Yep and I have been holding off calling you for months now. I have the money to do everything I'm just trying to make sure I'm happy with my choice. Plus I may ditch this project for something else coming out in April next year ;-)

Guess I was not very clear, I may be done with the Z and getting a BRZ or FR-S.

On topic: talked with STS Friday and currently the 7AT is not supported for their kit. The piping does not fit around the transmission. If that was already known sorry for double posting.

I am calling them again Monday to talk to one of the RnD guys to see where they are at with progress if any on making it work.

What do you mean by safest? If you are talking about engine longevity then you will find that the kit itself makes the least difference and the tune makes the most difference.

Mine will be finished Monday or Tuesday of this week for a AT7 tranny. It took a little fabbing by the guys at Executive Performance in Meriam,Ks but looks great and as far as I know it will be the very first. I've driven manuals my whole life and other than a little lag between shifts it acts just like a manual. On top of that you can't out shift a computer. Once the methanol injection is complete it's off to the dyno. I hoping for something around 470 and up at 8psi.

Which methanol injection system have you decided to go with and have you had any experience with it in the past?

It's the methanol with boost controller kit that STS sells and no this will be my first. I was a Ford Mustang man my whole life until a year ago I bought my first 350z. I must say this has been the worst 6 month project of my life. I know and understand STS has never done one and when their own guy says it should of not be realeased yet, it makes me worry. They have done everthing to fix the missing pieces, wrong pieces, etc but first dyno we could only pull 390.37hp with 340.77lbs torque. Hell at 5psi it was only 322.22hp with 273.65 torque. Oh did I mention they sent the wrong sprayers for the methanol injection and sent a 2 gallon jug. Now where in the hell is a 2 gallon jug gonna go in a 370?? Next Monday it's going back in again. Project started in June....

Sorry to hear that you've had problems. I also got very close numbers to you around 415hp 365lb torque at 7.5 psi I am hoping to add methanol injection and bump up the boost in spring. I don't think i'm gonna go with their kit though and I was thinking of building a custom tank in the trunk because as you mentioned there just isn't much room in our car for any of the pre-made tanks. I had recieved a dyno chart from sts with higher initial numbers but then i added a resonator it seems to have dropped the numbers a bit. Are you running a resonator on your setup? And do you have hfc's or test pipes? I hope you get your problems resolved quickly, I am curious as to whether you feel the methanol injection is worth it.
