Yeah it seems hit or miss if you already have intake/exhaust/HFC etc.

in logic way, if this system was good then some factories would release their cars with turbo system like that one (STS)

just go with GTM TT
It's a reliable kit. I've seen them in action and I've done a good amount of research. The Camaro, Trans-Am and Corvettes run these turbo kits all day.

The reason why they don't come in stock form is because car manufactures can't resonate the spooling sound that a consumer may find annoying (I wouldn't).

I'm just speculating, but do you guys think motordyne will release a "version 2" to this? I ask because I saw a guy on the 370 forum throwing that out there

Not too good, there's no incentive in sending my car out to Utah, so I may do a custom fabricated kit here in Maryland. The pricing they stated it was going to be isn't too "drop of a hat" worthwhile.

Hill's Garage... I've been going there for over 2 years now. Frank's tuner is one of the most down to earth, educational, and reliable tuners I've ever met.

It's not going to release anytime soon. They're still working on the 370z build.

Hey sorry for delay in the reply. I guess some-how my thread was unsubscribed and didn't show me any updates. I did notice an increase in power throughout the whole powerband. I think after getting on it a little bit the ECU fully adjusted to the new air-fuel and timing parameters. I could feel a difference from when the car first came off the dyno compared to the next day after driving the car for about an hour.
