Dude, why waste 500 bucks when you can turbo your Z for only 25?

Dont listen to all the h8r's!

I run this kit with a different engine management and I love it.

I installed it in 5 hours in the garage and it dyno'd 380whp on stock block. Best part was I didnt have to modify my flux capacitor or change to synthetic chassis fluid to handle the power. I did have to add 1/2lb muffler bearings though.

Good luck, PM me with any questions, fawk the haters!!!!

Don't forget the drilled and slotted brake lines, and the non magnetic blinker fluid.

come on you fools... instead of flaming why not direct me in the proper location of a good turbo! I would not ever pay $5000 for a single turbo kit for my car.. that is just outragous.

Anyone have a good alternative to this cheapass sucker kit?

Yea, definitely not, civics are pieces of **** that are made to be beaten.

Then plan on being NA for a very long time. You have to pay to play. If you cannot support the funds that are required, you should just stop now. You think $5000.00 for a single turbo is bad? What do you think it is going to cost after you get it installed and tuned? what about adding supporting mods? Hell, you better be looking AT LEAST 10K which is a drop in the bucket when it comes to FI on these cars.

oh and as far as being pointed in the right direction, why dont you take a few months and read the section that this thread is posted in.

Educate yourself, once you have a basic idea people will be more than happy to help you out, but coming here wanting to be spoon fed information that is already posted on this site is just going to get you flamed.

Simply place it in the seat, and drive fast, weaving in and out of traffic. (On a race course, of course.) Now you can tell your friends with confidence "That oil-saturated air filter gave me 20 horses!"

AHAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

cool

yes, its a T3 turbo with a polishd compressor housing, in low boost its going to make hot air, but if u run high boost its going to flow colder air.

I see only one fool here. Well, maybe two.

There are plenty of good alternatives to this "cheapass sucker kit." Unfortunately for you though, they all cost multiple thousands of dollars.

Alternative: https://my350z.com/forum/forced-indu...brication.html

This would require you to have some kind of skills, so I think that link is of no use to you. Keep in mind that even this is costing me about $2500 without a stanalone, and it alone was $2000. This does not include an install, tuning, clutch upgrade..ect. So even a DIY will cost you. Get a CAI, catback, and enjoy it.
