Nice pics! Look forward to seeing more as well as pic of the install! I've very interested in picking up this kit for my high mileage G35 especially after speaking with Taylor over at Momentum. He was very helpful! You don't see that from many vendors these days.

QUICK UPDATE!

so i went to the garage this past saturday and going on what Infinite1 said, Frank was talking about how his G35 kit he was currently installing came with a piece made for the 350z and not G35, and after only being on the phone for about 10 minutes with Momentum they had the part next day air'ed to Hills Garage. NO BS, NO DELAY!

The real deal? I'm starting to believe.

INSTALL AND DYNO VIDS COMMING SOON, STAY TUNED!

ooooooh It's more then a DD now. come down here and try it your self.
really loved the spool up it feels more like a TT not a ST.
I was trying to get more info from the other owners in the forum but no one really
gave a feedback about the kit. anyway just don't rush it.
I did babe my z for 500 miles after install and I just got done with it yesterday.
I believe it's not necessary but I do that after every FI/clutch/engine install.

Our standard kit has made 580 on 1 bar, If you want more power, there are power upgrades available for upwards of 800whp. Our kit has less back pressure and is a more efficient design, and in most cases, our kit produces more power on less boost than a TT setup.

We only have the graphs of our test vehicles. My only opinion is to compare from what others have posted. One customer took his TT kit off and made more power on less boost.. And also third party tests are more likely to be un-biased.

I'm eagerly waiting to see what your kit does with a bigger turbo with pictures, dyno ect. I've tracked down a few GT37 Powerlab posts and they seems pretty good except there were posts about limited GT37 trims for that application, I don't believe they crack 600whp on pump where as you guys are sitting in the mid 500's with a GT35. I'm very happy with the idea of making 500+whp with a built motor on my car but what's keeps me going back to the idea of twins in the option to run big power. I may get board.

Taylor, what specific turbo and trim are you referring too when you say 800whp? Thanks

Working on a deal with frank to have the momentum kit put on after my car gets out the paint booth at D&V auto.

Frank said the guys from momentum may come up and film the install .

Cant wait!
