Default Death by G35

Well Ijust got my comptech blower installed and just finished workign out some of the bugs.


Anyways. I had a rematch waiting for me with a buddy of mine.

https://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=416730



He beat my stock Ap1 by 6 cars last time.

So we line up and I rev to 5000ish and dump it. Not the greatest launch however I jumped about 1/2 car on him.

Stayed there till the end of 2nd. Then he slowly slowly slowly crept up to my door and past me.

In the end my bumper was at his door.


Had I got the vortec I would have beat him. Oh well.
I'll get him next year when I turn up teh boost. But he's alreayd got his pulley upgrade waiting to go on.


My mods
Ap1
comptech SC w/AC
t1r test pipe
t1r dual sparrow


His mods
03' G35 coupe
Vortec supercharger stock boost
some engine work (not sure what, maybe he was lying to me LOL)
Some brand name exhaust (forgot what kind)


P.S he is so happy because my mr2 beat him by a good 4-5 cars

pretty much everything.

Too bad it's a POS garage queen. I've since parted most of it out, and am now trying to selling it.

i dont understand why anybody even buys the CTSC. the vortech is the same price if not cheaper and you get 2lbs of boost more to start with.

I'm starting to think that myself........


But I was reading and the comptech looked more reliable from reading posts and such.

I ended up paying for the install, so I might have been happier.

But in the end I got the CTSC cheaper than I coudl have gotten the vortec local. So that's why I got it.

It was the black box issues I was worried about.

I kept hearing horror stories about them.
