Ess 620 Rwhp Z4m

Thought I would share some updated info on our test car for the new Vortech powered VT series Z4M supercharger. This is the car that will be taking a shot at the Nurburgring record later this month. This dyno is on 93 octane, stock motor except for upgraded pistons and rods. This new series of supercharger will be available later this fall. We will have pictures of the new kit available soon.

This series will be priced below our current CFR. It will have the same manifold and FMIC just a different blower. Pricing will be released soon.

Will this kit require pistons and rods or can it be slightly detuned for stock powerplants? or run on racegas when using higher boost levels?

We will have Stage 1 and 2 "500-600HP" versions that will not require upgraded motors. This kit is over 700HP currently.

Why the upgraded pistons and rods? The factory pieces have been shown to withstand these power levels (think HPF)

Is is because of the higher boost level needed to achieve the same numbers creates a higher effective compression ratio?

93 octane only? No meth? Impressive!!!
