Default more outcome with s/c

curious if yout can get larger injectors for the s/c kit? they come with 310cc injectors...would it be possible to get larger ones for maybe more performance? can the pulleys be changed? i am curious why with the lsd and t/c with a supercharger kit i gs400 would dip into the 12's. i think that could be expected rather modestly

i am thinking hard about doing this mod. i can't let that price pass me up. i am too greedy on the hp cause. i guess with the s/c i would need to purchase a t/c and supra lsd...or could i hold off on the lsd

You dont have to get the Supra LSD, u can just get the TRD unit that does affect the gearing, thats what i have.

I don't know about "modestly" dipping into the twelves but I would say they should be "possible". Depends on the RMM kit , their tuning, and oh yeah.... your driving.

I run 13.3 w 19" rims on pump gas. I have the smallest pulley made by vortech for the 6-rib belt you will get detonation with the boost rising too fast. the 3.61 pulley (std) only gives you 310-340 RWHP however the 1/4 mile is a good 13.4 13.5 w/ 19" rims. You need a fuel management system with the smaller pulleys. I have the 1.62 or something you need a 500.00 management sys. The 310cc's are fine I have to lean it out because if you tak it to the dyno on a wide band you will be off the chart rich sfter 4000 rpm right now. (NOT THE BEST KIT) SRT BEST. LIVE AND LEARN.

PS I have every pulley size from 3.61 to 1.62 if you want I will sell them cheap for you to try on your rmm kit.

Roenick, Why do you say its not the best kit? Is it just for the lack of fuel management, or other reasons? I cant see the kit or the SC itself **** that different from the now not available SRT kits. I would imagine that with the right supporting cast this kit could be just as good, am I mistaken? Please let me know as I am seriously considering getting this kit. This is the ONLY option out there for us GS4 owners, short of the 30k TT kit.

Looks like it won't be a stopper for most of you based upon location, but I just got official confirmation from RMM that the GS400 SC Kit is not CARB certified. Not good for California unless you enjoy taking your car back to stock every two years.

Roenick7, what are you planning on doing [with regards to smog]?
