My only concern with the TT setup is the temps it brings the motors up to. My car is a daily driver so you can see my cocern. I am keeping track of the single Turbp that 98intique is perfecting. Might go that way depends on the results in the next year.

I have logged over 8k daily driven stage 2 boosted TT miles in Texas weather with not one issue. I have currently retired her for a while since I have another car to drive and simply cause I have well over 35k invested etc. As far as temps go, I can run the sh!t out of it with out any oil temp issues. It is a street machine only. Not into the whole "track" biz, so no track data to hand out. However I can speak on the fact I can rip she sh!t out of her time and time again in the Texas heat and sustain nice temps no prob. I just got a new DSLR and I am working on some vids for you guys to drool on maybe I will capture oil temps for some of you too.

So yes people buy all the SC's up! That way Turbo guys can stay exclusive a little while longer

What your saying will never happen people will always go turbo first if they can.Most of the time it comes down to the cost /simple install of a supercharger.

By the way what kind of flavor hatorade are you drinking

hahaha I love how no one can take sarcasm. It’s ok though, I am actually going to get a SC for my g37 sedan when I get one. Have nothing against SC's just messing with you guys. 3 of my friends here in Houston have SC's on their Z's, just got to poke some fun some times.

My concern is also the shock that you get on your internals from a TT kit. If they had a perfected single I would jump all over it. Sam made that very clear earlier. That's a big factor to think about when your gonna run stock internals for a bit.

It all comes down to personal preference really & how much your willing to spend.

KaienZ34 · 05-24-2011, 08:17 PM

If money was no issue, it would be TT for me.

KillerBee370 · 05-25-2011, 01:00 AM

I've got no problem going supercharger. I drove a turbo car... one that was stock WITH a turbo. Z's are a N/A engine and as such I will have to worry a lot less with fussy maintanence in the long run.

You turboheads can remain exclusive... it's all good.

Just letting everyone know, We are in production for IAT Gauge and Intercooler In & Out Temp Gauge. Just sayin, for all you worry bees!

Good info sam. As far as running a single turbo on the 3.7l motor, With proper tunning the TQ curve can be less aggressive, input?

Ok that's good, it just didn't look like it by looking at your name.

Mr.Squeeze, what do you run from 0-60 & 0-100?

Just curious. Maybe one day I too will decide on a SC kit...
