There have been some Custom single turbo kits but most only produced one or two at the most. There are two major Single Turbo kits for the Z. Turbonetics and APS. I personally run the Turbonetics. AS for the info for those kits theres plenty posted about both in this forum if you search for the info.

 

 

The only Smokey I ever knew was Smokey Yunick out of Daytona,Fla. He was something else. --Genius,eccentric.--I loved the guy. He was a Motor buildin MF.
Id be curious though --Theres so much Talent out there just working out of their Garages, like Linewebber and his awesome Cams and there was an old man (70+ years old back in the early 80s) out of Dallas that could build a Harley stroker motor that would stand ur hair up. And the Truitt brothers out of ---Ark. ?? and Mel Bernstein out of NYC then a mountain top in Colorado.etc etc. All dead now probably ---All of them were on the cantankerous side till they got to know and trust you, then u couldnt shut them up----they would open up.
Keep us posted if u find out something.

What route would be cheaper to do? Custom or TN single?

 

Turbonetics is definately cheaper than any custom kit.

hey accordfreak was that a turbo kit on a g35 ,looks like the same kits that a
shop in texas did by the make name smokey and thanks for the pictures

 

1st pic is a 350z

2nd is a g35

and a custom kit CAN be cheaper than turbonetics.. depends how much research you've done plus some DIY abilities. (ie.. using a bandsaw to cut tubing or have a welder) 180 degree bends are cheap.. about $16-$30 dollars. jcwhitney has a bunch along with many other online stores. For my fuel system. I just bought a pair of rails with -6an ends for $150. That's just one example of good pricing. When it's all said and done, you'll have better quality parts than any other single kit out there, without the huge price tag. Most of the time that's the case, but not all the time.

 

I'm pretty sure the shop was Velocity Performance in Plano, cuz I was there when they dynoed the G35 with the custom single turbo kit on it. It put down 330 whp when I dynoed bone stock at 245 the same day, on the same dyno. I heard later thay he blew his engine.

If you are getting a custom turbo kit made then make sure it has a TRUE ball bearing turbo. I have seen one float by the shop, but not sure on the info on it.
