One forum member:
Engine (semi) removal on jack stands and AAM twin turbo install.

I would say the kit has been on par with others on the market though hard to know as I have not seen one in person or know anyone personally with the kit.

Many of your questions are not AAM specific but more going boost specific which I can try to help with:
-What is important? Always double the final number, this may not be relevant day 1 but things will break and it will not be cheap.
-The gauges many use: AFR, oil pressure, oil temp, boost (if going E then possibly an E gauge)
-Boost & HP are not always equal, it also has to do with your tune and potentially other bottlenecks in your system (proper exhaust, fuel, etc.)
-Clutch: You will break the OEM clutch, but additional items are flywheel & CSC (you can do Z1 replacement or just upgrade the CSC with aftermarket both have pros/cons)
-Other mods to consider are cooling & exhaust, cooling is oil, radiator (possibly fan upgrade) but also removing hot air from the engine bay with a vented hood or fender liner. Exhaust you will need to pair your exhaust & down pipes with your power requirements.

All the above is also dependent on what you want from boost and plan to do with the car. If you just want a more powerful street car you can skip some items such as a vented hood but if you want to hit the track on the weekends then what I have listed is needed plus understanding additional track requirements possibly needed.
you did just fine explaining, thank you for this information and I will be looking into those links you sent. As we know, these kits are not cheap and a huge investment for us (unless you got bunch of money to throw around) so I have been researching for months now and will continue.

I have a friend who experimented with GTR turbo kit onto his 370z and everything seems to work just fine, he needs few more upgrades but all is well so far.

thanks Budd!
