Default Not worth ST the Z?

i've finally come up with the money to turbo my Z, but ive been hearing that the only way to go is TT only. Would single turbo'ing the car not be a good idea?

i believe ST generally have more lag, butwith ST you can go bigger and i think they are easier to tune, as opposed to TT the turbos are smaller and don't require as long to spool up although they may be more difficult to tune

haven't spent much time in the fi section, have you? a lot of people would disagree with your statement. the st is better for a certain group of buyers with certain wants/needs. you need to determine what yours are and go from there. good luck with your research.

Where did you hear this stupidity?

BTW.... what mods do you have now, and how much $ do you have to TC your car?
