Damn!
Yeah, I think we just did a 10 degree drop on all temps but left the percents similar to factory. I think going down another 10 degrees would be ideal for me.

In fairness my turbo is cooled by the oil from the block so it helps to have the fan pulling air through my oil cooler. You're SC has a contained oil system so you don't have that additional heat.

I don't know if you can with your set up but getting the oil cooler so it's not in front of the radiator really helped both run cooler. With having the turbos cooled by the engine oil that could be huge improvements in temps.

Congrats on the built! What kind of app are you running on the tablet? What information does it display? Additional mods or sensors required?

Yeah 100% at 215F

sub'd to this in case the z35 do snot meet expectations

Can anyone tell me why these upgrades were needed as well? Are these necessary/recommended for the kit to run well? Or are they a bit over overkill to be safe and cover your bases in case you want to push it further in the future?

gt-r spark plugs
Turbosmart Kompact Dual Port 25mm BOV
DeatschWerks 850cc Injectors
DeatschWerks DW300 Fuel Pump

I would say more for safety but pushing the kit further well from what i have seen here the kit is very good to 400-480whp after that the kit pretty much runs out of steam. Either you end up blowing the motor by upgrading some parts of the kit or upgrade to a turbo kit.

So you don't really need these for the kit to run well with the 9lb pulley. The maf upgrade seems like a good idea for some idling issues people have had.

I cant say for sure with the 9lb pulley but I don't believe so, I have none of that on my car but I'm on the 8lb pulley.

So I am really not knowledgeable about this stuff but it seems like at this power range (420ish whp), the upgraded injectors and fuel pump aren't really necessary. Some people have had some idling issues with this kit though (maybe due to turbulence), so maybe the maf upgrades might still be worthwhile if they address this.

The GT-R spark plugs I would highly recommend, as for the Turbosmart BOV that's just for show off sound effects :D The DeatschWerks Injectors and fuel pump is not a must but the deal I got on it I could not pass on them and thought maybe I could squeeze a E85 tune from them in the future.

Just the spark plugs are needed, HKS make some as well, I'm running those in mine. otherwise I'm running the standard stillen kit apart from the frozenboost heat exchanger and with the 9lb pulley.
