If I didn't have to deal with shipping the car back and forth I'd have you guys do my car in a second. It's my only car and I guess it would take a week to ship there, a week for you to work on it, maybe more, and a week to send it back. I don't think I would want to build the motor yet either since I don't want more than 400whp. I'm in NY btw.

Nah u can have the car shipped in 2 days, they will work on it about 3 days, and car shipped back tunned/dynoed, ready to go in 2 more days.... turn around would be under 2 weeks, ive been talking a lot with WA2GOOD about doing my car, so i know pretty much w/e there is to know. And you dont have to build ur motor, which can easily keep u about 350-400 easily on about 7psi i believe? anyways im sure he'll jump on it, and fill in the blanks im not.

Shipping one way is probably about $1300 so that means $2600 right there which isn't worth it. I can wait a little bit and the kit will be released to the public. Then I can drive to a local shop and use that $2600 I would've used for shipping to do something else. It might even be more to ship it, I'm just estimating. On top of that, while I was thinking about doing that, I also thought about if I get the car back and it's not running right or something goes wrong in a week or so. I can't ship the car back to VRT to have them look at it.

Michael here. We can always have a driver get the car back to you if needed or use our trailer if necessary. Don't make the miles between us a reason not to have VRT do your car. Just think, USN had his car street dynoed a day before he left. The car drove nearly 3000 miles and 30 MPG and is still running great. We can find a solution for you. Please PM me if you would like to discuss the options.

Wherever you are in the US believe me when I say that it is worth it. VRT is a bunch of awesome guys who are very willing to work anything out. I believe they are going to be doing a 350Z from Germany here pretty soon so no excuses.

Wa2good, I just sent Michael a pm but can you send me a price of the kit installed also when you get a chance? Hopefully he'll answer the rest of my questions in PM.

Oh that sucks foir Jim. I only hope that at least MB got the other things done that I was doing (JAG you know what I'm talking about). Well I hope Jim feels better by now. No rush. Car is running great. I just can't wait to get that extra 2.5 lbs of boost!

To you guys that are filling this post with writings about having the JWT kit installed, no question. I've driven just about every kit out there and this one is just ... well I guess "Solid" is the only word I can think of right now.

So anyway, I'm in Boston now and off to Cheers. Going to down a few and perhpaps ... well I won't go there Be back in SD on Thursday!!! I can't wait!!!! I will Dyno the car either way!!

From everything I've gathered, the JWT kit is as close to OEM as you can get. Very well thought out and produced.

If I ever come up with the money (which will be a lot easier) and talk the woman into it, I'm damn sure getting this kit. Otherwise I might be banished to the vortech sc kit
