As far as I know you can safely run 6-8 psi on the stock internals, you'll just need to upgrade the fuel system and electronics along with all of the standard turbo parts. I believe GTM will have a full kit that includes every piece you will need, but don't quote me on that.

I think they already do for it. As far as I know / have heard, they're just taking the G37 kit and changing it so it fits as a full bolt on. It comes with a reflash (I think it's actually a piggy back), and a new fuel pump. Pretty much an entire set without having to rebuild the engine.

Thanks for the clarification. Twin Turbo is a little much for me seeing as how mine is a daily driver, so I didn't look too hard into it. I was thinking that MAYBE the fuel pump wasn't included, but I assumed injectors would be, along with a reflash or piggy-back system. Of course if you want to run different boost a lot, a full management system would be a good investment...but I wouldn't do that until I built the bottom end

Yeah, anything above 450 hp and more than four pounds of boost... I'd be scared to run full throttle. Well, it's probably only going to be twin turbo, because the Z had twin throttle bodies, so I would imagine that a single turbo set up would require just more work... plus if you had one turbo for just three cylinders, we'd get much less lag and more reliability of parts. You could also run a roots type or a centrifugal supercharger too.

A friend of mine had a WRX that he had modded to be similar / better than the STi that was released. He had the bug-eye (which I don't think is ugly). He had a large VF turbo set to boost around 35 psi... and a downpipe. When he hit 4k rpm.... oh ho ho.
