Correct there are only 3 'official' TT kits in the works or already released (GTM, AAM, Greddy) but HKS announced plans for an '10 TT release bu haven't heard anything since. I'm leaning towards S/C anyways so I'm stoked about the GTM and Stillen options coming. For those not looking for 700whp beasts, I think S/C is the way to go for the 370.

-Glad to know we only have to wait about two weeks to see final pics and possible numbers. Im sure all the hard work is going to produce some decent numbers.
I will be very sad to see my intakes go though. And there is a big number of us that bought intakes that are prolly going SC, but will be worth it times ten in the long run!

I think things are looking good for the 370z and F/I options. I am definitely saving up my pennies for one of these kits. Looks like GTM is trying to corner the market.

This is on the JWT site under News and Updates.

Sneak peak of the new '07+ VQ HR Twin Turbo System Date:3/16/2009

For those who have been asking how the VQ HR JWT Twin Turbo Systems are progressing, here is a look at the prototype system on a test car. The production kits are scheduled for release in early summer ‘09, starting with the ‘07-‘08 Z. A 370Z version is anticipated for late summer based on demand.

I was curious so I called JWT today. The 370 TT hasn't been axed, but they haven't started work on it. They're still finishing up their 2007 350Z kit.

3 years later and they're still working on it?? So the ETA for the 370Z kit is what, probably in 2015?

I think the HKS is just a setup kit not a full kit. No intercooler, ECU, Intake etc.
I would think they will wait until the summer to release there kit.

so I was hoping that the dyno and pics would be up this week like they were advertised to be but I guess they won't be up till maybe next week. I understand things happen but I'm still a bit sad in the pants.

Sorry if it sounded like we were releasing pics this week, but we are on schedule for what I said last Friday. We're almost done with the polishing and final installation and will be on the dyno early next week. Pics, numbers, and videos will be available after the tuning is complete.
