Wow! Looks GREAT! Area 51 does some REALLY nice work! 350 HP to the crank...nice!

The ONLY thing that kills me is the fact that you can't put in a front STB...no good to have all that power unless you can control it! (unless you're just a straight line type of driver)...

Do you know if Area 51 has any GS400/430's supercharged yet? What do they do about the ECU? Do they reprogram it or do they use something like the S-AFC?

It seems like a bit of an overkill but I just wanted to say that you've got a very clean looking car.
Congrats man!!
I also would like to see some times posted.

I use the s-afc for the ecu.

they want to supercharge a gs400/430. n e one intrested?

I just painted the engine cover the same color as the car.

I have tein HA so the handling is good They are going to mke me a custom strut bar ..also i cant put the strut without the supercharger too because the engine cover hits.

Ill post more pics of the int later today

Car looks great Also curious about 1/4 mile times. If you do go to the track, make sure you drive your car onto a weight scale (if they have one) It will give a better basis for comparison. Dyno is a must .....and let us know what wheels you were running.

Aristov3o0,

A few more questions please...
1) What max psi are you running?
2) Who is the OEM of the SC?
3) Did you have to redo your fuel delivery system (ie, pump, rails, injectors)?

Thanks! Car looks great!

PS I might be interested...

Brent
