I'm just keeping my eye open for a single exhaust system like the Greddy. They usually come with the y-pipe. Otherwise, I'm looking for a good deal on JIC or Tanabe or both.

That Chargespeed kit is awesome. I remember thinking about it when I was looking for a new bumper.
Hey guys i have a question. I was just looking and just looking at some peoples builds. My question is does the turbonetics kit get a lot of heat soak being that the turbo is so crammed up front with no real ventalation?
Hey, Steve. Looks like I'll stay in Council Bluffs with my Marriott points. We should at least meet so we can see the girls and see if they approve of the arranged marriage.

It's a turbo, they get hot regardless of where it is in the engine bay, heat wrapping is a good idea.

yes it does... I have seen threads talking about 20+ degree higher intake temps with a TN kit vs other turbo setups. IMHO, TN is the equivalent of a fisher-price FI setup
Dave, Andrea and the girls are leaving early on thursday to go down to her parents place. I can meet up with you guys on friday because I'm not going out to her parents until saturday.

Yeah with my subaru that was always a big concer on how to keep the intake temps lower... I am trying to do some research for a friend who owns a Z as well. I have a Garrett 40r that was going to go on the Subi but he wanted it to go on his car so i am just trying to figure out what the ideal location for the turbo is
Just for ammusement what single turbo kit do you guys like the most?
