so this kit's going to replace the Y? If I misread and it's not going to replace the Y, let's decide which Y is going to the best for the kit? same for headers...just throwing some spice into the thread because it seems like everyone's nagging mia about when his car's going to be finished instead talking about something or anything related to the kit...

From what Brad from Turbonetics said as long as the headers exits in the facotry Header exit location they should work fitment wise.

Yeah, but he is talking about Xerds, which are longtube and include piping for what would have been the cats. They extend beyond the factory header exit location.

Right Xerds wont work but my statement was in reference to his last statement of "wonder how other headers will fit". Other headers should fit fine as long as the exit in the factory location. But longtubes like the Xerd probably wont..

How many miles was put on the car after the single turbo was installed and were there any problems since? What are the chances of throwing a rod or blowing the motor on stock boost? Do you think just reinforcing my motor before putting a turbo on it would be the best way to go because I'm always hearing horror stories of blown motors because the rods are the weak link in the motor. I don't want to be kicking myself in the azz when I should of killed two birds with one stone you feel me. TIA for any advice.

You can throw a rod without doing anything to your engine.

Gaining any more HP over what the engine was delivered with invites the same potential.

If you are going to generate more power, then yes you should build your engine up.

If you have the ability/funds to build your motor, don't think twice about it, "just do it".

As far as "need" goes, that's where everyone has an opinion.

I have the APS TT kit, with their design and research, we are banking on 400whp being the max output without building the engine.

Only time will tell.

The Turbonetics Single Turbo Kit has been on their Z for quite a long time and it has been getting thrashed the majority of the time without problems. That being said anything is possible when you boost your motor. The Turbonetics kits goal is close to 400 RWHP reliabley
