Everyone should be able to make 315whp on 93 oct with a tvs. It's not hard to do.

you can DD a 1000whp vehicle. people can act just as stupid in a 100hp honda as they can a turbo v8. just because it's got alot of power doesn't mean you have to floor it when leaving every stop light

It will help but nowhere near like running E85 or even meth where you can cram that low end timing in

i cant wait for to get my e-85 tune for my tvs

and josh i know yall dont offer a 2.6 pulley tune for the m62, i just thought i would throw a 2.6 on there then i went and got it dyno tuned. my point was canned tunes just do the job for being able to drive the car, the hp comes from actually getting your car dyno tuned

who did you "heard" this from? there's always alot of references here about horror stories, but in reality what it is, is a couple of people out of thousands that have problems, and then all of the sheeple here panic about it.

you can always tell when someone here has an issue, because within 24 hours, there are dozens of people looking for replacement parts to resolve the issue that they're not even having.

Only problems I have heard are a few cases of the stock pulleys shearing off, and thats it. Or maybe you mean the poeple that pop their motors...cant expect something to last forever if your running a ton more boost and most likely a tune not perfectly suited for the car

^^^ the tvs made a huge difference. i dont know who says it doesnt. but the problem is no one is going down on the pulleys like they did with the m62.

try it out put on a 2.6 on the m62 with all the right supporting mods and then do a 2.6 on the tvs and see what it does with all the right supporting mods

You were lied to. Harrop makes superchargers for OEM's around the world. The reason they don't carry it is because dealer price is $2150 to everyone. The only way to get it cheaper is to buy from us. They simply can't compete.

The bolts shearing off can only occur if the fastener is torqued past its rating. So those cases were improper install somewhere along the line.

We have had 3 other cases of nicks and gouges on the rotors. Harrop chose not to warranty them as something has obviously been sucked up.

90% of the issue with stuff breaking is the installer or operator. there are of course failures as with anything... but most of the time it's because of some *******, and on top of that, the ******* usually blames the company

most of the people that have instsaled the ls4 havent took the time to tune or play with the settings in hpt mine is touchy and i had to relearn how to drive my car but the bottom and mid it gave me was worth the trade off not that i have it on the tvs it isent as touchy
