360ish RWHP. Ported heads.

Feel free to merge this with whatever build thread they used. Just couldn't find it.

Damn that would great if they reopened. I wish they'd start making the longtubes again. I'm sure they would sell a lot more of them if they were about $1800 instead of 2200.

Man, $1800 still seems really high, I am not saying they are not high quality, but just too much. I also thought they were closing up shop.

As for ITB's on a lot of the guys rolling a full NA setup would see 20+ hp from it, a higher redline and so responsive!

Makes me wish I was keeping my car...

I wish OBX would make a cheap set of ITB's for this car. They wouldn't be the greatest but they would drum up interest in the topic.

Oh well, time to move on like you said. Looks like you are getting something a little more practical. My close buddy just got the 335is and it's pretty darn fast. Are you planning to get the n54 or n55?

So, does anybody know if SGM is actually closed or not? Good to see them still at it on the Z, though.

N54, everything I read said it really didn't make a difference between the twin turbos and the single twin scroll, plus, the n54's are way cheaper! It might even be just as fast as my 350z was.

The site had been down and I thought it was because they had shut down but...

Hopefully Sasha can chime in and sort this out. I just got my Z in September and about the time I discovered them and their work for NA Z's they anounced they were closing up shop. Very keen for them to stick around.
