My fastest time to Vegas from OC was 3 hours, and that was going at a constant speed of 100mph. I would be amazed if you make it under 3 hours.

From reading the past 15 pages, I felt most member who were all in for the single turbo kit didn't realize how hard it is to get emission done in most states for an average Joe. Everyone have a crooked inspector lined up to take the extra cash?? Are you planning taking off the kit when emission is due?? CARB in California is a whole different issue, I'm not even going to get into that.
I been through that problems many years with my last street/race car which incorporated a custom catless full-race turbo system. Beautiful 3 inch downpipe with Tri Y outlet connected to another non resonated 3 inch exhaust system - Cat less.
But guess what?? I can't pass emission and I need to because I still drive the car around town occacionally. With no emission, I get no registration. With no registration, I get no insurance. Then I'm suspended because I have non of the above.
So, yes.... I had to take one of the two choices up top so you can guess which one.
I hope Turbonetic would develope the kit that incorporate cats and good cats, not those couple month fall-a-part POS you can buy aftermarkets. I have not seen one clear picture of the manifold/exhaust/turbo section so I can't say if rooms was an issue.
I wrote this because many of my clients ask me as simple as a bolt on exhaust I sold to them were legal or not all the time. What am I going to say to them about turbonetics single turbo kit for the 350Z?? Is turbonetics going to print a big warning label on the box stating " FOR OFF ROAD USE ONLY" so they can get away from being sued??

Another note from reading the past 15 pages. NO NISSAN DEALERSHIP will ever sell this kit for their new car bolt on predelivery with WARRANTY ( selling this kit at their parts/performance combined department will be more likely). Emission/catless is one thing, this kit has just about everything the dealership love to void your warranty.

I can probably go on with more questions/reliability problems/kit efficiencies but I'll stop here because Peter@APS got flamed pretty hard by one individual for interfering Turbonetics advertisment.
I'll wait for the first buyer impression thread to see some results.
