here goes the list:

APS twin turbo kit $7450
APS high volume intake plenum $395
APS High Volume Oil Pan $395
APS 2.5" High Flow Dual Exhaust $1290

now...is there anything missing in this list to end up with a very reliable everyday car(how much can i up the boost before blowing the engine)(how much rwhp are we looking at at stock psi)? or better yet...is there anything that i dont really need?


thanks

Moose

HI there Moose,

You can take out the 2 row radiator since the 350z ME specs already has it and you also need to look into getting a good clutch (I use Exedy twin carbon, its good). I would also get SS break lines. Since I installed the TT on my car I have noticed that the breaks fade after a good run it gets really hot in the engine bay.

I 2nd the vented hood, thats what is next on my list.

You are mistaken.. Road and Track tested the 911TT and got the following numbers.

4.0sec 0-60mph, 9.2sec 0-100mph, 1/4mile in 12.4@115.

The APS kit got 12.1 but that was with DR's.

Best to see Ivan, he's the man who built the huge reputation for Mo's workshop. Ivan is an excellent engine builder (one of the best I've ever seen) and had built many of the fatest cars in the UAE.

From: half past the monkey's *** and
Default Other things to consider

I'm still learning on the considerations of FI and specifically to this thread, TT. Wouldn't DXB350Z need to consider reinforced axles, engine mounts, closed deck engine block (since the VQ is aluminum engine block) and wider tires? I suppose most have chosen not to get stronger parts for these areas since I haven't read much on these on the site.

What are the existing TT owners doing for these strengthening considerations? Are they just keeping the boost conservative to avoid the extra strain to the engine block and other parts in consideration? I'm sure alot of this has to do with dollar bills ya'll.

Also, a related question regarding the Unorthodox crutch pulley. Can I use my unorthodox crutch pulley with the APS TT or does is require the stock pulley? I haven't done too much with my Z. Just crutch pulley, Injen CAI, hotchkis sway bars fsb:rsb, grounding kit.

Thanks.

Another question in trying to understand how people are implementing their TT systems.
I don't want to take the wind out of the APS TT topic as it is certainly impressive.

I've read and heard that due to the combination of turbo lag and lower compression, TT systems can be a bear in every day driving. How are people over coming this? NOS, freer airflow?
I hope this helps DBX350Z as much as it will me as I'll be going FI next summer.

They both have very comparable 1/4mile times.
somebodys dreaming. 4 seconds 0-60

It all depends on what you want from your TT conversion, the standard APS kit will give you 380/390rwhp no worries and on stock internals (low 12sec car), which is where I'm at, and let me tell you that's quite a jump in output and the nice thing is, there is no and I mean no lag with this setup it's a great daily drive, I drive every day around heavy traffic to and from work with no issues, it's just a joy to drive period. Now if you wish to go with more power then it's engine mods here with come and maybe lower the compression ie 9.5:1 or stay with stock compression (no lag) this would be good for up to 450/470rwhp as a daily drive IMO.

Thanks ZZZ-35 for the info. I'm still learning about FI and asking the questions of a newbie. but also wanted to do a sanity check with folks that already have FI'd. That's great to know about the lag and I'm sure it's very rewarding to hear the turbos spin every day
