What the hell? All turbos will by nature be "hot air turbos". even the STS turbos are hot air (exhaust is hot gas/air).

Sorry guys, no progress this week so far.. Im going to call STS and see what turbo they use for the 350z and then maybe take it up a lil. Looks like might need injectors.. AAM is using 600cc if I remember right (I'll look at their thread to know forsure) So I'm going to check pricing on those too. I found a guy who knows the oil scavager pump system well. He built a 600HP TT (GTM KIT W/GTM A. Trans) G35 4door that uses one. And hes got an exaust guy that can make the piping.

google smokey yunick fiero thing is nuts i remember seeing the special on horsepower tv years ago about it.

Guy took it to the extremes. +400 degree intake temps heated by the exhaust and coolant. It comes at the risk of fire hazard though. Some guy bought and restored the original car.

I know its cold out there, but anything new?????

Subscribed.. I am very interested in this thread. I want to do an FI system for my 370 but they are all so damn expensive but if I could do one for 5k then I would be very interested.

We all should call STS so they know how much interest there is in a rear mounted TT kit for the 370z. I'm gonna make a follow up call in the next couple of months. I'm waiting for the weather to get better, and save up some money.

Brazilbro 01-17-2010 03:58 PM

I called STS and sent them emails.. no one will return my call.. In my email I told them I wanted their universal kit, but I didnt know what turbo they would recommend with the 3.7 so they responded to my email asking me to call.. so I called a few times leaving messages but no call back... I'll try again monday..

motoextreme 01-17-2010 04:39 PM

Let us know if you have any luck man.

Zsteve 01-17-2010 05:35 PM

everyone should call and say we were looking into your system but since you cant call back, CYA. 10 or 15 calls like that might get them thinking.

GingaBreadMan 01-18-2010 02:54 PM

I'm surprised. They called me back the same day if not the next. I'm not gonna give up. I was going to wait 5yrs to go TT, but at STS's price I said why wait. Give them to spring, if we don't get a response I guess we will have to move on.
