Bobbylight, this kit comes with its own oil cooler so the Z1 is not really necessary. The kit also mates up to the CBE toward the rear of the transmission in the factory location where the factory Y pipe ends.

Oh I see, kind of. I can't really tell from what I can see from the e370 option on page one - In the pic below, would it bolt up at the first muffler (red circle), or would it bolt up behind it (yellow circle)?. Just curious as I am exhaust shopping at the moment and wondering if the motordyne would be worth the $ over say, a tomei single if half of it will come off when I boost it.

And about the Z1 cooler, I was asking if it would work because I just installed mine last week :ughdance:


EDIT: upon more google-fu I am guessing the kit would bolt up before the first muffler of the e370 (red circle).

You could use your Z1 kit and sell the pieces that come with the BP kit. You may have to use the lines with the BP kit though. I can't remember exactly how the V2 is setup.

The Tomei would actually be a better pair with the BP kit if it utilizes the stick mounting point. I used a modified AAM 350z exhaust on my BP kit. The reason I had to modify it was because the exhaust was a couple of inches too long since it was made for a 350z.

Dragon had it correct. The kit stops where the factory y-pipe would end. The exhaust you posted isn't an OEM exhaust so the comparison isn't really valid.

As for your Oil Cooler, Sasha will happily not send you the kit oil cooler and just credit you The cost.

V2 retains OEM location. If the car already has an aftermarket oil cooler or you choose to use a different kit, its 100% okay, just needs the oil pan spacer or CJM's full pan replacement.

^^^ what he said :tup:

I just cleaned my WG to try and fix my overboost problem. As I was getting ready to reinstall the WG, I noticed that I have this MVS port open. Is this my problem?

Bottom 3 ports should have 1 hooked to vacuum line - and 2 should be plugged - top ports helps control closing the wastegate 1 should be plugged and other to Boost controller.

If you are missing a plug from bottom - this is why you would be overboosting - if missing plug from top ports
you probally won't be able to boost over spring pressure.

Jwick/Sasha - feel free to correct me if I am wrong.

The above is correct.

What color springs do you have in the wastegates, what is your actual peak boost, and at what RPM does this occur?

Sasha, I'm in Red Deer and the curiosity about this kit is growing more and more... I may have to pay you a visit in the near future. I know Don (from Fort Mc) also want to get this kit in the near future so I'm very curious.

I have the red spring inside right now. I'm making ~8lbs when I reach near red line.

With the 7.25;b spring, I was making ~13.xx with the yellow 7.25lb spring. This was with the top of the WG open to air.

My side ports are closed with 2 plugs each. the open port is connected to the driver side charge pipe with a "tee." My WG had a good amount of carbon build up so I just cleaned them last night. Maybe the carbon build up was causing resistance and the diaphragm inside required a few more lbs of pressure to push against the spring. I do have 10k miles on the kit. Lots of smiles along the way!

I literally just took these pictures. You can see the 2 plugged ports in each picture. The top ports are left open (as you can see) so I can measure spring pressure to check if things are running right.

There was someone asking about where the turbo kit meets the CBX (I have FI). I went ahead and took this picture for you since I was already down there. You can see the metal flange by the lift's big blue bar. The BP kit does away with two "S" looking pipes on the FI CBX.

Here is a back to front view of the save flange where the two kits connect.

Can I ask anyone for the model spark plug that they received and if it was the stock gap that it was set to?

Jax, the plugs were gapped, the model is NGK Laser Iridium DILKAR 8A893026. Call me when you can. Ive hit some standstill walls and can't do crap right now.

I do have an extra spark plug socket brand new that I don't need

The spark plugs are GTR R35's and are gapped already.

You can use a 3/8" drive 14mm (9/16") deep socket for the spark plugs, along with some needle nose pliers. There is no need for a special spark plug socket.

Thanks for the info Sasha, the reason i'm asking about the plugs is because I didn't have them in my shipment and now I've also notice the air filter is not in my kit either. Can you get me a list that I can run down and check off and also get with me about these two items? I had my install scheduled this weekend and the plugs are ok albeit pricey for a spark plug but the filter is a one of piece I cant source.

Thank you in advance,
