I can do alot but I'm not a mechanic. I did my install with help from a friend that owns a shop. Everything I did was made easier with the lift but it was all 100% doable on stands at home. I made a few slip ups here and there with the caveat that my profession involves guns and not wrenches. If you get the kit, take your time, double check connections, invest in a turbo blanket, wrap everything including your wiring harness and then do a triple check on EVERYTHING you touched. Do all that and you wake up boosted with an awesome kit that will draw looks from the spooling sound it makes on the road and people looking underneath will be in awe of Sashas work on the manifold and recirculation. All this.

I think my tune is finally done, with ecutek traction control and without is night and day.

I love this kit sooo much!

You running E85 or 93? You have quite a bit of detonation

If I have an issue with my tune I am all ears.

I am running flex fuel, these videos were at E81. Are your referring to the backfire? That was during a flat foot shift.

What is need besides the full turn key kit?

1 Oil Cooler

2 Upgraded clutch??

Oil cooler and spacer is included. You'll need the clutch (and csc, flywheel also recommended), gauges, boost controller, a mile of header wrap, a radiator if you live in a hot climate, and a good tuner.

^THIS^

Chuck's physical help was key to my install so he has first hand experience.

Just a tip. If you plan to run an oil temp sensor its an awesome idea to take the spacer to a machine shop as soon as you get it and have them drill it and tap for 1/8 npt. Another piece of cheap insurance is a turbo blanket. I still have to tap mine but I got the turbo blanket post install after melting my trans harness. My fault for not raising the harness high enough but the amount of heat thats produced by the turbo is incredible and the blanket would've saved me tons of worry and heartache. (New harness 1900.00 /splicing is free but a pain.)

If the sensor is attached directly to the pan spacer, are you certain it will be submerged in the oil? I would worry that the oil level would be below the sensor.

The kit comes with a JWT spacer, the difference between that and the AAM spacer is the 1/8 npt port, so I'm pretty sure it works. Thats also where the AN fittings attach to the spacer.

And they are meant for a temp sensor? It would make sense for a turbo oil return (which is supposed to be above the oil level in the pan for proper drainage)... which is why I am questioning that location for an oil temp sensor since it may not be submerged in the oil.

Also.. would you want the oil temp sensor in the pan? Or in the pressurized feed just after the oil cooler?

I haven't installed one of these, so I am really just thinking outloud here...

Anyone know if this would work with the 2016-2017 stock nismo exhaust or I'd have to switch out to fast intentions?

Not directly from Sasha it won't but you could have the downpipe custom fabricated to make it work. I had to do that to get it to fit with my Fast Intentions exhaust since this kit isn't 'made' for a G.

It's that or buy an exhaust that fits the kit directly.

I shot out an email to Sasha but can anybody give a part no. and source for the air filter? Turns out my heat damage extended to the top of the filter. It's ugly

jwick 08-25-2016 11:38 AM

That's really odd.

Sorry, no help on the filter. I have a different compressor cover.
