Seems to be as if you are serving our country, so I will help you out!
Turbonetics and Aps St kits are roughly the same in gains, but If you get the turbonetics stage 1.5 and wait it is alot more compelete than the aps kit, although Aps turbos are water cooler which is nice because you can shut the car right off as opposed to oil cooled like the TN and wait 5-10 minutes to turn off. I love my Turbonetics kit with my mods and between both kits on a stock motor I have made the most power on pump gas!!!!!

I agree with all but what do you mean the stage 1.5 is more complete than the APS? I need details...

IMO I don't think you can go wrong with either kit so long as the TN kit is the 1.5 version. Does anyone even know when the 1.5 TN kit will be released and what the estimated price will be? I personally would choose the APS kit but everyone already knows that...

stage 1.5 is coming with unichip, fuel return and bigger injectors I believe. And the stock TN kit makes exact same power as APS with the reflash!!! With the Unichip and stage 1.5 this kit should be at 400whp @ 8.5-9psi

because my350z is a TN board
head over to motoring or tech and see who replies.

I need not make a comment beyond that. Those in the know will pick the best kit.

take a quarter, write TN on one side and APS on the other, and flip it.

OMG...can't anybody make up their own flipping mind on this stuff? It basically boils down to personal preference when making this decision. You'll be satisfied with either one.

Exactly, and this bull about where the TN and APS owners goes is ghey.

Some people need to grow out of the "highschool" mentality.
