Nah I have faith in him on this one. I think he’ll go FI. But…this is just the first of many speed bumps, rabbit hole goes deep.

Sebastian @specialtyZ prays to the FI TT gods, has all the info.

So much so that I'm here in Texas and i'm really heavily considering shipping my car to him in Cali for install and tune when the time comes.

He did the install of my kit. He's done so many of them that he would prefer to do the install, especially if he's doing the tune (which of course he should be). My install is so clean and I and Seb know it was done correctly.

if XRP goes to the moon, I'll gladly send my Z over to Seb to get done. Haha

Depending on your HP goals, either of their stages are solid. There is also a Stage 2.5 aka "Stage Seb" which is I believe is about the size of 2x GT30 turbos if you need to make 700hp with ease.........

Just buy the FI fuel kit. Guys are making 700whp on it with no fuel return....

What else? I'd go do some research. That's a long list, and specific to what you want/need... I would say an easily overlooked item is the FI crash bar. Definitely get one or your intercooler becomes your 5mph "foam padding" and thats an expensive replacement IMO......

Fuel return: Depends on your goals....

Catch can: You aren't running one yet? No seriously..... Even NA I'm running 2... The blowback is for real on VQ engines...

The crankshaft isn't your limiting factor. I believe it can do up to or over 1,000whp...Your connecting rods however.... Stick around 480wtq or less and you'll be fine assuming the motor is healthy. So, before you spend the $20k+ do a compression and leakdown test. If all is solid, then spend the $$$

So I dont need fuel return, what is a catch can really do? do I have to have it?

Cupcakez I think it was. We tried to lead him in the right direction but he refused to listen. Wrecked his car. Blew 2 motors. Ended up selling the car. He sunk himself in debt. Classic train wreck.

Two-fold reasons:

FI has proven over and over and over again that it's that good, from fitment to pre and post sale customer services.

AAM has proven itself to be the opposite.

Factual, not emotional.

AAM took pre-production deposits from members of this forum in good faith and subsequently used them to R&D a product that never made it to production. A number of those members never got a refund. So yeah. I have a problem with AAM.

I bought 3 inch dual exhaust from AAM, they send me the exhaust in different size, left is shorter than the right, and they don’t respond my email, so I don’t really trust them lol, but I still like the quality and get another pair of test pipe and HFC

So let me get this straight...

AAM can't build a basic exhaust correctly
AAM has terrible customer service
You don't trust them

But you still like the quality?!?

That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard. Except maybe for this...

Probably because the exhaust was shiny, double as a mirror. In which case, any ebay exhaust would do the same.

I know he ain't evaluating the welds or metallurgy.

Mismatch parts on an exhaust shipment then ignore email...can you imagine wanting to buy a TT kit from them...? haha
