has anyone done a i guess stats comparison with the STS Vs BP single turbo kit
Edit- i want the STS kit JUST for the simple fact it sounds SICK!!!! But i like the BP kit bc 1 sasha is awesome and the kit looks terrific.

Ask and you shall receive
post #2 of this thread. 10psi with stock STS 60-1 T3 turbo
vs Vas Z33's T4 6262 turbo at 9psi from his thread
https://my350z.com/forum/forced-indu...nd-review.html
and the 2 overlayed
Outcome is not surprising. Bigger turbo (flange and wheels), more lag. No real difference on the top end. The BP kit did it on 1 psi less, again not surprising for the same reasons as above.

I have video but my driving skill suck and this was my first time at the strip. My 19's that weight 60lbs each didn’t help too. Here is one video where I bogged down on the launch
and on top of that I mis-****** at 2nd gear
It was hot that day and a stock 135i couldn’t even manage to trap more than 102mph. the chipped 335i next to me trapped 106.55mph. Even with the bog down during launch and the mis-shift at 2nd gear, I still manage to trap 105.89mph.
G35 (bogged with mis-shift)
RT = .758
60' = 2.674
330 = 6.797
1/8 = 9.941
1/8 mph = 81.74
1000 = 12.549
1/4 = 14.703
1/4 mph = 105.89
Chipped 335i
RT = .351
60' = 2.171
330 = 5.751
1/8 = 8.654
1/8 mph = 85.33
1000 = 11.148
1/4 = 13.268
1/4 mph = 106.55
335i gained 21.22mph after the 1/8 mile.
G35 gained 24.15mph after the 1/8 mile.

I don’t have a video of my best run but my highest trap was 111.69mph. Not bad for a car that weight 3750lbs and heavy 19's with only 8psi (375whp). My wife could probably get the same time
best run.
RT = .570
60' = 2.421
330 = 6.078
1/8 = 8.960
1/8 mph = 87.15
1000 = 11.405
1/4 = 13.43
1/4 mph = 111.69

I have the trap to make 12's so I'm not worried about my 1/4 time.
Edit:
If you look at the video you'll see that the flag is blowing against us. That is why everyone was getting low trap for that day.

G35 is heavier than 350z not to mention you add the Turbo, body kit and wheels. The 3750lbs is with me in it without any spare tire though (I only weight about 150lbs). A 375whp will definetly get you to 12's with a decent driver. Dyno # vary from each other and that is why trap speed is a better gauge on how much power your car is making. Trap dont lie..

I think I found a solution. I bought ultimate racing hfc's (http://www.ultimate-racing.com/Produ...low-Cats.shtml) because they were local and I heard good things. I know they might be a bit pricey but they sound amazing with our setup. They are 200cels each and the flow is also good and no rasp or any other funny noises. I will post a video with the new sound. The only other pipe I have which is not stock is a Nismo 3inch y-pipe. These cats also look promising in terms of durability 700whp (i hope). I defiantly need a re-tune now.

Well no one has tried these on an sts kit other then me so only time will tell. Iam really happy with the sound and there about 20% at most louder then the stock. Since they were local I thought I would give them a shot. The quality also is good but they did not tell me the company they used for the CATs but he guaranteed me they were not Virbrant. Only time will tell.

Nice.. The BB will make a big difference. Just be careful not to go to big on the hotside or else spool will hurt.
