Looks nice...However 3 yrs trying to get my turbonetics in the 500 club it adds up. For sure it's the polished single option. Quick spooling 600RWHP DYNO DYNAMICS on 91 octane is what im looking for.

Now i know why I spent all this time building my credit. Every card i am looking at is like 'YEA! HOW MUCH CREDIT DO YOU WANT?!'

I wonder if I can get a sponsorship by putting a Mastercard sticker on the car!

I will keep you posted, i go to talk with Julian and have him check out what i have now on Saturday...I hope I don't need too many supporting mods. I am concerned about the front crash bar and the cat...i don't want cops smelling me from 2 miles behind, that will attract unneeded attention.
Even if you have to take out the front crash bar, just get a body shop to fab up a custom one (that's welded in) all you need is some metal and a welder lol. But seriously, I've read about people doing it that way, so I wouldn't worry.

You won't be sorry you did it, unless you pop your motor, but I dont think MRC will let you do that

Hellos,

The PowerLab kit allows you to retain your crash bar -- it just needs to be modified. Instructions are actually included as well as a template for cutting too.

Darren(knows Julian is the go to man for the install)

The crash bar is a must for me, that little bar will prevent a lot of damage from the pics of have seen of wrecked Z's. I need to see if my stock clutch and radiator will be up to the task and if the Nismo exhaust will work or if i have to use a single exit. I should probably have a compression test done too, the motor is still young with 27k on the clock, but I frequently use all 300+ horsepower....

I'm not afraid of the motor popping with MRC's reputation, my concern is mostly how long the stock parts will last with the extra stress.

What type of numbers are you looking for daily? Also, do you have the Nismo S-Tune exhuast?

It is not my daily driver, i am looking for around 400wh. horse/400 wh. torque...just enough to kick me in the pants pretty damn hard, but keep the motor safe....if such a condition exists.

I have the S tune exhaust on the car now, I wonder if it is easier to use a single exit with the kit. I love the nismo sound and it is 3 inches from the cat-back...

I guess I will be selling my popcharger!

Is this kit related to Sam Barros of powerlabs.org?? I can't seem to find anything about the kit-assmebler.

Don't know who Sam Barros or powerlabs.org is, but I'm gonna say No...

Your Nismo exhaust should bolt right up to this kit, minus your y-pipe.

If your looking for 400WHP, Julian should be able to hook you up just right, without a ton of extra stuff!

Hope all goes well!

It's already to be released. All of the changes required to make the G Kit work were done recently so PowerLab has a G35 Option. Which you can get through us or MRC

Not right now, we already have an APS extreme on my car for now.But if we did not already have it, this would be the kit we would opt for for sure.

Wow.... that is one hella expensive turbo kit. Shouldn't another turbo be included in that price? Nice setup though.

So I guess you are going with a Stroker motor also to get 600 with 91 octane or a little meth on the side
