Yeah the thread is old but Sasha still makes turbo kits for the Z

 

shoot if this single works out screw supercharger i want this.

 

How does one get in contact with him ? Sent him fb message, pm on here, posted in 2 of his threads . Anyone got a email ?

 

Did the same over months of time. Ended up choosing to do LS swap in the winter.

 

no idea. definitely want to know whats going on with this

 

Sent a message to Sasha explaining I would either drive or ship my HR to him for making a kit. Waiting on a response but not sure I'll get a response.

I've been contemplating an LS swap the past couple weeks and am still leaning towards that. But, I might do this if Sasha is willing to work with me and do the LS swap at a later time.... We'll see.

 

Theres one guy on here with an HR running Sasha's single turbo he made close to 500 whp. It fits well with a few modifications. I will most likely be getting that when sasha is back from vacation.

 

Edit: I Have no affiliation with z fever in tampa. I have heard good things about them and plan on going to them in the future. just thought i'd share this video.

 

I've played a ton with TT setups and high TQ down in the midrange, kinda more looking to migrate to a power setup that is on the higher RPM band 5K+ RPM's. Thinking of a big single approach.

Have you thought about offering anything bigger than a 6262? Say something with 900+ HP capability in a kit form vs. going custom? Be nice to switch to a less moving parts setup that can just keep building all the way to redline.

Current setup on twin GT28's peaks and falls off before redline, could upgrade to twin GT30's or something, but wouldn't mind just going big single even if its laggy, doesn't matter as WOT fun runs are usually in the high RPM range anyway.

 

I believe this kit can be ordered with a 6766, or 6870.

 

I personally would stick with sasha. I have never heard about z fever having a single turbo. Whats the price range for the kits?

 

Don't understand this dedication to vertical flow intercoolers in the Z community. Vertical flow intercoolers cool like hot garbage and are generally inferior by nature of their design

 

they use it for the 370z. I read somewhere on the fever racing facebook that this kit is 10,900.

 

Quiet the opposite actually. What is your statement based on? Research? Real world application? or something your read somewhere?

 

not to knock any design but i was also curious why you did go across the motor instead of to a single in single out i/c

 

real world.... Not only have I ran a vertical flow intercooler and quite a few different crossflows and tuned with them. Also Full-race, buschur as well as others have tested vertical flows vs a cross-flow (The Evo and DSM community its been tested many times). The vertical flows are more efficient vs pressure drop typically than a cross flow, which is true. However by nature of their design the short tubes in a vertical flow do not cool the charge as well as a cross flow where they are 2-3 times as long. The end result generally is the cross flow in the same size (as a vertical flow) generally tend to be more efficient in the long run and especially when you tend to run in the upper efficiency of a compressor map. Generally the advantage in pressure drop does not out weight the difference in cooling ability in most applications that I have seen and tested myself. I have ran many different setups, built engines etc for the last 10 years...even ran as high as 30 pounds of boost on 93 pump gas on my personal car without methanol injection. We have also made 600+ WHP on RB25s & RB26s with 5" cross flows running 30 psi or more on 93-94 pump gas.


Honestly as great as your kit is (which I think is a beautifully constructed kit), I think those that wish to put down high pump gas numbers would benefit greatly from a 4.5" garret or 5" ETS core...just my opinion.

 

If you want z fever, go for it. Over priced and its in house install only. They do not ship nor will they in the future. Every install is constructed completely different. No consistency.

 

10,900 is way too expensive. Not saying its not a good kit but I wouldn't even check it out at that price.

 

seriously overpriced regardless of the quality. Still think bang for the buck BP's kit is the best on the market IMO.

 

What are high pump numbers?

With all the kits I have out there, IAT's have never been an issue to be honest. There are a few customer that track this kit as well without IAT's going more than 20% above ambient. Even customers making close to 700whp (DJ) on pump gas at 18psi have not had IAT issue. This is however with 1.32 a/r T4 turbine housings.

Now to flip the coin, I have read plenty of threads here where guys are using a GT35r turbo with .82 a/r turbines along side massive cross-flow FMIC's, where IAT's were a huge issue at much much lower HP levels.

So, with a properly sized, well flowing turbine housing (T4 is all I ever use) IAT's are not going to be a problem at all. The FMIC used on all the kits I have built has proven to work very well with customers making over 900whp, so I am not inclined to change anything if it has proven itself to work well.
