Wow, this is exciting. I run the v1 A-A kit on my 350z nismo and I always felt that there needed to be more lower end power. I made 450wHP at 12psi, 93 octane on a conservative tune, with the K&N filter still on. (running stock cats on a motordyne TDX2)

I recently picked up a 14' 370z nismo and like redondo, I planned to go FI TT's with a built bottom end. I'll have to watch this progress.

are you able to reveal which tuner(s) are you working with that will support this kit?

When will pics of the fully developed kit, with the air filter, be available?

Well, here is a screenshot of a video from the dyno today. It's the best I got. Lol. We are taking professional photos once it's tuned.

The filter is placed where you can remove it for cleaning by simply pulling back the fender liner.

You could also swap on a turboguard easily but I don't think anyone will want to unless they have a fully built motor.

Is this going to have the turn key option like the ace did? Injectors, fuel pump, tune...etc etc.

Also, if someone (me af) didn't want to go into the built motor arena and really just wanted 400whp daily (or rigorous track abuse) and < 550whp when doing power pulls (just to stay safe and be happy with the car for a longer time).....How would they go about that? Just control the boost with the interior mod you talked about?

Everything you need for a complete kit is on my site. I'll place what to buy for what power levels in the description of the supercharger.

Yes, there will be a way to control boost. Trust me it's going to have to happen or I am going to start selling my own line of pistons and rods.

See that's the thing I admire most about the work you do. You think ahead of not just that the product be good, but what the not so logically enhanced people may do with that great product and then blame you for it...lmao. As sad as it is, it's the reality. You minimize all obstacles that someone can run into due to negligence or ignorance, which is why your stuff lasts. I've seen many great products and ideas (not just with cars) go to sh*t because of how they were used or what people did with it...good stuff brotha

What’s the maintenance like on the c38R? Is it gonna need a dedicated oil cooler?

It comes with its own dedicated setrab oil cooler and reservoir. It doesn't require a pump so there isn't any wiring involved. What does this do? Aids in longevity and 50,000 mile oil changes!

Thanks.

Always disliked the design with the Stillen plenum so I went with the BP kit. Found out that PTE turbos no matter how you tuned them had too much of a spike on track so I was gonna switch to a Garrett G series hoping for some improvement but this might be the way to go!

This thing moves power way left on the graph. But it is also perfectly linear so it is extremely predictable. Just bleed off whatever boost you don't want at the top end. It really makes for a great track car. We will have a few heavy track use builds this year.

Flutter=chatter. Its not surge on the ace kits it's 100% the bov oscillating. I've said this a bunch of times. It's just audible from the supercharger inlet. I have my custom bov filter on the QRJ plus a filter on the supercharger so it eliminates the audible fluctuations of the bov under a zero vacuum situation.

The intake and filter cannot work on the vortech units. They get positioned too far up and over to get a pipe to them.
