2004 350Z with almost 33,000 miles.
Turbonetics Single Turbo Kit
Over 15,000 miles with the kit on.
378 WHP 390 TRQ (Gonna have a new one here in a couple of weeks)

Go for the Tuner Version then pick up your own EMS, fuel pump, and injectors.

A/C line blew twice, with the help of Sharif@ForgedPerformance the A/C works great and strong.

Heat wrap all the exhaust pipes, and a turbo heat blanket.

2003 350z with 92,000 miles
Greddy twin turbo kit w/ fmic
So far I've boosted my way to 4500 miles of pure hell
Started out with 399/381 at 6.6psi on stock exhaust w/ test pipes & UTEC
Upped the boost to around 9psi with a MBC and am pushing my fuel system to it's wits end, car dyno'd at 452/428.

Had an initial issue with the car blowing blue smoke when getting off a WOT run and letting the car slow down by itself. Turned out to be my greddy catch can and it's supplied hosing collapsing under high vacuum at redline after I let off from a wot run. Changed to racing hosing and problem solved, no more puffing blue smoke.

Next plans are to pick up an actual return fuel system (CJM), get some 550cc injectors, and remove the stock exhaust and fab up 3" turbo back downpipes that shoot to the ground dumping by the SVRT wastegate dumps. I will go from having wayyy to much back pressure from the stock exhaust to virtualy having none so it should help open the car up even more and I'm gonna look at seeing if the car can hit 500hp @ 10psi.
