2s whose owners I know personally, myself inclusive).

Another important difference is that now they are offering official HKS tunes.
