As for milage, I am not sure to be honest. I can tell you that there are enough miles on it to destroy the OEM clutch. New clutch was installed a couple of weeks ago, still in the breakin stages I think. I think that with this kit and a stock clutch 8psi of boost will be the norm. Remember the kit made 513whp (peak, see first post) and the boost pressure at that point was 8psi. The kit is very efficient, and puts down a lot of HP/Psi of boost. The broad torque curve is a big factor when it comes to clutch holding power, and the OEM is just not built for it. Quote:

New clutch is still in the break in stage. The factory clutch only started failing when it got cold. If your in a warm climate you may be able to squeeze a little more life out of it.

Specialty Z 6-puck. Impressed with it so far but since its still breaking in, I have not pushed it yet
|
Might go ahead and do mine now so I can get it broke in before the turbo :D
|
Good idea, less to disassemble when adding the turbo later!

Another few pic of the jig here. As you can see this can be very time consuming, but at the same time must be done right, with high percision.
http://i137.photobucket.com/albums/q...d/IMG_7584.jpg http://i137.photobucket.com/albums/q...d/IMG_7586.jpg With the piping out, you can see how it would be very difficult to make a set of pipes that don't fit just right: http://i137.photobucket.com/albums/q...d/IMG_7587.jpg I also got a new 6266 turbo in a couple of day ago for a local build, so I thought I compare it to a turbo that is very common on the VQ twin turbo kits out there. For starters, have a look at the turbine housing difference in size: http://i137.photobucket.com/albums/q...d/IMG_7580.jpg http://i137.photobucket.com/albums/q...d/IMG_7577.jpg http://i137.photobucket.com/albums/q...d/IMG_7582.jpg The twin scroll turbine inlets are the same size as the entire inlet of a GT28 (T25) turbo. This is one of the reasons the twin scroll is so efficient. You have both banks (exhaust) powering/moving onc turbine wheel and one compressor wheel vs. two of each. The exhaust side of the turbine housings: http://i137.photobucket.com/albums/q...d/IMG_7581.jpg The compressor wheel of course will be much larger as well: http://i137.photobucket.com/albums/q...d/IMG_7575.jpg And of course, this is the business end, a 62mm billet compressor wheel: http://i137.photobucket.com/albums/q...d/IMG_7576.jpg |
Those jigs o.O
|
"It" moved a little when I looked at those pictures. :tup:
|
This should be the primary purpose for u bolt exhaust clamps :) nice work

Great stuff!

Well, I think it's safe to say that the most complex jig I have ever built is complete:
http://i137.photobucket.com/albums/q...d/IMG_7590.jpg http://i137.photobucket.com/albums/q...d/IMG_7592.jpg http://i137.photobucket.com/albums/q...d/IMG_7593.jpg Now it is just a matter of getting all the bends, placing them in the jig, and welding it all up. Like lego: http://i137.photobucket.com/albums/q...d/IMG_7594.jpg I have received a number of PM's recently from people that can't wait for this to become available. All the jigs will be done by the end of this week, and at that poing I will start the "official" production. The plan is to get 6 kits built as soon as possible and get them ready to go. Deposits of $3,000 will be taken, and at that point the following will go out: UpRev EMS 750cc Injectors with clips (plug'n play) 340 lph fuel pump FMIC BOV Waste gates Scavenge pump The turbo will have to be shipped to me first for the compressor outlet modification (welding a cast 2" 90deg elbow on the outlet). As soon as that is done, the rest of the hardware will be ready to ship. At that point the balance is due. I have already made 6 sets of FMIC brackets, oil reservoir tank, and scavenge pump brackets. On order is a lot of stainless braid hose with fittings, so I will be making all of those shortly as well. |

Looks like a bad *** erector set :tup:

You taking the US dollar at par these days Sasha? Or do they need to pay you in Cdn dollars?...
|
Can i give you my money now! :tup:

Well, it looks like 2 of the 6 kits are already "spoken for". Like you, they could not wait any longer..:tup: |
You mean, there's 4 out of 6 kits unaccounted for?!?
TAKE MY MONEY NOW!!! Screw the PMs, check your email Sasha lol |
That jig is awesome.

Its awesome that you are sharing all the steps that go into building the kit. The purchaser knows exactly what you are selling. I also like looking at the top notch craftsmanship.

Nothing is outsorced here, so each kit is built by me, in house so that all the QC is in my hands...the way I like it. |
Congrats Sasha! I think you have done a solid job promoting and developing this kit! Looking forward to hearing all the reviews from new customers...
|
^^Thanks Mark
and for the rest here is the link on turbo kit details, with prices: Nissan 370Z Forum - View Profile: Boosted Performance |
College tuition payed for..... or Boosted Performance Turbo Kit?!! Such a difficult decision lol. This would be the FI system i would go with any day over the competitors. Great work Sasha!

OMFG, I just saw that dyno chart. I couldn't look at photobucket so I CTRL + the sh!t out of my web browser. What's in the tuner kit? I have an oil cooler and uprev, just no downpipes. I didn't know it was thaaaaaat serious. When do we have to pay, I can put something together lol. Holy ****, was not expecting that kind of torque curve... or lack there of.
|
Time to take the company public Sasha! Where do i invest?... :roflpuke2:
|
Granted its a single turbo, a big one that is more or less along the lines where the torque should be no?
Great kit Sasha, definitely would like to see these on the streets! |

I couldn't help myself :tup: and I'm going to try to take the car to Vince at R/T tuning to do the real tune for it too! Should be awesome!

And yes, the kit makes excellent power all the way to 7500rpm. There is another dyno with a bit more boost (9.12psi I think) and it made 550whp at that boost pressure. The tuners (who have tuned a lot of these car from TT to s/c kits) could not believe how flat the torque was. The kit clearly works very well, and this is the efficiency of the twin scroll that I have been preaching for a while now. It really is the best way to boost a car. Heck even the new BMW's now go with a single twin scroll vs. the old TT kits. EDIT: found the 550whp dyno pull: http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b1...scan0001-1.jpg Link: http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b1...scan0001-1.jpg Looks like peak power was made at 9psi. Quote:

What is the additional cost for recirculated wastgates or is this now standard?
Also, high flow cat option? |
Payment sent!
Am I the first one who will be receiving the kit? This is such a perfect gift for my baby's 2nd birthday (even though it is late by a month, so I need to make up for it! lol) |
The graph says 12lbs of boost. Made more power at 9 than 12?
|
Woow!! now look at that flat torque!
Might sell my GTM TT and get this!! |
The flat torque is nice, however for entertainment purposes it's at 411. With my Gtm TT kit on my graph the lowest point is around 411. But the highest point is 496. I'm still very happy with what I have.

I have noticed that GTM dyno charts are very aggressive early in the rpm range. You can tell that by the way the torque goes up out of the gates, again, early in the RPM range. A lot of tuners will avoid this on stock blocks because it is a lot of stress on the engine. If you look at the 550whp chart you can see that the boost is already at 10psi by 3750rpm, so if the timing was advanced the torque would have shot way up in the 400's. Then as the RPM's go up, the torque would taper off. Instead, a nice smooth, flat torque curve is simply easier on the engine, prolonging it's life. EDIT: Here is a perfect example of the same kit with a different tuner: http://wrxatlanta.com/forums/showthread.php?t=29246 Note the torque curve between 3500 and 4500rpm...easing into it. I I am not arguing your numbers at all, or the kit it performs great. Just noting how timing/tuner have a large role to play when it comes to presenting the final graph/numbers. |
