I know that many of you have the ATI SC installed and most of you are not having problems with them.

Just so I can get a perspective on this product, please post how many miles you have put on your 350Z since you installed the ATI SC.

If you could, give your impressions of the performance of the kit, service, and reliability you have personally experienced. I want to know the pros and cons of the product.

I think a lot of time and debate has gone into the "Max & ATI" situation. At best it is questionable if that car was a fair representation of what to expect from a VQ35 motor converted from stock into an ATI kit car. Lets forget Max on this thread and focus on the rest of you ATI owners. I am getting a limited persective of this product based upon 3 blown up motors but there is a lot more of you with other experiences with the kit. Lets hear about your experiences?

Finally, if you had the option, would you buy this kit again and tell us why you feel that way.

Thanks, Jeff

 

I have just about 3000 miles on mine (8000 on the car) and it is great. No problems at all. Love the power. I have done two oil changes so far. Plan on doing them every 3500 or so when I do the engine oil (Redline).

 

the kit is wonderful. i have about 300 miles on it now and still have no problems. If anyone is interested, im planning to sell it for 4000... kit is in perfect condition, absolutely nothing wrong with it. reason im selling it is because im planning to get my new turbo kit soon.

 

I have about 7500 miles on mine........i had my #6 spark plug close on me, and narrowly escaped getting serious engine damage.......it was professionally installed and professionally tuned by a guy with 15+years experience at tuning hi-performance imports......the FMU on my car cannot be adjusted rich enough to eliminate detonation above 6K rpms........if i had it to do all over again, i wouldn't

 

EJ are you planning on running at the track anytime soon?

 

2800 miles, installed and tuned by me and running strong as ever. If I could do it over would I, hell yeah.

 

you wouldnt? to much of a headache?

 

Well, not until i take the Procharger off at least......i can't run it above 6Krpms without getting detonation, and i usually shift right before redline

It's too damn scary.......everytime i run up past 5Krpms, i sh*t my pants.......and too much R&D too.....this kit is advertised as 100% complete, but it's not.......not if you want your engine to stay alive

 

Just wondering, which Turbo kit are you getting? Can you explain your reason for going turbo? Is it more about the advantages of the turbo or the disadvantages of the SC?

Something seems odd, to say I have 300 miles on it and still no problems seems to imply the expectation of this kit is 1-2 tanks full of gas before problems occur. In addition, it seems you must be disappointed in it to sell it 300 miles after being installed. I am sure you knew turbo kits were just around the corner, it has been the topic of dozens of threads thus it does not make since to install a SC and then 300 miles later, spend thousands of dollars more to change it to another FI system.
