Ya know what would make this thread better? Instead of bashing peoples stuff, offer suggestions on what would work better. Obviously I'm looking into a replacement turbo, I've had good results from Precision Turbo's equipment. Any other ideas?

The cars build is as follows

Turbonetics Single Turbo Kit
Greddy Emanage Ultimate
Kinetics Intake Plenum
Unorthodox Crank Pulley
DC Stainless Headers
Injen Dual Angled Exhaust
Greddy Turbo Timer

Wings West Front and Side Skirts
Nismo Rear Skirts
JP visage rear wing
Seibon Vader CF Hood
Black LED Tails
Clear rear corner lights

Tanabe Springs with full camber kit
Racing Hart wheels 19X10 front/19X11 rear staggered
Nitto Neogen Tires

Kenwood Excellon DD DVD & Nav
3 JL 10" Subs

If it were my car i would get rid of the very restrictive Injen exhaust, lose the cheap *** crank pulley and get one that is a damper or at least go back to the stock one. Get rid of the sh1tty emanage, go back to the stock intake with a spacer and you would make more power and buy a better turbo kit before throwing a bunch of money at the one you have. To put it simply who ever built the car did it cheaply and with no research pretty much all of the parts you listed are among the worst possible for making power with Forced induction, sometimes the truth hurts

The truth does hurt sometimes but I do however know a thing or 2 and I wouldn't bash someone for the gear their car already had on it. Sad part is I'm about halfway through a complete rebuild of another vq35 to swap into it once I get pcsed to the west coast.

again with the ingnorant comments.. 1) being a mechanic means NOTHING when it comes to VQ's.. some of the top mechanics and tuners in this country were blowing up VQ's left and right because they are too tempermental.. 2) i said the kit was for people who are able to do their own work.. aka a mechanic

sad part is.. you have zero to know experience with VQ's.. i don't care if you used to build engines by hand and another poster who has been here for 3 years is a stock broker who doesn't know the difference between a phillips and a flat head..

the fact of the matter is.. the amount of information the stock broker has on the VQ suprasses anything you know.. because they have read all the info.. the trials and tribulations.. what works and what doesn't.. and right now you're showing your ignorance of VQ's and Forced Induction

LOL @ the know it all noobs

Injen 2" NA exhaust with a ST kit, worthless mods like an UDP and headers with this kit LMAO! Even mentioning Racing $hart wheels or black LED tails shows the mentality of the new generation Z owner. You couldnt pay me to put that garbage on my car, especially the Wigs West body parts-straight from the worthtless mags like dpsort who have huge ads for the ricers to dream about.

I had a TN kit back in the day, I NEVER had an issue with the kit itself, I installed it in a garage with friends. BUT-the kit/tuner/my driving lead to it blowing up after 3000 miles. Once I sold my kit though the turbo failed 2x in less than 3000 miles the bitter situation and constant repairing caused that owner to walk away from the platform. The wastegate cracked also lol...

But I was and still am (on the forums at least) the only TN kit to hit 11's turbo only -AJ did it also but with N20.

If I knew how many 40 year old dousche bags that still live with their moms were on here I wouldn't have joined. Ripping on someone for liking the appearance of a body kit is just plain retarded, and doug your showing your ignorance right now, the VQ35DE isn't a machine from the future it needs the same things as any other engine. Fuel, Air, and Spark(or heat in the case of a diesel) put down the popular science magazine and move out of your moms basement. See ya'll at the track.

More ignorance again.. do you have any idea how many shops have succesfully tuned Forced Induction VQ's over and over? i'll give you a hint.. you can only count them on 1 hand..

Now can you count how many succesful Supra Tuners have blown up VQ's trying to build and tune them? i will give you a hint.. you can't count them on two hands..

i will help you out a little because you are IGNORANT .. the VQ35DE has a very complex ignition system, that once the timing is too advance the engine will blow.. Julian from MRC Motorsports used to conservatively tune his cars with low timing up top, though they brought smaller numbers than others.. the cars lasted.. Jeremey Tibbs from FL used to laugh at him and told him he could put out big numbers.. almost all the cars Jeremy tuned eventually blew up.. When the Greddy Kit was first released it kept blowing up cars with the Emanage Blue, until Greddy finally figured out to release a Timing Harness that would retard the timing at high RPMS.. that proved to stop the cars from spewing coolant out the motor and blowing..

Before you come on this forum with your all knowing thinking that all these cars are the same because you've tune this car and you've tuned this car.. you need to close your mouth and read more.. I would never bring my car to any tuner in CT because they think like you, and they've blown up multiple 350z's and G35's..

but guess what? i have no idea what i'm talking about.. so yes.. you Mr. All Knowing.. keep going forward.. because your general car knowledge outweighs my 9 years of reading about Forced Induction 350z's and what cases them to work or not work

FYI on your personal attack on Alberto and myself.. Alberto isn't even 30 yet and is very succesful with multiple vehicles.. a very succesful job.. a fiance and his own place to live.. i myself though over 30 am doing pretty well for myself also.. learn who you're insulting before you trying and make yourself seem smarter than you are.. because you seem to have a knack for doing that. I maybe a douche bag, but i'm a 32 year old douchebag with a succesful career and my own TownHouse

Alright guy I'm ending this crap once and for all. 1) I've BUILT and TUNED THE HARDEST ENGINE TO MAKE LAST IN THE IMPORT INDUSTRY, the 13B. In fact I've done several one of which is still running on the same 5 year old Apex seals from my first build on the car and is putting down just a measily 515whp. 2 Audi's have a very complex ignition system too, I've built and tuned more of those than you can count on 2 hands and their all still on the road. And as for your "career" assault, I've spent the past 7 1/2 years as active duty Army with 3 combat tours to the middle east totaling 42 months in the **ithole of the globe. I OWN a townhouse, a beach house on lake superior, a 36 foot Warlock Catamaran with a pair of puny ZZ502's powering it. Now tell me jack*** how much more successful than me you are
