Blackonorange's STS Turbo Build!! - Done by Speedtech Saskatoon

blackonorange · 03-01-2012, 07:58 PM

Well guys ive had the kit for a while but its just taken a while to get everything settled but anyways here we go!!

The Car - 09 370Z 6MT sport/touring 30k km

The Parts! (btw everything was packaged professionally STS did a very good job and everything was perfect!)

I went with the ball bearing turbo upgrade and 7lb spring

The car has been in the shop for about 3 weeks now but they didnt start working on it till the past monday!!! During the 3 weeks STS has been contacting me twice a week asking how it was going, and the install wasnt even started yet!! Great customer service on their part! Couldnt be happier!

I have a video of the base run dyno but ill post it later, the stock dyno was 273whp and 237wtq!! Now on to the install pics!!!!

Intake pipe coming from the back around to the intercooler!

Da PIPES!!!!!

Big ole cheese grader hangin out!

The snail and exhaust pipes!!!

The Y-Pipe!!! Note: this is the old y pipe that comes with the kit STS has since changed their y pipe and you can see it with the dual resonaters on their thread

my favourite shot!!! Cheese grater and all the pipes !!!

Tommorrow is gauge and tuning day so hopefully ill have some pics of under the hood and maybe just maybe a dyno vid !!!

Glad I was able to help out. The wheels look amazing. Hope your ready for boost.

Rocketogre · 03-01-2012, 08:45 PM

That intercooler is certainly and interesting design. Is there some kind of divider build into the center tank to help distribute the air evenly?

i looked inside and yea it looked kind of like a baffle idk it was hard to see

Mr.Squeeze · 03-01-2012, 09:28 PM

In for results, if you can when you get the car tuned post a boost graph.

Good luck with the rest of your install looks good so far.

NYBladeZ · 03-01-2012, 09:54 PM

awesome build thus far can't wait to see the final results, good luck.

Jordo! · 03-01-2012, 10:06 PM

What cfm/hp is the FMIC rated for?... looks a bit on the small side...

That Y pipe is massive -- what's the diameter?

Otherwise, looks really good -- good luck!

blackonorange · 03-01-2012, 10:06 PM

Thanks guys I will post all the graphs I can after the Dyno quick question tho , what grade of oil you guys running after going FI ?

You gotta remember the intake temps will be Low with all the travel from the back of the car I'm sure it will be fine and I forget what the y pipe was I wanna say 2 1/2

tower74 · 03-01-2012, 11:26 PM

Trust me you are at the worst part of the build

....Knowing that it will be done soon and not wanting to wait. It was tearing me apart waiting for mine to get finished. Definitely what to see your numbers. I'll try to post mine on the STS thread after this weekends dyno run. Best of luck with the rest of the build!!!!

tower74 · 03-01-2012, 11:27 PM

By the way your girl looks like mine...except the wheels...oddly enough same turbo system.

DIGItonium · 03-01-2012, 11:41 PM

Sweet! There's a guy in my town who has a tuned STS 350Z VQ35DE. On Dyno Dynamics, he got roughly 407 whp and 399 ft-lb at 9.5 PSI. From the curve, it doesn't build max power until 5k, so it looks like a big bell curve. I haven't checked to see what it's like on our platform.
