Everything looks amazing Mia, very good job on the pics. Now you must answer the main question for all of us lol. What else BESIDES the turbo and the fuel mods, are they changing on the stage 2. Like mainly my question is about the piping? How much piping are we having to redo now with stage 2. BTW I have ALL the supporting mods, all I need is the turbo and piping, is their gonna be a way to get just that????

I am exactly in the same situation, i am jsut looking for

looking for the piping changes... the gtk turbo(and program to exhange with current turbos)....the waste gate(i might jsut keep my tial)...and intercooler....bov(i dunno if godzilla is any better than raptor performance/sound)..

other than that... i got everything else done...the fuel, the injection... etc etc. Basically MIA as i mentioned to you before, i know there is an upgrade from current stage 1 to stage 2... but will there be an update from stage 1.5(current custom 1.5) to stage 2..

looking at the piping on the 240... the main pipe coming out of the intake manifold... well opoesite as that on the Z. i dunno if it will be keep that way on the 350z piping, but if not, it may mean that i crosses infront of the engine like some of the custom turbo kits out there.....

Nice meeting you in the TN booth today Robert. The new turbos looked terrific, and so did that VERY innovative and cleverly designed turbo kit for the Ford Mustang. With the cats in that location, I bet it stands a good chance of gaining CARB exemption, if it hasnt already.

slightly off topic but do you know what kind of wheels were those on the S14?

btw only problem I see with the mustang kit is that new engine in the mustang. Pretty weak internals. They're popping hardcore around 500whp or less!

add 2 cylinders. In comparison, the new modular is weaker than the previous gen modular which is known to be pretty stout.
