New Vortech Supercharging System Information... - Page 21 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

BAE · 10-31-2012, 01:42 PM

The HKS and the Raptor SC kits have been announced with +50-60 whp at 6-7 psi. Any reason the Vortech system should give more power?
I hope for ~60 whp and < $4k. If the quality is good then I may have found my winner.

LOL!
Gem is a customer, not an employee, I want to make sure that is clear. Gem is one of those guys that bugged us really early on regarding a bunch of things and we kept feeding him parts because he provided great feedback. In fact we have done this with many customers, he is just the most vocal. We will not stop selling him parts, which means he may still say good things about us. But with that said something we offer may not be to his liking, and I am sure he will make everyone aware of it. But that is how the internet works.

Back to the topic that is important! We have a whole write up on this, that we are putting together that we will start a thread for. I am personally excited about this whole thing, and there are a lot of benefits to a SC kit.

50-60 WHP should be doable but at what boost? That is the bigger question. In theory 5psi should make about 35% more power. One variable to that is the SC drag. My guess this isn't much giving the SC's construction. But we will just have to wait and see!

And some more eye candy....

That looks like the compressor wheel from their Seadoo upgrade kit lol

OK, so why is it taking so long to bolt this kit onto the car Jeff? If its bolt on, it should be already on the car

I for one think they definitely could have found a hotter blond.. do you see that little stomach bump? Totally unacceptable... she is NOT a sport compact..

Yeah, I'm glad I wasn't the only one. She was good looking but not model material. It's like she ate in the week coming up to the show, where is her dedication?

That's funny, I was gonna say something about the beer gut but decided to be nice.

exactly my point... in the VERY least she could have walked over to the veilside stall and done a quick courtesy puke before posing for this shot!
