I am sure you will like what you hear. With the F.I resonated exhaust all you hear is the turbo. It really is a great combination of parts.

As for the ported turbo.....I was hoping it would work, but there is just not enough room on the 370z. The 3 bollt header flange is just too large, and hangs very low. The fact that the charge piping coming off the compressor is right there does not help either. The E compressor cover that I use fits just perfect though.

On the 350z I am able to use the SP cover:






On the 350z though, the charge piping is routed very different, since the starter is on the passenger side, and there is a lot of room on the drivers side (don't mind the random color couplers and the squashed air filter, this was still in the test fit stage for the very first twin scroll kit for the VQ's):
