Exclamation 525whp Z---> 45-150mph Video

I posted this in the FI section in my thread, not many of you may go over there, so here it is...

Little update on my ride...I have 2000 miles on the motor now, no issues at all, its running GREAT. 1500-2000 more miles and I'll start running the Motul I have sitting here. BTW-here is a quick vid I just shot, first time with the camera mount in this location. I'll zoom in to the tach/speedo only next time so you can see it better-as this isnt very clear. First run is uphill from 45-150mph, 2nd run is from somewhere in 2nd gear to 140mph...low boost on both.

Wow nice. So you got a build motor with a turbo set up. I dont want to sound rude, but how much did this cost you the build up of the motor and what did you do to the engine. Thanks.

13psi low boost.

Yes I started in 2nd gear. I had good success with bolt-ons but you simply cannot compare 262whp to 525whp, even with the old TN set-up, its night and day difference. Once you go turbo, you never go back.

skidmarq-thanks for posting that link...

Dubai-thank you, did Sharif send out your TN kit + injectors yet?

Not yet. still trying to figure which oil cooler and radiator that will fit with the TN! I can skip the radiator but oil cooler is a must for where I live.

What you are hearing are the Forged 3" dowpipes with open dumps. When they open, you cant even hear the APS exhaust, I love it. Vids dont do it justice though, much better in person.

1/4 times will come, for now Im not worried about that. Greddy because its the best tuner kit out IMO, and has great potential with the standard snails....
