Joe - I called http://www.sound-performance.com/, as they are notorius for being the best here and he said the following:

Port and Polish would be $1000-$1200 + head removal / install. The guy that does them comes once a week and takes them back for bench testing and for the final work.
Labor for the heads would be $90 an hour, he said that a 350Z is a 12 hour job, but he couldn't quote the C32.
He has done many cars including his own 1000HP ride.
So far, they have done hundreds of heads with great success.

Every place that I have called said they are the best. I wanted to do a background check.

Last concern before we pull the trigger.....

What happens if we go forward and end with 400Whp and a clutch / tranny that slips?

i think our tranny is supposed to hold up to a massive amount of torque, and, with the clutch activated supercharger, the supercharger disengages when the car shifts to protect the tranny...

i am more worried about the mileage on my tranny and not knowing the history of it before i am worried about putting more power through it...

just my .02

Didn't you at one time say that Vadim was able to get more HP by adding boost, but something wouldn't hold?

690 euros= $894.45 US dollars

i would like to see the price at:

590 euros= $765.00 US dollars

if we can get several people together, then i don't see it being a big deal for them to knock 100 euros off the price for several orders...

Sounds good, but don't back out over $150.

Sounds like a good deal, I guess prices went down since last time I checked (about 2 years ago I think)...

jerry,

I took a vid of a short run full throttle at 40-95 ish (20-40 was around 80%). I find holding onto the camera with one hand a bit scary.
