S&R Performance single turbo kit?
 
Anyone seen the momentum single turbo kit from S&R Performance in Tampa, FL? A buddy of mine is considering going single turbo in his 370 and I thought I'd ask if anyone knows anything about them before he throws money away if its junk. Theyre claiming 500+ whp on the single turbo. Anyone have any experience?

Actually they are building my long block for my TT setup. I did plenty of research before choosing them to do the build and I have nothing but positive things about VSR. They used to be s&r.. Call and talk to bobby..

They made a great front mount single kit for the 350.

Momentum Performance never made a 370Z kit. They are now out of business and do not exist. Their one and only kit was designed and intended for a 350Z/G35 DE platform. S&R makes their own single turbo kits for the 370Z. They may be modifying a Momentum Kit to fit the 370Z, but it is definitly NOT specific 370Z kit.

If this is the kit you are referring to it is a "S&R" kit...not Momentum.

Gotcha. I may have gotten my info crossed. Either way, from the two other replies, looks like they're a good shop...

That's the top mount kit? I'm not crazy about the turbo location and plumbing, but people who have bought it seem to love it.

They're the ones who built Isamu's car, right?

:iagree:

Adding turbo heat to an engine bay that already has enough heat wouldn't be my first choice to place it but you can't knock results.

The worst part of that kit is the fact that the turbo sits directly under the intake charge pipe on the drivers side. This directly heats the pipe up and raises intake temps even more than they already are from heat soak of the bay.

Also, depending how they route the recirc pipe, that had a bit of problems also. On mine (powerlab) it hung to the passenger side and was susceptible to undercarriage scrape. I was forced to go over a new speed bump when in line for Six Flags and it put so much pressure on the recirc pipe that it cracked my wastegate clean off of the crossover pipe.

Your right that's why the turbo is Heat Wrapped. Not saying that will stop all of the heat but that kit is proven...

Why does Firedan's have sooooo much more power?

Oh, forgot to put the add text, he used race fuel. Q16 race fuel to be exact

I'm debating on selling my gtm TT kit and going with theirs and upping the boost just to see what it can do on a built motor...

Can wait a bit more and you will have an answer.
Nissan370 has a built motor and is doing break in now with the VSR kit and about to retune it for more boost. Link: http://www.the370z.com/forced-induct...ted-turbo.html

Life lesson of the day. With your turbo, among other things, it's always safer to bag it
