Turbonetics Single Turbo Kit..Pics/Videos
$10,000 says that there will be a Turbonetics stock motor that blows. It's like murpheys law 
APS ($$$ R & D) and HKS (low boost and HP anyway) are still new. Stillen doesn't have our crappy plemums.
You really gotta lighten up, cause you come off as mean sometimes.

Yes the Greddy kit makes that power at 5.6 PSI which is how it comes from Greddy. This kit happens to come set at 8 PSI and makes more. Is it going to be the same power at the same boost level no...of course not. The kits are different. That is the point. Just as with the Greddy kit you could turn up the boost on this and make more. To each their own. If I mistook your intent I apologize but i am tired of people talking **** about something pre-release with no research having been done. Until others start installing and posting numbers I think it is pre-mature to make any assumption as to what this kit is or can do. I will be picking up my car this coming Friday (should be at least) and i will be sure to get to a Dynojet dyno to post my numbers within days of that. Until then i think it is safe to say that not all dynos are going to be the same and the basis for your argument lies in a total of ONE dyno test that clearly appears to have been incorrect.

I was posting the question and information in the most balanced manner possible with no negative intentions toward you due to your previous strong reactions to questions. The point is to provide both sides of the information, if you only get one side that information is pretty useless correct or not.
As far as breaking motors, it will happen but more than likely it will be when people start pushing beyond the "out of the box" tune. The reason kits listed above have yet to pop motors is due to the lack of ability to upgrade (HKS, Stillen) and the others are very new (APS) or very few units sold (Ulitmate Racing)
Keeptrying: I'm guessing your kidding?
basam350z:They did it on 91 octane on a Dynojet with A/F in the 11:1 to 11.5:1 for the whole time it was in boost. It's a nice flat line.

Temperature and dyno calibration have a lot to do with it as well. Remember that in Socal its rarely a cool day. What were the environmentals.

While I'm no expert for sure, wouldn't they have posted SAE corrected numbers that are adjusted to represent readings at a standardized temperature, pressure, etc, which effectively nullifies these variances?

From Brad's previous post, there will be two kits available? One compatible with Cats, the other without? If this is so, then there's gotta be different numbers on each kit, right? The only thing that makes me nervous is if the in-box tune is safe or not? I would be perfectly happy with a 380whp reliable car.

I'm not sure what the numbers are with the cat. I asked them to leave mine catless but I know they were going to test both setups on my car...

I hope that Brad gets a chance to come back and answer my questions from my earlier post about the cats. Here in VA, we have a bi-annual emissions test. I'm wondering if the car would pass a sniffer test with the cats. If not, then there is really no point in keeping them is there?
