Here's an interesting article about thermodynamics relating to color

I really love the black... in fact the clean OEM look of this kit in the black is really starting to win me over.

Lol, so just how many FR-S or BRZ are going to be sporting your kit at SEMA?

C'mon now...I can't tell you that. I will say that without a doubt, the FT86s at SEMA sporting Vortech V-3 H67 Systems will some of the most high profile cars, in some of the most highly trafficked booths, built by some of the most influential builders currently in the scene. Hmmm, I have probably said too much already...

Black absorbs more radiant heat not just from the sun.

I would hate to pay more cause CARB but if thats the case then thats the case if its too much i cant purchase it i bust my butt everyday 7 days a week to make money and id be kinda angry if i had to pay more cause cali has dirty ass air.

but business is business

only time can tell. though I have always been an avid fan of Vortech products and reliability of their products so in the essence of their good line, that SC kit for the FRS/BRZ looks really incredible and clean well done. hope i can brag about having one of your kits some day soon. keep up the good work.

I think this supercharger kit is pretty boss if you ask me :-) i cant wait to see what they are droping honestly. id be happy if i had a low amount of boost. mild tune, giving it another 50hp and a 50 torque would honestly make the car perfect imo. its balance is wonderful. so giving just that extra little push would really make it incredible.

that or just a small turbo charger that would have not much lagg low boost just for extra added accel.

gmooker, you talk a lot of shit about quite a few vendors, often ones that aren't hooking you up. AVO is LEGENDARY in JDM performance. LEGENDARY. You can't find a few papers that bigger boys can afford? I don't care.
