Yup running great no problems at all. Got around 7000 miles on the kit put the turbo on at 9,600 miles. Im on stock exhaust and stock clutch and everything is holding up good. I will like to ge a new clutch in the next month or two, but other then that its fine.

Thats funny... I have my car, a 2006 z, over at VRT right now, and you guys seem to be having a lot of problems getting it running. Also, I was told that mine is the first 2006 that you've had.

06 is nothing different from the older models, but what about a 07? some components in the engine bay supposedly changed.

We have done an 06 model already with jwt kit ,the only problem we ran into ,the kit out the box ran 8.5 PSI and caused a lean condition on the top end,we had to replace the injectors and retune the split second .

I don't know what the story is on your car, but there is atleast six '06 rev-ups that we have done that I know of. The '07's are a different story.
(PM me and I will check on the statis of your car)

All clear for 06's here too. The steering rack is different on the 06, so some minor mods are needed to gain clearance...but nothing that a good shop can't do for you.
