My questions are thus:
How much would it cost to do a twin turbo on a 350z to make it run like my 02 Z06? Basically 4.0-4.1 to 60 and 12.4-12.5 in the quarter mile. Would twin turbos do the job with a stock motor? I don't wish to compare the two cars, just find out how much it would cost to do a motor to make a 350z as fast as my current car. I would'nt mind trying to twin turbo a Z car. Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance.

 

7-8 thousand

 

10k

 

Thanks guys. Speed is not cheap. I was guessing 7K.

 

to half *** it 8k, to do it semi correctly 10-12k, to do it the right way 15k+

 

pmed you , give us a call at the shop, we have a lot of AL customers!!

 

The right way..IMO is JWT or Aps Twins..w/proper fuel setup and F-Con for ecu....Thats around 10-12k...

but then you also have a stock motor..thats another 5-8k....if you wanna build it...

Stick w/the z06....I would trade mine for that....in a heartbeat..actually i might do it now...

 

I love the 350z, and I would have to stay will low boost, because I am not interested in building a motor, and the car would be driven everyday. Thanks for all the great replies. You guys won't believe that a friend of mine had a custom tuner here in town put twin turbos on his NEW Z06 with the stock motor. It laid down over 600rwhp on the dyno. It is a monster. 5lbs of boost on each turbo. I will post some pics for you guys.
Thanks again.

 

Thats what it took me to run 11's...and whoop C5 Z06's

I did my own TN install

 

30k

 

DIY with a welder less than 3500$ with used turbos and crap.

 

ebay turbo- 500
pvc pipe- 100-300 worth
dutch tape- 10bucks
beer- 40bucs

pretty dam cheap b1tch

 

to do it right w/no worries 18k to 22k....and you would kill a zo6

 

One million dollarrsssssss..

But really get Jeremy or Matt @ PF to help you out with that if you're interested in purchasing!

 

Yeah, if you wanted to go the cheapest route I'd say a Turbonetics kit and an aftermarket clutch. You could do that with gauges and other addons for about 7k if you did the installs yourself.

I'm not intending to sell you anything, but I agree that JT has some nice deals on Turbonetics packages.

 

I am not FI so take what I say with a grain of salt. I am looking/have been looking for a similar setup as you. I drive everyday but would like to beat some stock vette's etc... General rule of thumb I've seen is 400hp on a stock motor. That said, you may put on an intake and something will break or you may put down 500hp and everything lasts. No one can pin point because every motor is different.

My current list with some "ballpark" prices:
Greddy Twins, UTec, RPS 6 puck with flywheel, boost a/f and fuel pressure gauges, Blitz boost controler and turbo timer, plus guestimated install prices is a little over $11,000. Recently I have been thinking about the HKS F-Con is instead of UTec which I think adds a couple hundred and also a fuel return system. Also looking at APS twins instead of Greddy (comes with fuel return).

Just keep in mind, speed alone really isn't that expensive. Speed + reliability + doing it right is a lot of money! And the alternative is even more expensive(speed done wrong + repairs)

 

If you want to cut corners you could do a Single for like 3500 used, buy a walbro for 100, buy a used fuel system for like 650, utec used for likr 600, and the a clutch (300) and used exhaust (550) and a tune (for like 500) Prosport gauges for like $70 (35 a pop).
Spend a total of 6300 or so ... all DIY obviously. And those are fair market prices for used items. Doing everything NEW add an easy 1500 or more.

 

if you stick with that list of stuff you should be able to build a fairly reliable 400whp+ car. most of it is in the tuning. that is what everyone will tell you on these boards because its true ;-)

 

7300 + installation. Of course you would be buying all of my parts, lol. Includes everything to do it correctly, trust me!!!

 

i would say about 18-30k for a good tune and install and parts you can beat that
