Jtran Studios Presents turbo kits (fabrication thread) *updated with numbers page 7

Here at the shop we have been working non stop to produce some turbo kits for a few different line of cars. One that we are working on now is a single turbo kit for the 350z's. its heart of it will be a gt4088 with a .95 ar. its basically a low mount setup. finalizing all pipes today. intercooler was finalized yesterday. below is some pics of some fabrication we have done so far! as stated, we will be updating this thread forever!

What do you mean by low mount setup? Something similar to that of the APS ST kit? What would be really sweet is to make a setup that locates the turbo near the front bumper in the area between the bumper and the wheel well on the drivers side. There was a DIY that someone a while back was doing like this....

Manifold work looks great. Love the GT-R collectors.
Quick question: Any particular reason for choosing a 4088R for the single VQ35 kit? (From personal experience - *Although not on a VQ35* - I've never really been happy or impressed with any 4088R in the real world, not on paper this comp map vs that map).
IMO, there are other Garrett and BorgWarner choices which in my experience have proven to be more efficient, provide more power and faster spool for power range, or only slightly slower(in some cases negligible) pickup for a much broader power range (EX: TO4Z, 4094, T4S366-74 etc over a 4088R).
Regardless, kit looks great and has a ton of potential. And a lot of the Garrets are frame interchangeable anyway. Goodluck. In for first numbers!

decided on the 4088 just due to the size of the turbo and knowing that we can spool it. its a t4 divided with twin wastegates. our powerband we are looking for is from 4200-5100 to 7200-7600. customer wanted something that was different from everyone else but at a great price. if it doesnt spool the way we want it to, we will go smaller on the exhaust housing
