Really like the placement of the turbo compared to an STS, or normal engine bay setups. I'm sure it doesn't get as hot, or get too laggy. Either way looking for more vids...flybys!

Must have missed it, I have been getting a few..No plans for the HR as of yet.

Kingbaby 06-25-2012 10:50 PM

Roger, well it's been confirmed that 370z headers/cats bolt up to a HR and its exhaust. Well...just asking!

Congrats again on a well built kit

Thanks for all the pm's and support as well everyone. Nice to see great support of a new product.

Can't wait to get these built and out the door.

:tup: Time to wait for you to make the jigs then I am purchasing a kit. Just have to wait for you to make the kits for the 5 others ahead of me.

5 ahead of you? Where is this list? Some of us have been offering to purchase the kit from day 1. Until Sasha puts out a list it's all wishful thinking who is ahead of who. :stirthepot:

Got the car on the dyno tonight, there were so many cars ahead of me. A big shout out to Greg and Sebz at specialty z and horsepower solutions here in Edmonton. Class act bunch of guys. Thanks so much for staying till 12am to get me on!

With that being said its to late for me to post graphs ect... Will have more info for you guys tomorrow.

wheee! 06-26-2012 07:20 AM

lol, marathon tuning for Greg and Seb! They started at 9 am every day since Saturday and tuned into the evenings! They are gonna sleep well on the plane...

Thanks guys! See you next year!

Boosted Performance 06-26-2012 07:35 AM

That is great stuff from Greg, Seb and Neil....thanks guys.

Sorry I did not make it out last night to the final tuning session....anticipating some good results with the EBC vs MBC.

JMac88 06-26-2012 07:56 AM

First off I would like to start off by saying I was very disappointed with the AEM truboost. It did not/would not hold the boost as it was supposed to. This oppinion might change pending what their customer service says, but in the time I needed it to be clutch it just was not there.

Before talking about the results, i would like to point out just how linear the hp/tq curves are as this will be somewhat important.

The hp curve was so linear that peak hp was always towards the top of RPM. So to simulate running 9psi at the top, Greg and Sebz felt it was safe to raise the boost to 12psi in the low/mid range so when the boost tapered off at the higher RPM it would be right where we wanted. Keep in mind that the results simulated were with a drop in boost pressure, not a spike ect...

With that being said after talking to Sebz and Greg, they both felt that with a working boost controller holding steady at 9psi that the car would produce the same results. We will be putting this to the test once I get the EBC situation resolved and get more dyno time. Don't know how fast this will go as I am gone for half of July, but I will work as quickly as I can.

I would like to point out that I am not saying my car is running 9psi, clearly it's up to 12, just simply stating that peak hp was at 9psi and that hopefully in the near future we will not need to crank it to 12 for those results :happydance:

Again, I would like to thank Gerg and Sebz for their awesome work! I learned a ton while you guys were here and I look forward to next year (if you guys can put up with the late nights :tiphat:)

The FMIC weighs more than the crash bar, so it is a substantial amount of aluminium there.


Can you please move on. Everybody has gotten over it except you. I am not sure if you are going to be at a disadvantage if I lose a couple of customers....last time I checked there is only one person on the payrol here...and that is me. If it brings my business down...I guess I will just have to live with it.

1. Is there anything in the works to make this kit available for AT drivers?

What are the specific limitations that prevent it from working with the AT?

2. CS :facepalm: that's all... :ugh2:

wheee! 06-26-2012 10:42 AM

Very impressive results James. It is too bad that the boost controller was flaky, but I guess this is the disadvantage of tuning at midnight!... No parts stores open!

Either way, the 550whp is very impressive but the 400 ft-lbs tq at 4300 rpm even more so! Great kit!

Now go buy some track wheels and get your money's worth out of this monster!

Nixlimited 06-26-2012 10:52 AM

Get an HKS boost controller. I think those are generally known as the best in terms of EBCs.

Not at the time. I would need a donor car to work with in order for this to happen. This is not something I will be looking at in the near future. I now have 3 kits available between the 350z and the 370z..and it is more work than I can handle at this time.

