man... I've been wanting this kit for the longest time. Couldn't wait anymore last June, so I sent the car to VSR in FL. Car got messed up and now is in another shop. I should have just waited for a proper kit.
edit: from my understanding, the 370z exhaust piping was exactly the same on my single kit and the only difference was up front with the IC piping and intake piping.

The customer had a chance to test fit the VHR kit on an HR platform. It did not all bolt up as anticipated.
The VHR manifold worked just fine, but the IC piping did not. It looks like DE IC pipes from turbo to FMIC will work just fine though. The down pipe had a bit of a clearance issue right after the turbo, so I think a DE down pipe would also be needed to make this fit better.
I will keep you guys posted once the results are in.

Would buy single turbo kit for under $6k, no question. Not sure about everyone else but I really like the balance and am more interested in a 75-125hp increase than a 150-250hp increase. Daily driver with a bit more kick than a stock HR. That's what I want baaayaad.

First I want to say is the quality of your kits are impressive. I did have some questions however. On the twinscroll kits (that are mounted closer to the engine) do you use the E compressor housing for clearance? Or use the S compressor housing on both the twinscroll and mid mount kits? Have you ever tried Borg Warner turbos..specifically Airwerks? Not only are they cheaper, but their thrust bearings are far superior than PTEs. Thoughts on doing a kit with a Borg? Thanks.
