No Sh*t, for the mean time it's staying in till I build the bottom end. I can't be without a turbo. This Thread was not about switching to another kit. Built short block then Twins FTW.

The A/C line issue has been fixed for over 6 months now. Unfortunately the person that you were dealing with here was unware. But I know for a fact this was done because I was involved in this matter. All of the new kits that are being shipped out with this new longer A/C and in case you would like to order one of the new A/C lines the part number is 21214.

Our 350z kit will still be available through turbokits.com. We will still honor warranites and still provide tech support for this kit.

Any new kit that Turbonetics come out with in the future has to be CARB legal. Unfortunately just slapping a disclaimer on your kit stating this kit is for "Off-Road Use Only" doesnt fly anymore.
Sounds like it's time to move the business out of California!!!

+1 the turbonetics setup is so restrictive from the backend. take a look at the piping diameter and tell me you think that will make power. powerlabs all the way

Frankie, just go to a reputable local garage and they should be able to order you a longer hose, or they will know where to get one custom made. I did this when I had my TN kit, then just heat wrap and header wrap it for longevity.

It's the longer hose with the old part number.
When Turbonetics updated the hose they kept the same part number But I can tell you that the new hose I just received is about 8" longer.
I'll tell you this much though. I'm heat wrapping the hell out of it this time.

Wow just wow. Can't believe a company would do that to its customers. How is that going to instill confidence in those very same customers who are considering upgrading to the very same 370z's TN's building kits for?

That's not smart

+1 for the Powerlabs kit. I'm really liking this ST option for our cars. I'm going to research and see what the differences are between the 350z and G35 versions
