Short answer: its not a standard T66. You will have to wait till Turbonetics finishes R&D on Stage II and then order that turbo..
Ok cool, i was thinking about upgrading the turbo this coming summer so i was saving money, but i guess for now i can get the lip kit i wanted

Yup I would wait...There will be a Stage II upgrade path for you. I'm sure you will be able to order just what you need for your car from a Turbonetics dealer also...

No I don't. Probably May, maybe sooner. Turbonetics has to finish Stage 1.5, the Revup motor, wastegate changes, H3 turbo kit, and some others that are on the schedule...Its pretty busy up there..

Dude if I told you how many pre-orders they have recieved for that kit even though its not in production yet you would laugh...They did a one off for GM for SEMA and got so much interest and people actually sending in cash commitments for it that its is slated next up on their list after they finish the current Z commitments.

Ive got a standard T66 P Trim with a .84 turbine housing on my VQ35 Maxima. I had a standard 60-1 before the T66. The T66 is the way to go! Spool is only a couple hundred RPMs more, but pushing a true 18psi thats still in the turbos range is pretty cool, EGTS are lower! Its nice to see Turbonetics is doing this for the Z kit.

Well, I havent dynoed it recently, traps are a good enough yard stick for now. That time was with a 75 shot of nitrous from the hole to the line on top of the 18psi. I have a JWT ECU and was only getting 10 degrees of ignition advance which is way weak. They are making me a new 100oct gas program that I should be allot more aggressive than their off the shelf turbo maxima ecu. This will be my last season in the Max, Im looking for 10s. I plan on stepping into a Z or G this time next year. I knew the 60-1 wounldnt do it for me on a Z, the T66 should work fine. If they can make a T66 fit, then a T70 should also be doable

The T66 is going to fit but its going to take a custom housing to do it...

Don't worry D350Z10 will have that kit putting out 650RWHP at the same 15 PSI. I think he should take that 450 @ 9.5 PSI out of his sig until he shows everyone a real dyno.
