Default 2008 350z turbo build

Hey guys was wondering if anyone could help me with what parts i will need and any advice on the build. Trying to keep the budget below 25000 will spend more if needed.

So far i have the forged rods and pistons picked out and upgraded cams but I am new to building motors since my last car was nothing but bolt ons and a tune.

either way, you are going to spent over $9k for the turbo

Premium turnkey kit... If I hadn't bought a Vortech I'd have gone this route.

I built my block, but really didn't save any money. I just bought slightly better parts with the $ saved. There's so much back n forth with a machine shop and that takes more time than you realize. It's fun and all that I'm not frowning upon anyone going through the experience... but you can save a ton of time ordering a built block.

If you got $25 bills to throw at this then look for a turbo'd 350z that's for sale. You'll spend half that on a decent build and have zero frustrations that go with a build...

If you MUST build this yourself get a built block from IPP, Z1, or Dynosty and let them help you along the process. Find a trusted aftermarket mechanic locally to do your work.
