I don't remember the exact size of the APS turbos used in their TT kit, but it is not a mitsubishi turbo (meaning it is not and "g" size as in 16g or 18g). Their turbo is a Garrett turbo that is custom spec'd for APS, but I will let someone else tell you what turbo it is sized close too, i just can't remember. But they are smaller than 18g's which are what are used on the Greddy TT kit.

The APS turbo is a GT35 series, water cooled, ball bearing unit. Very nice piece.

The APS TT uses two GT35/28R turbos, custom made for this kit by Garrett.

I am not sure what the APS single uses, i'd have to check.

I believe APS use twin GT25/35R turbos with their out of the box TT kit.

GT25 turbine with a GT35 compressor not the other way around.

Dont know the exact specs with regards to A/R etc.

It has been mentioned by Peter before and I believe its been GT25/35, if it is GT28/35R now then it has changed.

Here are two articles off the APS website which mention the turbo sizes.

http://www.XXX.com/350z/motor_hot_tuner/evilzed2.htm

http://www.XXX.com/350z/fastforus/exclusive_cargo2.htm

Replace XXX with air power systems.

Well, apparently I am wrong. I thought I had seen Peter say that somewhere, maybe I was mixed up.

The aps turbo are not mitsubshi turbos so they are not measured by "G", I would guess the aps turbo is around small t4. Its a garret custom turbo. Greddy uses all mitsubshi turbos. Did you know that the srt-4 turbo is a mitsubshi turbo, the srt-4 engine is very similar to the 95 eclpise!!! Quick fact!!! lol
