Default 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.
Pics of the Z. And my buddies Alpha 9



Pics of the bolt ons I bought before the turbo. I sent the nitrous back (never used)


Z1 25 row oil cooler
motordyne E 370 and tanabe sways


Aem intakes. For sale btw pm me for details less than 500 miles on them.

first pic of the car at S&R performance

And the build begins. The turbo of choice is the Percision Turbo 6266 CEA and Turbosmart Race Port bov and wastegate.









I will post more as the build goes on.

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. to where I thought the actual possible was impossible.

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!
