Got my intake pipe completed and started fabrication of the waste gate piping, have to order one more stainless 1.75" bend and a blow off valve and the hardware of the turbo setup will be complete. I know I am slow moving sorry guys baller on a budget.

very cool. question, do you think it would have been a lot easier to just fab up a twin turbo kit and maybe cost about the same since you'd be buying 2 smaller turbos and wouldn't have all the duct work up front?
sick non-the-less, just curious...

This is a great writeup and inspiration! I'm building a VQ for an old Z31 right now, and you've shown me some pretty cool ideas. I love the intake manifold especially.

Yes Please.....
Finished piping the wastegate return pipe. That completes the piping for the turbo setup minus the blow off valve which I will add later. Motor will be pulled soon to start shaving the engine bay and prepping the chassis for paint. Here are some final shots of the turbo setup:

i really wanna turbo my Z. Im trying to wait until I know which route i want to go. Learned a great deal owning a 240sx. dont want to repeat the mistakes of the past. I was rushing and cutting corners. thanks for the info brother. You should set up a paypal account to see if fellow my350z owners would donate to your project. I think many would. Just a thought. Keep up the Good work. absolutely awsome build.

Got my JDM S14 Zenki Rear Valances in from Japan today, used, but in mint condition, when I saw them I had to snag them up. Im going to be using Zenki rear bumper, valnces and side skirts, I think it will flow better with the S15 front and greddy lip.
