how much slower is the Cat version then the non cat version?

 

Not enough that you will notice. I should have the cat down pipe in my grubby little hands this week. I'm going to roll it for the sniffer and try to get some number both with and without cat..

 

wow your fast, only 1 min =p Thanks. So with the Cat version i shouldn't have any trouble passing an emissions test right?

 

No you should not. Like I said I'm going to put the cat pipe on my car and hit the emissions rollers and see how well it does...

 

hey! what about ur spark plugs? should u get colder plugs? thanks

I'm running the stock plugs and Turbonetics says thats what they would use. Going one step colder should help prevent detonation but I don't get any now and I'm running mine hard on 91.

 

what exhaust did you choose to go with? Can you hear the turbo spool really loud on the highway when you stay in gear? I miss turbo cars soooooo much!

 

I have the Apexi WS2 exhaust and yessir you can hear it spool....

 

now if they could just catch up with production MIA go help them build the kits.

 

I'd love to....

 

If one buys the non-cat version. Do we just use the OEM Z cat or it runs w/o one at all? Also, since I already have a TS flash. Is it still OK to send back to Turbonetics for another flash? Will my rev limit stay at 7100?

 

You wont use the stock cats, you would only have 1 cat in the dowpipe of the kit. Yes its ok to reflash your ecu, I have an n/a flash now, when I receive my kit Ill be reflashing my ecu to Turbonetics specs. There has been some talk of the VQ's rod bolts being strong enough to support 7100 rpm's over time. Ive had my flash for months with a lot of 7000 rpm use, with no issues, but I would advise to not keep your high redline with all the extra power, you wont need it.

 

The Turbonetics flash will overwrite the one you have now. The redline is moved back to stock limit. Turbonetics tested this and found that there was no gain in bumping it. It just causes further chances of engine failure.

 

Where the best place to get that Apexi WS2 exhaust? Also how did it sound before the turbo?

Thanks,
Ruben

 

It sounded great before the turbo.... I have sound clips at http://members.***.net/w.suarez

I got mine from www.350zonlinestore.com for $589 shipped.

 

what other kind of exhaust can u get that will run on the single turbo?
thanks

 

Has anyone modified an Injen SES dual exhaust to work w/ the Turbonetics? What is involved?

 

I had the GReddy EVO2 modified to work with the kit. Basically, they just cut everything from the resonator (single-pipe section) forward off and welded a flange on to mate up with the downpipe. Works good, sounds good.

 

Fujitsobo, Apexi N1, RSR, Pro-1, Tanabe, Magnaflow, etc.

 

Hey thanks for the reply on my previous question.

I was wondering how intensive is the install for a good mechanic that has never done this particular kit? Cause I live in WY and I am sure I will have to go to Colorado for the install, but I know this guy in town that is in the Milatary that works in the Mechanics shop. He said hes capable but I was wondering from your opinion is it doable for just a good mechanic?

Thanks,
Ruben
