I just wanted to share with all of you that on one the first baseline runs with the new GTR820 turbo kit the car made almost 590whp.  Those numbers are some of the highest in the country.  The car is still running the stock injectors, stock intake, and stock intercoolers.  The only modifications have been the upgraded turbos and the SSP 3″ downpipes.  They will be on the dyno for some time to come and I will post up some more information and dyno numbers as soon as I get them.

The video below is just after the car was running after the turbo swap.

There is also a new press release out of SSP that relates to their upcoming transmission upgrades.  They will be having some sort of online release on Monday the 26th at 5pm at sspperformance.com

Press release:

SOUTH SIDE PERFORMANCE WILL RELAEASE THE FIRST STAGES OF OUR COMPREHENSIVE TRANSMISSION AND DRIVETRAIN UPGRADES MONDAY, JANUARY 26 @ 5PM PST.

Sioux Falls, South Dakota (January 22, 2009) – Over the last two weeks, the automotive community has watched South Side Performance emerge with some of the most cutting edge performance upgrades available for the Nissan R35 GTR. With these parts came questions of just what might be next, and just how SSP would deal with the fears of drivetrain related failures. On Monday, the public will see just how committed SSP is to providing our customers with a car that can withstand all the fire breathing power provided by our big power modifications like our GTR820RR Turbo Upgrade.

The first of a full line of transmission and drivetrain upgrade solutions will be revealed on the SSP website main page on January 26 at 5 PM PST. Following our first release, we will be releasing another component of our transmission and drivetrain solution packages every few days over the next few weeks. When all is released, there will be three complete stages of upgrades for these systems and all the strengthening necessary to hold the big power provided by our upcoming GTR820HP kit.

So join us at 5 PM at www.sspperformance.com to see what the future of the r35 GTR looks like.
