that is not alot of HP to be that fast, that's cool!

and I thought my FX45 was fun.

I drove by our local tuner shop and saw a carbon fiber hatched 350z on a trailer with an iron boat anchor motor in front of it this morning.

It was a blue topped motor I think an LS something.
looks like somebody is getting something nasty built.

I sorta believe it as far as power. My poorly launched S13 did 12.9 @116mph at Atco over the summer. It dyno'd 355whp back in '07. If you factor in 20% that takes it to 426 crank. So, the much heavier Cadillac can do 12.9 @111 if launched properly. I'm sure the weight may or may not help lol. Who knows with magazine times these days.

Got any known 1/4mi times from this turbo kit yet? Don't the Turbonetics equipped cars hit mid to high 12s and the 110s? That's enough to keep stock or lightly modded Mustangs and Camaros honest at the strip.

Normally the weight wouldn't help it. sorry if I missed it, but are we talking about the 2.5L 2014 ATS? which Cadillac?

Also, the track matters greatly. Sealevel tracks seem to normally do better.

12's are respectable times for your car.

1/4mile times would actually require someone with the kit to go to a dragstrip.....that requires effort from them

It's the CTS with the mega sized 3.7L twin turbo 6cyl. So, I just swapped out my summers for winters just now. I noticed that I have a slight exhaust leak from where the rear section muffler attaches to the now rotting midpipe flange. The car just turned 82,000mi last week with the original exhaust. Hmm...time for a turbokit?

It would seem like it would be. Exhaust leaks are normally the best time to turbo something.

In all my years of being around Nissans, the Z33 and the G35's have got to be the quickest rusting platforms I have ever seen of theirs. It's almost on purpose.

I had an 87 Maxima that I bought when I was going to VA Tech back in the 1990's. I bought it just for a car that I or anybody could drive if we went out on the town.......type of car I knew I wouldn't modify.

I kept that car until around 2005 or so. I never washed the outside of it ..........ever. The inside was clean, but the outside.........

not until about 2003 did it start getting some rust
interior was close to perfect when I sold it too!
most 350z's that I see are in marginal shape ......

I was in there today.
They got a shipment of more turbo kits in. Some are shipping out to customers today they said.

They also had an LS3? motor in there for a 350z with a carbon fiber trunk.

Default a/c line

can you keep the stock a/c line if its wrapped with heat wrap/heat shield of some sort? or is it physically in the way of the flange(s)?

So still no reviews from unbiased members no graphs showing even a semi potential of the kit or problems etc. Hmm seems like this thread went where I stated it was going to go........no where.

I haven't seen any reviews either. weird
I don't know what an unbiased member is, but either way, I haven't seen any

I also don't know what a graph of semi potential is......but it sounds neat.

So you are saying that in the beginning, you stated that the thread was not going to go anywhere?

Hey, my wife and I took our bike out on the CrotchoftheDragon, and the BackoftheDragon yesterday, I know you have wanted some photos of her, you want me to send you some?

I'll PM you.
