So awesome.. Cant wait to see the results! And get your impressions..

Everyone seems to worry about the performance of the GSF, but maybe with these mods you have created the perfect combination of luxury and violence!

The build quality of this product is pretty good, but the install requires some trimming and cutting. Almost done today, still need to final work tomorrow
The shop is spirit performance in irvine. They are working eleven hours on this car everyday in past 2 days, the cost is 1350 which is pretty good.

Thanks for the info, I was wondering about what needed to be trimmed.... did you need to modify the front reinforcement ? There is simply not much room in the engine bay as is !

SPIRIT PERFORMANCE DID A CUSTOM BUMPER REINFORCEMENT VENT FOR INTERCOOLER IN ORDER TO IMPROVE THE FLOW
THIS WILL BE HIDDEN UNDER THE PLASTIC PIECES AND PAINTED BACK SO COULD NOT BE SEEN.

SPIRIT PERFORMANCE did a break in on my supercharged GSF. Then the ECU will be remove and ship to RR racing. we keep the RPM under 4K and the car runs pretty good. The exhaust tone changed little bit, sound like a boosted car.
