Default JWT twin turbo system?

Does anyone have any information about the JWT twin turbo kit?

nice find.

if you take notice to one EXTREMELY important factor...

the MAF is before the turbos. This kit might actually leave the car running perfect. If JWT figured out the 350z ECU as well as they did the 300ZX ECU, we are all in for a real, real big treat. This could mean a perfectly running car without having to use a standalone, something JWT did for the older nissans.

I have used JWT for lots of things, and their eventual customer service has been superb... I said eventual just because the guy who answer the phone over there for tech support gets a little cocky. But that aside, I love what this company does. Great **** they got.

Just curious,

But why would it make a difference where the MAF is placed? By definition it is measuring the MASS of the air, which is the same in front of the turbo (low pressure, high flow) as it is after the turbo (high pressure, lower flow). In either case, the stock MAF will not be able to read the full amount of incoming air. Also, how would your wastegates affect your A/F if you vent after the MAF? To me it seems even worse the have the MAF in front of the turbos, rather than as close to the heads as possible.

Am I missing something here?

Thanks,
D'oh!

I imagine 350z will probably have different intercooler setup? one instead of two?

This looks promising, JWT does a lot with the 300ZX and this should be a quality product, I'll be saving my cash.

I wonder if there would be more psi loss with this intercooler setup over say the ATI,Greddy, or PE kits with the single intercooler?

Wow, great find. JWT has done some amazing things for the Z32. Let's hope he has done an equally amazing job at creating a TT kit for the Z33.

I can't wait to hear more on this.

I saw this last week on the site and didn't post about it since I figured it would be a repost.

JWT = Rock stars

Can't wait to hear more about this.
