RC= sometimes you get irregular spray patterns. If you get a good set you're good, if not
I don't think RC use denso cores either and all the top tuners (PF,FP,GTM etc) recommend denso core injectors. Thats why I recommended DW. I agree on the Greddy TT exhaust, mine is just loud enough. Plus since you have Greddy Turbos why not go with Greddy exhaust.
Just an opinion.......

I saw that you have 305's on the back of your G. What width are your wheels and what are your offsets?

I don't know if I trust anyone local to even do some small stuff (tc swap, x pipe, dual intakes, traction control, yada, yada...). Probably I'll wait till my next trip down to Atlanta. It makes it easier to blame, errr I mean entrust Sharif for every little thing that way - ha ha. ![Smilie](https://my350z.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif)
I've still got several unfinished write ups, videos to upload, sigh. No time - except for an occasional post here on my350. Later!
(whoa, sorry for big OT - I'll delete after Mike has read it - lol)

Nice build list and looking forward to seeing the outcome.
XKR; GTSpec now has an "oversized" fron tie brace for owner using larger oil pans or with oilpan spacers. I ordered mine from THMotorsports. Just need to make sure you're ordering the "oversized" verison. *Note I have nnot installed mine yet to personally confirm that it fits.
EDIT: Here is the link for where I pruchased mine; Click Me! I beleive on page 8 is where it's mentioned a revised version is released.

Thanks for the heads up. I'll check to see if the one I have is the revised version. I just ordered it a few weeks ago, so maybe it is...

Good luck and welcome to the world of FI. Glad your shop is local to you - makes life a lot easier, especially with the number of mods your putting in. Plan on it going back several times for fine tuning.

On that note, I now have an APS 2.5" true dual cat. back exhaust system and 2.5" test pipes for sale. They have been installed and removed, but before the engine was ever fired up. I paid $1195 for the exhaust system and $199 for the test pipes. I will sell them both for $1100 plus shipping. If you live in South Florida, you can pick them up either at Japtrix in Riviera Beach or in Wellington and save the shipping cost.
We are now also switching to a twin Walbro in-tank pump and 1000 cc peak and hold injectors.

Roger also suggested re-flashing the ECU.

why don't you get the sgp 3" downpipe(specially made for the greddy tt ) , i upgraded from 2.5" testpipe to a 3" downpipe you could difinitely tell the turbo spool up quicker , and i gain more power too at the same boost level .
