What do you think????

 

his numbers are true..

 

waits for craig

 

Different turbo, wastegate, low-comp forged bottom, cammed, real EMS, as opposed to a re-flash and lots of boost. You're a bit too frisky seeking the pwnage points there, sport.

 

What do I think? I think the OP has some learning to do.

 

Yeah, it's true. All he did with the turbo was swap in a new compressor wheel. That t3 turbine housing isn't enough to push that much power to redline.

I still think 500whp is possible on a built/cammed motor with a good tune.

 

Not on their current Z turbo kit..Never..

 

+1
yes his numbers are true... its a "bastarized" turboentics setup though

 

never say never... but i havent seen anybody try it or done it yet =]... if damm Jetpilot had listened to all and installed the cams and head work he needed to do..

 

come on, the kit at high boost levels will do nothing more than blow hot air. placing the turbo where it is already results in higher than normal intake temps at lower boost levels. Now think about pushing it to the boost levels needed to get to 500 whp. The dinky dump will be providing tons of backpressure and the intercooler will be all but worthless as the combo of high boost and running the intake pipe so close to the turbo will do nothing more than kill your chances of decent power. Intake temps will be increasing as the boost increases and making it very difficult to tune. Just poor design

 

Technical ownage...............

 

Ahhh, schit, here it comes....

 

sweet looking Z

 

as much as people may not like to see my post, at least it is somewhat informative. Thanks for you great contribution to yet another FI. Maybe you can take this on a complete tangent about how you are too chicken **** to boost your Z and how you will be buying a GTO -

GTFO

 

Didn't that post make you feel even better about yourself? Congratulations, now will you be so kind as to mail some money to the forum member, whose turbo kit sale you are trying so hard to screw up?
As per me, actually, I am back with the Z project. I am installing coilovers next week. After that it's the 5AT build-up followed by an FI kit (which is not going to be TN nor APS). And if the motor blows, of well, I already have a good daily driver and a fully finished condo, so I am in the position when I can buy a forged motor without sacrificing anything, even if my Z is down for a few month.
And I don't need to take this thread on any tangent, you will accomplish that just fine. I already see the Zivman's signature "TN sucks part 98326283749186" or "This is why APS is better then TN" in the making.
Bye.

 

Well the APS TT is at least much better designed . . . .

 

Isn't AJ putting down in the 550 whp range with a Turbonetics Kit?

I wouldn't say its impossible to get 500 whp, but I will say that $40,000 is wayyyyy too much money for that car.

 

the body kit alone is $3000

 

Do i hear Greddy Twins in your future?

 

And? $40,000 is still overpriced.
