6 speed vq35 was making 400whp at 9-10psi

I'm assuming it's not gonna be intercooled?
For the price I'd probably go with a GTM SC kit. Although the STS turbo's do sound sick lol

Yes its going to be intercooled and going to be pushing over 400hp to the wheels. Direct bolt on kit and comes with tunning.

Any more details? tuning via Uprev Osiris?
Why don't they mount the turbo close towards the trans? Shorter piping, faster spool and you can muffle the sound at least. It's still out of the engine bay. Kinda like the single turbo options for the DE 350Z/G35.

the set up is going to be the almost the same like the 350z turbo kit.

tooooo much for a single turbo that is an easy design and install. I like that its a single turbo but it should only be a 4K kit max.

ya right. 4k max. Its not a civic turbo kit. ITs a z. SFR turbo kit retails over 6k Turbonetics retails about 5k. You pay for what you get for.

Yea right the SCs for the Z that had to basically design the whole concept and move things around and design a couple new parts are the same price. STS has to put a trubo in an open space and connect some piping and FMIC. STS wont be selling many of these kits with the SCs being the same price putting out the same or more power.

Sounds like they are trying to cash in on the market here. Guess you gotta pay to play, especially these days.

For me I always include TQ when talking about power. And a SC will never be the same as a turbo for that reason. HP sells cars (and FI kits in this case), TQ wins races.

I'm liking these torque numbers. Might be the reason I don't go with the stillen.

As we speak, it am ordering in all the parts to design a single rear mounted turbo for my car. utilizing a guniune gt35r .82 a/r, tial waste gate, hks bov and air to water intercooler.

Q8y_drifter · 08-24-2010, 10:53 AM

air to water? idk :/