Crossover pipe from passenger side to driver side. The A/T oil pan is massive.

Any pics of this? I haven't seen the build of this kit, forgive me. Just trying to wrap my mind around why it couldn't work...

that's what she said.....:shakes head:

and the "eh" is normal my one friend i talk to alot lives in canada so it grew on me lol

just sucks that mine is my DD and you are sooo far away or you could take a crack at my 7AT i want forced induction bad.

plus now more than ever that i saw a new thread last night about GTM (not stirring up problems) is releasing a 7AT transmission upgrade so whatever kit i go with i can go for bigger numbers and have a bulked up tranny to handle it all.

as i can see you got some pretty big numbers from a single mid-mount turbo. congrats on that.

theres pics in their build thread of this kit. decent amount too. i kinda see what he means though since our 7AT oil pan from what i understand is larger so where his crossover pipe cuts across it just wouldnt work. with some reworking of the piping kit i'm sure it is possible eventually.

theaudir8fan 06-26-2012 11:15 AM

^go to the original build thread, there is a bunch of them :D

Congrats on the higher numbers, this thing will make my car look really slow

What is the pipe clearance under the MT tranny?

Do not have an exact number, but you can wrap your fingers around the pipe.

Yes there is a healthy demand for this kit, as it does have a lot of advantages over the other options out there. The main one being a savings of about $2000+ (kit and install) over kits capable of producing same power at the same boost level. If you decide to install it yourself then the savings go up to $3000+, as it really is easy to install.

Just think of all the things you can buy with an extra $3,000 :tup:

I think that if I build 10 kits right now, they would all be gone in a hurry. There has been a lot of PM's as well since the results were posted :tup:

Thanks, and yes it is just an awesome picture. If you have one installed, it will bring happines with the push of a pedal.

Hahah...good to hear you have started the part collection.

In the next couple of weeks I plan on ordering a lot of materials for these kits. It will be a good chunk of change for a small guy like myself, but it sounds like it will come back in a hurry.

Thanks Sam. I am sure there are a lot of faster cars out there than this. This however is just the tip of the iceberg, and the turbo in reality is still sleeping. I am sure you would agree that the billet wheels don't even wake up till 20+ psi.This car is also a DD during the summer, so things were kept conservative, to a degree. The 67mm turbo would have yielded even more power at the same boost level as well. In time I guess, once people start building these engines we will really see this thing shine with the larger turbo and a 1.32a/r housing.







The kit will come with all springs for the wastegates. So, the end user can select whatever combination they wish, to run whatever boost level they desire. The boost controller will ensure that the boost does not fall off a bit at the upper rpm range.








:bowrofl: ....really, so people can't make a joke anymore? If one finds that offensive then I feel sorry for you.


very interesting. This is very much what I would be doing for my Z setup, setting it up as a daily driver so knowing I had major overkill in the build makes me feel better.

erkthejerk73 06-27-2012 04:15 PM

sasha why not post up who is confirmed in getting a kit and start the line. then you can stay home and not go on a 2 month vacation!

Looks like someone took a logic class or two. Actually Perception IS Perception. Reality is the truth behind the percption.

Example: If two people see an accident from different sides of the street and one witness swares on her life that person A caused the acciden't and witness 2 says its person B...yes, perceptions is their perception. However, If witness one's statement wrongfully sends person B to jail, then the "reality" is that an innocent person went to jail. There is no perception of them going to jail; its a reality. When our preception is wrong then so is our reality.

Consider this: When you say I've wronged you and I say I'm sorry, there is nothing more I can do. For at this point any further issue belongs to you.

There is nothing confirmed. The only thing that would confirm a kit going out to a customer would be deposit for a kit. I don't want to take deposits at this time, the kit is in the final stage of R&D (putting miles on it at this power level) so that still hase to be complete. I also don't feel confortable taking money this far ahead of time.

Things change, people take different paths, sell cars....ect. It would be of no benefit to start anything till spring time when the kits are ready to go.
