I'm not a fan of the single exit pipes anymore. Especially since my bodykit has 2 cut outs on each side would look alil weird. On top of that the Greddy TiC is just to sexy for me to give up lol

DJ numbers actually make your ***** bigger and then you get higher BJ numbers

Going to have the Reverse Y custom made down here so the Duals will be working.

I like it so far! The power is a good, decent bump over stock...once it gets down to 50 and below that IC and turbo will start playing together nicely and give me an instant bump....even if i WAS to stay at 6psi.

I will give it a FULL review once it is totally complete.

We just got our GTRs today...so time to go drool on them..

Those are DJ numbers...not DD numbers I have roughly 70-90 TRUE whpr more over stock. It is faster....it definitely will kick up more when the temp drops and I raise the boost. I just took a ride in the GTR today, the R is most definitely faster, but once I kick up about 50 more hpr with the 9 psi, it won't beat it, but it'll give the R a run for it's money!! The R shifts SOO fast it is not funny....no lag when switching gears...I have to fight the blowoff

I think you are comparing your original 300CRANK Horses to 390WHEEL HORSES which is entirely different. Dope ride none the less, but you are considerably above your stock setup unless you were pulling 300whp prior to the turbo kit install.

The DJ numbers are much closer to crank hpr than DD numbers. I was at around 260 DD before, Now I am around 335-345 DD...in 95+ degree heat

I should be close to 400 at the crank...

DJ numbers with my old mods probably had me near 280-290 ish...extrapolating from J's numbers

no way your old mods gave you 280WHP Dj numbers....probably about 240WHP-250WHP at best.....most fully modded VQs (w/ bolt ons) get to the 280WHP range.... stock is like 286hp i believe which is about low 230s whp DJ

U are much faster than your think

I was at 260 DD whpr in 'shootout mode' done at F:T last year....Dave @ F:T said this mode will vary MAYBE by 1% on any DD wherever you go...I will have Julian give me some 'shootout mode' numbers when it is all said and done to see EXACTLY how much i improved. If i remember right, Julian played with his own car's numbers and the 'shootout' mode changed his...I forget which way if it was up or down.

I wish Dave@FUNCTIONTUNED would chime in right about now about the dyno...if they get internet again!!!

Keep in mind buddy, no one trying to flame or hate, MAD RESPECT on the numbers and it's actually kinda cool to see someone as humble as you about their numbers and be modest at the same time.

The common thing here seems to be that everyone recognizes the gross loss of power to the wheels especially with N/A applications on the 350Z platform and that your car is probably putting out more HP and is much faster than you may think. It's easy to get used to boost and a power level pretty quick.

I look forward to watching your future progress with the car and MRC's hand in increasing your performance they way I know they can. Good schtuff!

yeah man not trying to flame. I'm truly impressed with the results on your car. I think you're underestimating it though. I'm guessing you picked up about 140whp
