My 5k budget mid mount turbo build

I think you are taking offense where offense shouldn't be taken. Sasha is saying that rather than try to make a kit based off of an existing design, he decided to go another route and design his kit based off of his preferences. He looked at the issues with the existing turbo kits on the 350z, and tried to rectify those by building one that didn't have those issues, and by building something that was more DIY friendly. At the time twin turbo kits dominated the market and we all know how to install those lol. They aren't something that your average enthusiast is willing to install by themselves. I don't think he is talking down or taking shots at you. I could be wrong though. I'm not trying to speak for the man lol.

Also if I remember correctly, JTrans kit was made after Boosted Performances.

Maybe I did I'm not sure but I busted my *** on this for someone to say it's there and I copied it when the version I made was just an idea to him. I never said I made the kit off just my idea and I gave props to BP from the beginning I think I made key changes and went a different route (be4 he released his version 2) and made it better. But it's whatever i said 100 times I'm not trying to start a war. I want to show what i did and I pretty sure I started with just a bunch of metal and fabricated everything with my hands. I have never seen his kit in person. I know I'm the new guy and no one is going to side with me but that's fine I didn't make it where I did in the army worrying about what people think of me. I'm sorry BP if I over reacted to the situation at hand and/or copied your idea's. This thread is about my build so from now on I won't be responding to any other post of the topic off MY build.

Haha I'm not "siding" with anyone. Everyone who has posted here has given you handclaps. I do congratulate you for your efforts. Better than me, otherwise I wouldn't have a BP kit. I'd have a Dragonbreath kit haha. But Im not a welder nor do I have the time to learn or design a kit, that's why I did go with a BP kit. I have followed BP since his user name was BoostedProbe on the 350z forums lol. I was sold back then.

Back on topic, you mentioned Z Nationals. I plan on attending. If you go im sure I'll meet you there. When are you planning on getting tuned?

valpozguy · 09-28-2014, 04:33 PM

I will be there as well, would love to meet all of you guys.
