I don't think you'll have issues it's the same as a TT kit (fast intentions, GTM etc) besides the fact you'll have to do the research and development for the kit yourself which will be challenging. If you know what your doing then go for it! The 370z wasn't turbo'd from the factory obviously, but that doesn't mean it can't be turbo'd without making it unrealiable. The compression ratio for the vq37 is a bit high for boost, but if you get a good fuel setup, maf location in the right place, and a large intercooler you will be just as reliable as any TT kit on the market. Just don't go over board with the power. I've seen videos of the vq37 making 700whp on e85 (don't even think you could make that much power with GTR turbos) but for a daily driver just keep power levels on the lower end. I'll be keeping a eye on this one!

Good Luck
