One question I have after having a heavy piece of raod debrie hit my bumber then go under the car and tear some things up is how do they protect the turbos and lines from something like this?

I'm going a step further then details. I sent them a very long email this morning with what I have in mind, I really hope they like it and if they do I'll make sure you see every second of it.

You guys know me, I move QUICK. I'll take my car in for a baseline tomorrow if they go for it. Keep your fingers crossed for me.

Thanks for the support as always!

I have left two messages with these people asking about the universal kit and options. No one has called me back. It has been 3 days. kinda lame if you ask me...

Its ashame because I am interested. Can't seem to get anyone to answer the damn phone. I guess they don't like money.

Oh, I got the 350z link on the STS website to work:

I tried contacting them months ago, before I dropped the car off at Vortech. Phone call and 2 emails, I got one automated response saying they didn't make a kit for the 370z and to look at the universal one. None of my specific questions were every answered. Still interested though.

I have done a lot of research on the system and it seems that a twin rear turbo for most v6 cars will not work with a rear turbo system. Seems that your car needs a lot of displacement to make twin turbos work/worth wild. I had been trying to confirm my suspicion by looking at the 350 setup but the link was broken on the website. Luckily for me I finally got it to work by adding a '_' to the end of the link. Once there my suspicions were confirmed. The 350 kit is only a single turbo. I'm pretty sure the 370 would need to be as well.

Sent them two emails, followed with two calls and left a message this morning. Hmmmmmm. Offered them my car and perhaps an even better opportunity but no response back.

Hopefully they are just that busy and we'll hear back pretty quick. Fingers still crossed...
