I included the pic just for reference, but I believe that the application may be very similar.

Otherwise, you could mount it in front of the intercooler instead. The is enough room between the vertical center support brace and the condenser to run the lines as well. Last, but not least, you can always get creative and do any number of things.

For example, we're doing a build right now using our GTM 70mm Competition Radiator with internal heat exchanger. It is being setup so that the engine oil runs through the heat exchanger inside the cold side of the radiator. Keep in mind, this may not be feasible for other aftermarket radiators on the market since their internal heat exchanger may not be rated for the higher pressure put out by the engine since internal heat exchangers are typically designed for transmission fluid which is run at much lower pressure. We designed our radiator's internal heat exchanger to handle the higher pressure for precisely this application.

Subscribed for now... I need to take the time to read all of the threads with the technical details (e.g. oil cooler compatibility) that Mike@GTM mentioned in the first post. Holy smokes there's a lot!

Just out of curiosity, for any of the financing options, are there any penalties if one is able to pay if off early?

NismoZ370 · 04-15-2013, 03:59 AM

I am interested need to read into it more and talk to the wife hopefully I can convince her

Dzel · 04-15-2013, 07:33 AM

Sometimes it's better to ask forgiveness than permission! J/K I did that with my wheels and to this day I still can't hear the end of it.

khanhvu411 · 04-15-2013, 10:06 AM

Hang in there Nismo370z, I talked my wife into it but it was a longggg.....talk and a lot of promises

but what important is I got what I wanted

I will be joining the list soon, just need to verify couples addtional parts with the kit. Good luck

Thanks for the advice. I've been talking to her about it since I posted here. Today she said yes!

but I still want to know more about the kit.

Can the black cold air intake pipes in the G37 7AT kit posted in the other thread be selected as an option? What is the difference in spool time in the 16G to 18G. Is it going to be a very noticeable difference? I always wanted more power on the lower end so I think I may go with the 16G? If I have BERK HFC and ARK Grip Exhaust will this be sufficient? Will I need a tune for with my and the kit installed with the your flash or can you include them?

What kind of warranty comes with the kit if any? When is payment due?

Powder coating is an additional cost option we have available. It's an additional $240 for the gloss black powder coated piping.

The 18g's spool pretty quick as it is. That said, the 16g's will spool a little faster, but the big difference is in transient response. Since the 16g's are smaller turbos, they will be more responsive to throttle inputs than the 18g's.

I'm not sure how long those HFC's are going to last with a twin turbo kit since most HFC's for these cars aren't designed to handle the heat from forced induction. That said, you will be fine with either the stock cats or test pipes. Our Turn-Key kit comes with our tune and it will be setup for your particular combination of components.

We offer a standard one year warranty on our parts and workmanship.

As for payment, we will be announcing the date we will need payment as soon as we have determined when the kit will be ready to ship.

Larry

According to the volume of the new pan vs. the stock pan, you are looking at roughly 3 quarts extra capacity.

khanhvu411 · 04-15-2013, 10:12 AM

Anyone know if I order addition parts like oil cooler, spark plugs, gauges...will GTM ship them long with the kit or they will be ship separately.
