With the VB mod and the V1 on your Max it must be a great combo now! What is the tranny like when you floor it now? I can't wait for my mod to come in so I can get rid of the hesitation when I stomp on the gas when I'm at speed.


Yeah, doesn't the BOV sound great?!

Congrats Dave! Want to do another trade? My 18" ADR rims for your V1? Our trade the first went well, so how about it?

I wouldn't have any confidence with a SC in my car without the VB mod & tranny cooler. It feels the same.. firm when you push it, and quicker. Shifts into higher gears faster too. (Lower numerically, I dunno it sounds weird. )

Got Woosh? Heh.. damn, V2 .. wish mine was quiet now.. a certain someone [future intercooled (ive seen pic!) v1 setup ] just lemme know about sending the v1 to vortech for a rebuild + quieting tuning... i cant bear the downtime but its *SO* tempting.. [gf hates the whistling] .. *sigh*

Anyways, GET THE VB MOD FROM DON. You dont wanna have only 2 gears .. [heh, might end up that way anyways..]

Dave, you got run your car at the track! I have about the same performance mods as you do, and you're an auto. So, it would give me a good idea how I'll do if I get a supercharger. I'm guessing if you do run at the track, what...high 13s?

you gotta change your way of thinking about the whine from the v1. I used to be somewhat annoyed also, until one day a friend of mine pointed out to me that my car sounds like it is ****ed off. Ever since then every time I hear the whine, I get that don't F with me feeling.

you have a monster under your hood, enjoy it's warning growls.

I got in on Don's VB Mod group deal but I asked him to put me last. Reason for that is every time I order something in the U.S. to be sent to me up in Canada customs seems to hold it up for a day or two which would affect the required turnaround time.
That way when I send my VB down to Texas someone won't be hurting waiting for their VB.

Cumalot: Heh, I dunno when i will do that, if ever. I guesstimate low 14s rather than high 13s.. but you never know.

s1rch: I've heard it a lil quieter at last years Maxima day.. but yah, its loud, but i can take it. As for enjoyin it.. hell no If i hear it, that means im not boosting... mauhahahahahaha..

Vandanno: Canada? YIKES!
