We always recommend a full return system, although a stage 0 kit will work when the project budget doesn't allow.

You can go either way, the choice is ultimately up to you. I would recommend a full return system.

Are injector upgrades recommended as well with a return system, or are the stock injectors sufficient for sub 500hp levels on the HR motors?

The injectors need to be upgraded regardless, the stock injectors will be maxed out right away. You need a minimum of 440cc injectors to get a mid to high 400rwhp power level.

Awesome stuff going on here. When I pick up my shop Z, I might have to bring it to you guys. I built my last TT, but never felt totally safe on my DIY tune, though it lasted for months until I sold it (never heard from the guy after I sold it).
Anyway, I know George can take care of me Great job guys!

The most we have seen so far is by Vinny Ten and Carl Stevens. Both claim to be at about 2200hp. Both were full drag cars. Vinny's was in the Pro RWD class and Carl ran Pro Modified and Outlaw 10.5. Vinny's fastest time was 6.63 @ 215 mph. Carl's car has gone 6.74 @ 213mph and that was on a 10.5 tire. The car is now owned by Al Anabi Racing which is the guys teaming up with Alan Johnson next year with his Top Fuel Teams. Injected Performance has the highest horsepower street car running 8.80 @ 163mph.

3. a personal check was sent for the kit, we stated we would have to wait 10 days for the check to clear and he understood, once the funds cleared we applied that credit to our customers account, since it is his kit, and the transaction is between him and your buddy.

4. We spoke to him John this morning, and he said to go ahead and ship the kit out, which we haven't done because he was undecided between this kit and the JWT 850 BB.

So please get your facts straight before trying to bash us on the forum.


P.S. If he would like to cancel the kit go ahead, we could care less that is between Your buddy and our customer. We are doing this service 100% for free to help our customer, we are actually losing time and money, for something we have zero to gain from.

That guy is a idiot for posting this. Again good work guys, so lets go get a 370z and move this over.

Sounds good, I am more and more thinking of the 370z. What do you think of the automatic transmission on it. I love the stir stick, but I am kind of getting tired of shifting and 7 speed just sounds cool.

I personally like automatic cars. A twin turbo set up will be fun on A/T ,although devolving a valve body upgrade for the new 7 speed will be interesting

Is that a modified steering U Joint? Will that work on the 2003 and up g35/350z?

Im having issues with my aps extreme kit hitting my U joint and wondered if this would work better (yes i already modified my U joint for clearance)

Congrats on the kit!
I always stuck on the aps, but this has definatly changed my mind.
Especially with the numbers forged just put down on the HR
Should have one ordered in time for install next summer.
Exactly what I'm looking for and the availability for upgrade is awesome.
Can't wait!

Its a brand new U-joint made specifically for our kits, but will fix the problem with the APS Extreme kits (I have the extreme on my car)

Shoot me a PM and Ill see what I can do for you
