Thats my concern.. though its very tempting.. ESS done by Boss and Maximus right? How about G power?? who does it? So far i heard the G power one would have overheating issues but thats on track which i believe should have been resolved by now..

Most LTA inspectors very blur, they will only recognize snail-like (ASA) type of superchargers. Those from ESS are so integrated into the engine that most inspectors will not notice. I never had any problems. Last year my car passed STA's inspection even though they took photos of my engine and under carriage. That was the first time they ever do that and I didn't know what for. I sold my car later and didn't keep it long enough to find out what could happen.

Re: Decided to pull the trigger for this MOFO.
Would be great to have a meetup for all these guys.
quick summary of the kits out there.
ESS has sold the most kits internationally , due to its reliability. if installed correctly, with 100% proceedures by following the English manual.
AA: Using Rotrex blower, the lower PSI kits output less HP than ESS, the higher ones , like 8psi uses meth which i didnt want to due to reliability.
VF has fault codes, torque management errors, alot of pissed owners. couple of the US m3 guys want to sue them.
Gpower SKII CS, on 6psi boost, not bad, but i dont wanna go with ASA this time after going thru 2 of them. 610 hp (448 kW)/590 Nm ,
Gintani: They are in testing now for a twin turbo kit, looks outrageous, shd be bloody quick. Their chargers are from Vortech also, V3 Si.
2007,2008 and early 2009 cars require update of rod bearings, main bearings and oil pump to new BMW specification before installation of kit.

With the added horses, you should mod to wider rear tires for better traction. ESS systems delivers power in a smooth linear fashion, great for daily drive and power delivered whenever you demand it. Super reliable too. Had it for more than 5 years without any issues.
