D350Z, are you going to ZDAYZ, all the way from MI?






id hate to have to come tow you there, so you better take lots of oil, a spare reflash, a bombsquad outfit, and of course, AAAs phone number.

Is this before or after you take the wire off the wastegate actuator so that you can make boost?

Maybe thats what the extra larger clamps included in the kit are for - to tow the car

We can definitely agree they thought this through

You're right, the APS is a much safer kit...they should market the boost drop as a safety feature.

That's brilliant! How about,

APS: "You want fun? Our S/T kit is the ticket (IF you buy the plenum, the exhaust, upgrade your actuators, own an oil company, live in Australia, and think bearing seals are for pussies!"
