Compensation? Yeah right! I wish!

I don't run 16psi daily. In fact I haven't used 16psi in a while. It seems that folks boosting more than 12psi are seeing headlift, so I have been running 10psi which was about 440whp on the dyno dynamics. I order a overzealos head mod and I am probably going to replace my ARP head studs with the L19head studs. If I didn't have headlift I would be running 16psi daily and as soon as the probablem is fixed I will be running 16psi daily.

If you do build don't go with the ARP standard studs get the L19 studs.

no dyno vids, but look here for a 10psi and 16psi run.

I wouldnt even compare the out-of-the box Greddy kit with anything else out...becuase its a time bomb. $5800 is just the kit and intercooler (I have two kits in stock)...you need a few more components to make it safe and complete.

The comparison should be this vs. everything else out there. I consider this the safe and complete Greddy kit...the way it should have been out of the box: https://my350z.com/forum/showthread.php?t=156630

Are the APS turbos better at resisting heat during a raodracing course because of the water cooling? Or does it make little to no difference?

In theory, yes. In practice, you will be hard pressed to notice any difference in engine bay heat, inlet temps, or oil temps, between the various TT kits out there. As long as you have taken the necessary upgrades, such as a new rad and oil cooler, you should have no issues road racing any of the kits.
