I will be writing a full review with pictures and video shortly. In the meantime though, I'll provide some feedback. If I had one word to describe the car it would be effortless. Effortless in the sense that the car is far more capable performance wise than anything you could want it to do. No longer is the car the restriction, it's the driver. The moment you roll onto the throttle she wants to scream. I took the drive home extremely easy, but even doing so you sense immediately the car is stupid fast compared to stock. The turbos spool up quickly and you can feel the car begging you for more. I've had fast vehicles but nothing I've owned compares to this Z.

I also had Z1 motor/trans mounts installed that feel phnomenal. Vibration certainly increased but it's not unbearable. The benifits completely outweigh the drawbacks. I highly recommend them.

Additionally, I went with the AAM 3" exhaust that sounds amazing. It has the perfect low deep tone I was looking for when taking it easy but absolutely screams when you want it to.

All in all the car is everything I wanted it to be and more. The setup and work done by AAM has been outstanding and it truly has made me love this car more than I could imagine. You can't help but smile every time you drive it.

You guys that are having the same setup installed will not be disappointed! The wait was completely worth it!

Thanks for providing the community with some initial feedback!

One thing you didn't mention - the schoolboy smile you had after driving it around the block once.

Hi all! I've been a lurker around these parts for quite some time and have recently been following this thread/in contact with Max when it started. I usually post to the G forums, but I wanted to use my first post here to thank AAM for working on this project and advancing the VQ communities!

Big ups to Max for putting up with all my incessant questions/calls! Your service that you have provided thus far is definitely one of the reasons (besides the other obvious ones in the first post) that I will be joining the AAM Competition TT Owners Club in the coming months.

I have gained a lot of knowledge from the posts on this forum, so hopefully I can start being more of a contributor.

You have been nothing but a pleasure to communicate with and providing you with insight/information is why I'm here. Regardless, thanks for the kind words!

Welcome to the "the370Z" community!

Robet will be getting his back Tomorrow so hopefully you will see some initial feedback from his.

We have 3 more in the shop we are looking to finish up over the next week as well.

User reviews, user submitted photos and hopefully some independent dyno results will start showing up over the next few weeks, I would assume.

very nice.

i may be down that way to see an old AAM employee in a couple weeks. maybe i'll have to swing by the shop.

see what kind of re-tune deal we can work out lol if you havent noticed my avi pic is on the AAM dyno

i think i may need one because i feel some TQ loss with these straight pipes now. but the sound makes up for it lol
