No y-pipe is used with the turbo kit.

Some headers interfere with the downpipe/up-pipe. We do not advise to expect aftermarket headers to fit if there is no prior knowlege of them fitting. We only use ours with our kits, so we dont know if others fit or not.

its wise that they at least attempt to because other shops would be less supportive of their product if they were seen as a competitor rather then a vendor.

^ Looking good, glad we'll have another turbo Z in the area. They are doing things old school, pulling the engine with a cherry picker. If you need anything, remember we are just south of you in KY.

My car is currently at Kaizen Tuning in Mass and I'm having them install my Brian Crower stroker kit and I'm strongly considering purchasing this kit as well. I wasn't so sure when I first spoke to Scott (president) about it but after performing a few months worth of research, I'd say I'll be the next in line to sport this kit and show of my car for next years car shows including Zdayz.

She has been gone 2 and 1/2 weeks so far. Been getting the build for that whole time. I bought the Momentum kit and cant wait for it to be done with. He is still installing it though :/ long time if you ask me. Not even gone for tuning.

make sure to swap the tiny gt35 out for a 6756. the gt35 turbo is too small for a stroked motor.

Why not just take the gt3794r upgrade momentum offers with the kit.
That turbo can make over 800whp.

ya, you have to use that Garret since the kit uses a Tial turbine housing. There isnt a tial available for a PTE.
