i dont think ill be able to get twins. the price for twins is too high and i wont be able to really use them because i wont have money for a built block for a while. so i was considering either st or sc. it seemed like an sc worked really well for u. im in college and can only work a part time job right. how much did u end up paying after u got it installed and tuned?

 

Around 10k. I also had to get supporting mods, accessories, and a new clutch and flywheel, and tires also. People get stuff for different prices too. I done all the installs myself with the aid of my cousin(mechanic) If you have the money now, then PM me. I will have a chat with you and point you in the right direction.

 

i dont have enough right now. i jus paid tuition but ill probably only have 6k in about a month or 2. so FI is still pretty far away for me..

 

Cool man. I have a single turbo Z at my house right now. It's built motor, but the car is running horrible. We diagnosing it, changing out a few things, and also putting in a new clutch/flywheel. Anyway, let me know when you get closer and I'll square you away.

 

thanks man. ill def get back to u about that.

 

wow and to think i was aiming for fi somewhere in the distant future..

 

to do any fi the right way you should look to spend somewhere between 15000 and 20000 and that should put you at about 500 rwhp. i have priced it out a few times with drew from raretrick and even with a hook up i cant get it for less than like 16000

 

what about a straight up bolt on single turbo? that should run around 10k right?

 

i would say yea about 10 you could do twins and install for 10000 but not built motor i think SGP was doing a special for like 10000 for greddy twins and install

 

thizzle.. how about gauges and wideband? thats 400$ right there used and not to mention installation of these items. Also utec is 700 but you need map selector which is another 80-100$ and when you put that oil pan on.. you're not gonna believe this, but you'll have to put more oil into it! lol... i'm just saying.. i'd wait and save a little more man.

 

QFT. If you do it, do it right.

 

chi...just wait bro....

 

like i said before i'm not trying to discourage you at all. I got BADA$$ deals on all my parts (used parts at that). And it still cost me about 8K and i did the install myself.

 

Oh, Also.. My bike is ready! Tomorrow my friend is droppin my roommate and I off in alabama and we're riding our bikes back. Hope to have pictures late tomorrow night. Everyone try not to drool on their keyboards at the pics of my bike. Or of me you horny ******

 

from what u guys are sayin it sounds like the z sucks lol. it costs so much money to get to 500whp. u could buy a second z and have 2. for 20g's i might jus go with ls1 swap or something.

 

who said 500 rwhp would be cheap and 500rwp is alot more than you think it is. so yea for 50000 you can have a new z and 500whp. name another car that you can do that with and still look as good as the z.

 

50k? wow the prices keep goin up. they have a used viper on vets at the lexus place for about that much.

 

i am saying with the price of the car brand new about 30000 and everything you should need to make 500 rwhp and be reliable thats about 20000, and no the viper doesnt have that much rwhp and yea it is used and alot more money to keep maintained and gets like 5MPG.

 

i dont think a 500whp z is gonna get that great of milage either cuz i get about 20 right now with only like 243 whp. but i bet the vipers faster lol . its got like a buncha torque.

 

it really depends.. of course you'll be using larger fuel injectors, but if you stay out of boost, you can cruise at -20 Vacuum.
