Could have done an electric dump or boost actuated dump for a fraction of the price. BUT... his exhaust is new, I'm sure it will look good.

I have exhaust hardware if you need it, bolts and gaskets. Just drive down and pick it up... just bring the other 370z hood. ;)

(Ill swing up for the hood if you are doing the vbands)

I wanted the CF cans from the start and didnt want to pay the premium. I said F it, I want to turn up the boost so I was able to justify the 3" to my wallet. That hood is all you man, I have no way to move it otherwise it was going to the dump. :ugh2:

As heavy as that thing is he might need to get permits to move it :rofl2:

Aint that the truth. Theres so much sound deadening on it, it has to go by flatbed.

Ok man. I'll snag it in the Fall if that's fine.

I'm literally going to hack the hood up. Fair warning!

You got it. I am having the roof on the house done this fall and I was gonna toss it in the dumpster when it was here. I'll save it for you if you make sure you pick it before this coming spring.

You will have to if you want to move it by yourself. :roflpuke2:

Are you swapping just the cans or did you find a whole 3” exhaust?

whole 3" minus lead pipes.

Built a little parts hanger out of scraps around the garage. :tup: Bonus shot of janky azz hood.

Skip is my idol next to napoleon.

How are you planning to make the transition from the downpipe? Get it refabricated?

I dropped Sasha a line about a new piece. :tup:

Madwi's picture dump and crap
 

Does he make a 3” adapter?

I don’t know anything about his exhaust connections other than the factory setup because I had to custom fab mine since G.

I had the kit shipped with the OEM connections cuz everything from the radiator to the tail end of the y-pipe on a Z/G are identical. The FI is exhaust is not the same from header to lead pipes, so I had to get it fabbed.

When I ordered the BP kit I think there was an option for 3" FI exhaust. I havent heard back from Sasha but I will let you know once I do.

How sweet it is

Mr. Gbrettin and friend stopped by today to pick up EW's janky hood. They renewed the spark in the Z so I took the old girl out for a last spin before winter hibernation. She looks, sounds and feels great. :rock:

:driving:

Put insurance on the car a couple weeks ago and went for a nice cruise around the city. Turbo **** the bed about 300 yds from the house. Ripped the car apart with ZS-carpenter and found the blades had hit the housing. Turbo is sent off to Compturbo for evaluation and fixing. Went to put the FI exhaust on the car and got the wrong part sent from Boosted Performance. Z is on lift back into hibernation. Removed insurance from the Z. :gtfo2:

Life of a boost junkie sucks sometimes.

Yeah, **** happens. :driving: Mod, drive, break, fix, drive, mod, drive set on repeat.

Great work done on the Z, Scott!

Thank Raf!

Well, the first conversation is not off to a good start with Compturbo. This is their response for their **** breaking at 6k miles.

Hi Scott,

Sorry for the late reply was out of town Monday and Tuesday just catching up now on emails. We have and disassembled and inspected the turbocharger and it looks like the internals are not usable sadly this was the worst case scenario however we can replace the CHRA it would take about 3 weeks so we can hit that mid June deadline for you. The cost for the CHRA is about $1200.00 give us a call and ask for Ernie if you need more information.

Thanks,

Juan

Tell Juan to eat a fat Juan. Get a different turbo brand.

Looking at garret turbos now.

CJM oil pan should be here in a couple of weeks, had the -10AN ports installed for oil fed turbo.

I was never a big fan of those greaseable turbo's. When I was at Elliott TurboMachinery. I've seen grease get cooked and turn into wax and asphalt around bearings. If you are going with a different turbo company. Tell the chitheads that you want the old turbo back, uncleaned. This way you can look at the grease and see what condition it is in.
