And I haven't even scraped together enough cash for my TT kit yet. Next spring, I guess...

In other words, AFAIK with the 8psi reflash you'd be running slightly rich at 5 psi and slightly lean at 9psi.

recently i did a compressor flow chart with engine demand lines for the pe turbos....I have to say these turbos are absoutly a perfect match for the VQ35de and as they are ball bearing turbos they will of course offer superior spool time and performance as they are running as efficient as they can be at 8 psi!!!!
Add this to higher quality parts and a superior design and its hands down a better kit.
Im really excited to see some dyno charts hurry up!!!!

I don't really care if they crack... if they do, I'll replace them... everything else on the kit makes it worthwhile... =)
But I will look into those flex sections, my shop had already suggested that before.

Yes, it's a secret.
The shop that did all this amazing work and helped me throughout my ordeal deserves alot of credit, so yes I'd like to give a big thanks to ATX Motorsports out of Bergenfield, NJ. They have fixed many problems with my Greddy mis-installation and did a very clean install of my PE kit. I would recommend them over anyone in the tri-state area.
They also do AMAZING body work... I'm having my bodykit installed there and will take pictures/videos when I'm done to show you guys the quality of their work.
If you contact them, ask for Narvin, and tell them the assmonkey sent you..

Wow...that was a pretty informative post. I'm now actually thinking of bringing this kit higher in my priority list. Waiting for Jim Wolf is too long and i'm not sure about the APS kit yet. One question though.....does anyone know if when a single intercooler is on a g35 coupe...does the hindering of air from the design of the bumper affect the car performance wise?
