Default 350z garret gt40 build

I have an 03 350z. i have it jacked up and all the covers off in the engine bay. The strut bar off, the intake off, and that's it. I would like to have photos or anything that can help me go through the process. I am looking to do a garret GT40 turbo with 1000cc fuel injectors, new fuel rail, competition clutch and flywheel, inter cooler and piping, ect. The powerlab kit looks as the best kit on the market. But instead of the g35 turbo, i want to put the garret gt40. Anything that can help me with anything as far as where to go from here with the motor, or buying items for this operation to work , would be greatly appreciated.

You should call Intense. I know they have done a few Powerlab kits with various turbos at the customers request...

your engine can not support the gt40 with the mods you have listed.I mean it can but the turbo won't run at its full potential. you would be best with the gt35r. Im sure you are not going for record breaking #s or times...no need for something like a gt40

Would it make you feel better if I filled this one up with fail gifs too?

WillZ, Take the advice of Slidefox and contact Powerlab/Intense Motorsports. Hopefully they can give you some answers. A GT40 class turbo is fairly large.It really depends on what you are shooting for hp wise and the usage of your car.If that is what you want, I understand.Putting that size turbo in a Z33 chasis is not for the faint at heart.I myself have an hks t51r spl in my 350z and that's a GT42 class turbo.Do your homework and research before attempting. Good luck man..........
