Z1 Motorsports: AAM TT Kit Installed & Evaluated

John@Z1 · 02-10-2015, 11:13 AM

As most have seen we were able to get our hands on the first AAM TT kit released to the public to install on a 2010 6MT 370Z. The AAM kit uses twin BorgWarner EFR 6758 turbos which packs a nice punch without sacrificing spool.

The TT kit was chosen for a couple of different reasons. One reason being the client wanted a turbo kit that was readily available through Z1 Motorsports. We only had a couple of choices, so we called Max at AAM and talked him into setting us up with the first kit available after showing us a few numbers from some of the vehicles tuned at AAM.

With the numbers discussed the client was a go. We selected the tuner kit as we had already tuned the vehicle before via Uprev. I will say it took longer than it should to receive it due to the kit being delivered to the wrong address and our former client not wanting to let go of what he didn't purchase. This was taken care of with the help of a nice police force and Fed Ex

After we Finally received the turbo kit with the addition of CJM stage 1 fuel return kit, 1000cc inj, aeromotive 340 fuel pump and HKS boost controller. We proceeded to install. We also kept the Tomei Expreme Ti single exhaust with hopes to still hit our 530rwhp goal at 10psi. There were a couple of more hiccups through the install process but they weren't big because we called AAM and the problem was solved with ease.

After all of the hiccups were scared away we were able to hit the dyno. With Tom's engine being very healthy and not over boosted before hitting the dyno we were able to net 538rwhp with in the first 9 dyno pulls. On run 13 we were at 580rwhp at 9psi in 4th gear. At that point I decided to go through with a full 5th gear pull which pulled a very impressive 609rwhp 596 SAE with ease on 93oct fuel. All of this power is pushed through a Z1 clutch and flywheel combo w/Z1 CSC Elemination Kit!

After the dyno I called Tom and gave him the results and we both agreed to stop at the power level we were at and just clean up the throttle response and drive ability of the tune.

For you that haven't had the chance to experience the response of the turbos you don't know what you're missing.

We would like to thank Paula, Marken, Max, Mike and the rest of the AAM team for all of the help with retrieval and questions.
