Chapter 2: Turbo Goodies
Not much went on in that time. My CSC went out, of course. Luckily it was covered under warranty:
And I picked me up a real daily so I could begin some real mods for the Z:
My original plan for the 350z was to get a Boosted Performance turbo kit. But since it got totaled, and I had a 370z, I had to find an alternate route. Luckily for me, Sasha started making them for the 370z shortly after I got mine
I have been following Sashas work for quite a while. Since his "BoostedProbe" days on my350z. I was impressed with his work from day 1, so its only natural that I became a customer
After a brief fiasco with GTM and a $475 loss to me, I switched from their group buy to the BP kit. I got the kit in March and was like

I bought the tuner kit because I already had the Uprev "Tuner" version from my 350z. For fuel I went with the CJM RRP. I have never tracked my car, but if I ever wanted to, I didn't want to be limited by fuel starvation. Ill say this..... that install sucked. Connecting those 3 hoses to the barb fittings was the biggest pain in the
I also decided to go ahead and get a clutch and install it. Of course I got the zspeed CSC. I chose the Z1 6 puck clutch and steel flywheel. The install was just your average clutch install.
After breaking the clutch in, I dove into the turbo install. I was so excited about working on it, I didn't take many pictures
I ended up getting some DEFI gauges and an Innovate AFR to put in the dash. That was terrible. If I had to do it again, I wouldn't. Im not good with electrical anyway, so doing this was already intimidating. It worked out fine for the most part. The gauges work nice.
