1ST 7AT TOP MOUNT TURBO BUILD.. By S&R Performance
 

The build has been in the works for a few weeks now. Its starting to build momentum now so I thought this is a good time to start the thread. I bought the Z 5 months ago and new right away it need more power so I bought some bolt ons and had the car tuned. I still felt the car needed more so I started for hunting around for f.i. options and decided on S&R Performance because that was what I had in mind before I even came across them.So far Bobby (the owner) has been great with me as I am probably much more involved in every step of this build than your average joe. He is always willing to awnswer any question I have any time. Even like today (The 4th of july) He called me to talk about a few things about the car. OK so on to the Z, its a 09 auto with sport pack and has 6800 miles on it.

I will post more as the build goes on.:tup:

How much is this build roughly costing ? Was thinking of doing similar.

call them for details

Ok...was just wanting a general idea...I'm east coast so won't be where you are getting it done.

Do you live in Georgia? If so I am only a few hours away! We are located in Tampa, FL

Down pipe looks awesome... can't wait to see how the routing of the intercooler piping to the throttle body is going to work out. :tiphat: to where I thought the actual possible was impossible.

Off to a nice start.

Any plans to beef up the trans?

Sorry for being a stickler, but is that the 350 exhaust? I am pretty sure the 350 Motordyne exhaust is called the "shockwave 2"? The 370 is known as the E370...

Sub'd!

Yes the trans will be getting upgraded next year and your prob right i named the exhaust wrong. :(
