Default Since my first post in FI went so well......

I thought I would post again.

Decided I can't wait until next summer.
To many cars out there that are at my level of HP now.

From my other post it seems the Turbonetics kit
should be the last choice for a STS.

I'm looking at the APS for the price which is a factor for me
and that my car is a DD.



That is all

But when we say other than "Great Job OP!!" We are wrong/girly/high horse riders/douche bags????

Well good job OP, we are so happy now you are looking at STS or APS..

https://my350z.com/forum/forced-indu...xt-summer.html

Nothing against you OP, but If I made a thread for every Modification I "thought" about making or even made... There would be hundreds or thousands of threads from each member.... This site can barely handle this much bandwidth and they start deleting good threads with answers on them to really good questions or problems when its overloaded...

You could have easily posted in https://my350z.com/forum/forced-indu...thread-38.html your plans on STS or do a search for APS Tuner kit etc and had a great response and probably some answers to your questions..
APS is priced through Vendors which you could PM all of them in the Marketplace and compare their prices and choose a vendor..

I would read before purchasing a APS kit because they arent built block friendly if you ever plan on building your engine.. If your going to stay stock block for life and only want 400-480whp DJ Max! APS should be a fine cheap alternative.. Id rather Greddy or GTM TT and do it right the first time.. You could also PM members your questions with mods you may want to purchase.. I have received plenty of PM from members and always answer them asap.. I also ask other members questions and get answers that way because its to the point/ they have first and experience/ wont be bashing anyone if a Vendor doesnt like their comment....

If price is a factor dont even consider FI, your better off trading your car in for an FI OEM car.... This **** aint cheap!! 10-20k on stock block to do it right....

End Thread....

If you're thinking APS single you are a bit late. We had the last 13 of those kits produced by APS and sold out of them in late 2008. Unless you find one sitting in a warehouse somewhere or buy a used one they are all gone.

Stop the dreamer threads

We dont care what you decide on
We dont care that in 2011 you may go ST or TT

Thinking ahead...

We dont care when you ordered your FI kit
We dont care what shop it's going to (yet)
We dont care what whp you want
We KNOW that you wanna run 10's with an $8000 budget and no prior drag experience

Post a thread when it is all said and done with....provide pics, dyno numbers, driving impressions, shop review, etc, THEN you will have contributed to the community and not wasted my time in reading this crap or in writing this response.

Hey guys, just stopping in here to let you all know... I plan on going FI in the future. I don't know when, I don't know what kit, I don't even know my whp goals, but I'm just letting you all know this so I can keep you all on your toes.

I'll make a new thread to really make an impact.
