Looks like there is a healthy demand for these kits, so I plan on getting these out as soon as I can (but will not rush and sacrifice quality). Once these are all out, I will start taking deposits on the next 6 kits. Hope to start with this some time in January, so keep this in mind for the tax return season...:)

You mean installation manul? If so, it will be full of larger color pictures with detailed instructions.

Everything will have a lable on it as well, indicating location.

elperuano 10-15-2012 12:46 PM

Pop outs also??

SS_Firehawk 10-15-2012 12:53 PM

I find myself jealous when I see someone put down the deposit lol. I'm going to buy one, but I need to be patient. I won't be back home to drive the damn thing till at least Jul of next year, besides maybe a week while on vacation. I just want it in my garage just so I know I have it waiting for me.

elperuano 10-15-2012 01:39 PM

The sad realization that I will not be the only one to enjoy this kit has finally hit lol

Boosted Performance 10-16-2012 07:10 PM

Good to see things arriving. All the FMIC's and fuel pumps are now on the way to customers (all 5). The Exa scavenge pumps have been sent out today as well. I am waiting on a few shipments myself also.

Turbos, BOV's and wastegates for the first three kit will be going out in three weeks as well. I am busy as well making all the components for the 6 kits... things are going well so far.

Mine just came in today. I can't wait for the rest to come in :tup:

:iagree: I wanted to turbo this car so bad... It would help even more if the Z had dct. there's about a 600-700 hp threshold on those until you need to mod the tranny. At best, on the stock tranny we could push about 5 lbs of boost for about 375rwhp. Any further and we'll need tranny upgrade components. Turboing the AT will cost @ minimum $25k.
With the 2015 possibly coming as a Turbo? I'd rather upgrade that car with the plumbing to do more at half the price. I will continue modifying the suspension and body on my current Z. Also making fine tunes to engine performance, then get a next gen... This Z i will give to my wife. If i can make this an N/A car that can get 12.7 on the quarter? I'll be happy for now.

Dzel 10-19-2012 05:59 PM

I had this very same conversation with a friend of mine. You can only go so far on HP before you have to do some major engine mods. I'm seriously thinking of starting with a car that has a higher HP platform and either trading in the Z or using it as my daily driver. I do love my Z so it'll more likely stay as my DD

elperuano 10-19-2012 06:50 PM

^buffest cat I ever seen!

blackonorange 10-19-2012 08:15 PM

Sasha , you seen how low my car is. I'm worried about clearance, is the turbo the lowest point on the car? I can't remember how low it hung on James' car

Dzel 10-19-2012 09:25 PM

There's a measurement he did in this thread you may have to search but if I remember correctly it's actually nicely tucked away and that yoour bumpers are actually lower than the turbo.

JMac88 10-19-2012 09:44 PM

Everything is above the skid plates

Boosted Performance 10-19-2012 10:36 PM

Sometimes you just have to let the pictures do the talking:

ANMVQ 10-20-2012 08:12 AM

Awesome pics Sasha,! man everything is nice and tucked. To the auto guy? 375 WHP will need a tranny upgrade? I hope not I'm over that now and will be closer to a 100 over that. :/

Dzel 10-20-2012 08:17 AM

Sasha on the you tube bids it shows 10lbs of boost is that safe to run with these engines?

Mr.Squeeze 10-20-2012 08:49 AM

Wow looking good Sasha :tup:

10psi of boost does not really mean antyhing to be honest. It is much more important to look at the torque and power the car is making.

The torque never goes much past 400ft/lbs, and it is done so by the tuner, and not a limitation of the kit. It is done through ignition timing adjustments to prolong engine life.
