Edit:
If you already have the Cobb then maybe it will be cheaper for you to stay with it but you really have to think both the pros and cons...

Is this kit still available?
I seem to be having a hard time finding any vendors offering this kit. I also fail to see the kit on STS's website.
What is the current costs of these kits, if still available?
Thanks

Are STS and CIN the only places to purchase these kits?
Thanks for the help!

That is really weird...Your link works, but when I go directly to their website nothing shows up for the 350Z. It just loads up the home page after I click the link...must be something up with my browser.

Has anyone ever done business with relentless RPM? Their site says $4,995 installed. I should be able to tackle the install on my own so I would assume I could get it for less. I will call and ask just wanted some input from anyone on them.
I miss having a turbo, this seems like the most cost effective kit for my goals and the installation looks like a breeze.
Anyone ever try making a shroud or diffuser of some sort to hide the turbo more and such?

don't bother the with a diffuser because the turbo is already tucked in very well. You really have to bend over and really stick your head underneath the car to see the turbo. Some of the guys here do have a diffuser but be careful because if it is to close it can melt because of the heat. If they are giving it to you for 4995 installed then I would take it. Ask them first if they have done it because you dont want to be the first one. If you are lucky you can get the kit for 4500 so that is only $500 for install.

I spoke with CIN Motorsports and wow, what great customer service. I didn't even ask for half the info he gave me. He explained everything the kit offers and how to complete a proper install. I was quoted an estimate of $5995 which Includes 3 CIN maps. He will give me a better quote Monday. It seems too much for me now that I think about it. I'm not sure if the kit is worth the price.
Relentless said the $4995 price was only available with them installing it because they custom make the piping when they install the kit or something along those lines. He's going to quote me on Monday for just the kit.
I couldn't get a hold of STS, will try on Monday. I might source it from eBay as a last resort.

Bottom line: you get what you pay for.
