Trust me...I've thought about it, but the guy I work with is still a kid. He's 20 years old and still goes to college. The car thing is his hobby and he makes money off if it as well. I don't think he'd have time to be knocking out turbo kits.

Thank you...but there's a new problem now. Since I put race gas in at the track, my motor has developed a ticking noise from the top part of the motor. I went to see a friend at Infiniti and he tried resetting my VVEL Thursday and Friday...the noise is still there. So now we are going to do a compression test this week.

Th car still drives fine, AFRs are on point, gas mileage is around 15mpg, and I still did 1 more 1/4 mile run and have been boosting it since with no problems.

Thank you. I'd estimate my power to be around 450-470whp with the trap speed. It's definitely not making the 506whp when I was tuned at Z1, but I am just running a GReddy TT base map that Z1 sent me. I don't want to get the car retuned until it's 100%. I was ready to get it tuned until the noise in the motor started on October 1st.
