For lunch. You can cook hot dogs off the exhaust manifolds. :tup:

I almost thought that was a joke then I remembered it’s a Z. Step one of fuel pump work in the G was remove the back seat.

I only had a hobbyist level of skills and installed my own TT kit... but it took forever and was a huge PITA. These kits require a mild amount of 'figure out how to make it work' details that the manufacturer instructions dont bother describing because it's easy and obvious to experienced installers but can be challenging to amateurs. I can't speak to the AAM kit but my kit could be installed without dropping the motor so that made things easier. I also had access to a lift... I think trying to do it with the car on stands would have driven me off the deep end.

That being said - the BP kit looks like an absolute breeze to install. As bolt-on as it gets as far as turbos go for these cars.

They’re not bad; just get a little “ocd” & want to ensure everything is perfect the first time :tup:
