Single Z-owning women (or men if that's your bag) were all a'twitter and flush with excitement.

Starts thread in wrong section, wonders why smart answers abound.






I will now be moving the thread and asking the OP to change the title of it.

Forum is always full of trolls... Never any help.. SMH..

I would try and answer your question dude.. But I only know a little about Z FI kits..

Find a Z shop with good reviews or buy a quality kit and start googling from there. Dont bother coming back to this thread. You wont get any help... Its already too far gone and downhill from here... Trust me.

If the OP is in Canada like I think he is, access to a shop that has done work on a Z will probably be impossible. At least locally.

And to answer the original question, the turbo along with the engine should last a long time if you build it right from the beginning. Be sure to understand the level of maintenance required on a FI Z.

i was thinking the sfr single turbo it makes like 412 whp is that to much for stock motor?

Ray8674

kind of a stupid question but what do people mean by build there motor

MicVelo

OK, just so the humorless people on this thread don't believe there's a difference between joking and trolling, I'll take a stab here.

First off, the terminology "building your motor" can take on a lot of different meanings. In this particular thread, it would mean to take down the entire engine to the bare block level and preparing it for turbocharging.

To oversimplify what THAT means.... that means almost every component should be replaced (or re-worked) with stronger components that can take the heat, cylinder pressures, and all of the other strains that forced induction puts on one's basic engine.

Pistons, rods, rings, valves, gaskets, the works. In addition, there are the changes that while not NECESSARY; should be changed or altered to get the most out of the positive pressure application. Things like sodium filled valves, cam profiling/degreeing, Ti valve springs, and not to leave out the other side of the hardware/software equation, the tuning/mapping of the ECM.

So basically, the answer to all of the questions you've asked here:

To do it right, you're going to need to plan out then build out everything.... NOT just to slap a snail or two onto the exhaust pipe.

Engine, software, ancillaries.... all need to be re-worked TO DO IT RIGHT.

And therein lay the reason I don't really believe in aftermarket turbocharging a stock block. NOT saying it can't be done, not at all, there's lots of successful blown applications here. But to do it right takes a lot of planning, skills, and money to do it absolutely correct. Oh, and patience..... Heh heh.

^Jesus Christ guy, go read the dang sticky thread 'Forced Induction for Noobs' - https://my350z.com/forum/forced-indu...for-noobs.html and save us from having these really repetitious and annoying threads that clutter up the sub-forum. You made the right choice getting on this forum, but damn... the answers you seek are all here my child... just go find, read, and become enlightened.

Ray8674

I checked out the OP's profile. He's only 20 years old and is most likely day dreaming like I was at his age. Threads like this pop up on every forum and get the same exact results. He could've done his own research but like most of the kids these days, they like to be spoon-fed with the info even though the information has been posted to prevent threads like this. I'm willing to bet $ we won't hear from the OP again after he realizes the amount of work that is involved going to forced induction.

Ray8674

It's gunna be like 2-3 years before I even plan to turbo my z gotta get the money lol I have to admit I know next to nothing about cars and not very good with mechanical stuff but I'm trying my best to learn. And nah man I ain't lazy wtf lol
