APS, where's the post-Easter Single turbo system update?
I believe APS was had said they would release some updated pics/info/etc right after Easter.
Just wonderin`.
I'd really like to see some more pics/vids, info, and a final price.
I need something to keep me going before I break down and buy a Turbonetics or Vortech.

I hear wgat you are saying loud and clear..... I was inline for the turbonetics until APS started showing and talking about theirs and was won over...
Then the groupbuy pricing came out and it was very hard to stay the course, now I'm just waiting for something. Avalon racing has a good deal on the first 5 kits at $4675 or something close to that for the T-netics, but I'm still trying to wait.

I believe APS is probably giving more frequent updates on 350zmotoring, because the mods here seem to dislike APS, and even banned Peter a while back for some BS reason. I would go check there for the latest 411...

The AAM Turbonetics group buy is just wrapping up. We're getting the kits shipped for $4484, and I'm sending off my check tomorrow. 2-4 weeks from the April 8th, and the kit should be on my doorstep.

I have got two responses already. Once we have more concrete info (price, exact delivery date), I say lets do it!

I don't think you're getting a reply because other countries seem to value their vacation a lot more than we do in the U.S. They have taken a whole week off for easter, and from what I understand that is pretty common overseas as well as other holidays.

Think about it guys... APS is out on vacation right now. You know they will participate as soon as they return. The APS kit is far superior to any system out there. They have done their homework! Putting a turbo way up in the engine bay like that spells trouble later down the road. Do you realize how hot those get?? Just the way they have their manifolds set up is plain rediculous. Just look at all the twin turbos out from APS, and how plug and play it is.
Bottom line. You get what you pay for. Have some patients.

So if you are going to reprimand someone, go ahead and repirmand him.

On there initial dyno comparison chart the Z in stock form was producing a little less than 220WHP if thats the case then compared to a dyno registering 238 WHP.... one would expect this kit to make over 400WHP on its inital boost level with 94 Octane... So on 91 this kit should yield the same numbers as the Turbonetics kit.... And it achieves MAX boost quicker....
Hopefully some kind of Finalized sale price will be released soon.....So we can start a potential buyers list.....
There is a potential UNI-CHIP tuner here in HAWAII....if he doesnt get his act together i wonder if a SHOP in CALI can custom tune for 5PSI????
Thats my major concern... otherwise I have to put the Tilton rally clutch back in.... and those disk's are a mother @#$%^&
Or maybe I get lucky and my clutch wont slip.....never know I guess..

Don't panic guys, all is well under way with the APS intercooled single turbo project and if the APS/Garrett GT series turbos are delivered on schedule production of the system will start in early May, product in the US by early June.
I promise this APS product will be worth waiting for, please be patient, you will be rewarded with a techinically superior FI product, thorough engineering and most complete FI product available for the Z car, all good.

FYI Turbonetics dyno testing was done on a Dynapack. Just for an example...
My car made 240 RWHP on a Dynojet when it got dropped off at Turbonetics...On my car with nothing changed on Turbonetics' Dynapack it made 200 RWHP pre-turbo and 386 RWHP post turbo.
