\ New from VF: 510hp 997S 3.8L /
Hello everyone. We have been offering superchargers for both the 996 and 997 for many years now and due to popular demand and substantial data we've gathered, we are proud to announce a change in the supercharger designed for the 997 Carrera S models (3.8L).
The VF510 Special forum pricing available thru Vivid Racing here: https://www.6speedonline.com/forums/...group-buy.html
Designed and built-to-order using the latest in manufacturing technology, the VF510 utilizes custom intake piping and aftercooling design to provide peak performance without sacrificing reliability or drivability. Using a Vortech V3 self-contained supercharger, there is no longer any need for extra oil lines or heavy oil coolers. The V3's large size also allows us to reduce drag on the motor by spinning the V3 at a much lower RPM, therefore, also creating much less heat.

I have the VF Kit with the V3 S/C brought from Vivid ~ 2 yrs ago. Is there an upgrade to the VF510 version for a nominal price? I suppose your power was achieved via ECU reprograming and a smaller pulley? Possibly a resistor change as well?

It would all depend on how many of you guys are really interested and what Vivid Racing would like to do.
I've been getting some PM's about it and I've contacted Vivid. We'll see what we can do.

Now is the time guys!! The number of kits is cumulative for both 997's and 996's so tell your friends and it doesn't matter if they order a 997 or 996 supercharger kit. They will all add up to push it to the higher tier discount!!

Rep Power: 0 We've never tested or had any direct experience with any modified/aftermarket intake plenums, but many of our past clients have had success installing our 996 and 997 kits with various plenums in the past. (ie.- IPD plenums) and some have even seen gains. Again, we've never done our own testing because we design all our kits for 100% stock cars, but we have heard from others that it does work.
