I wasn't aware of the forum rules.
Oh ya in response to the turbo's sound! They "SCREAM"

when they start to come on at about 3800rpm's....Literally!!! So loud....So loud...everyone around will turn there heads!!!!

Oh ya if you think I just take it down let me know! Im new to this forum stuff!!

Thanks

Dyno number at the wheels was 449. Thats still with the stock ecu! But the car isn't as loose in turns as I thought it would be... also I got the car track aligned with it sand bag'd to my weight when they did the corner balancing!!!!!

The HKS hypermax 3's are amazing! The car rides so so smooth!!!! & is pin point sharp.... Almost as sharp as a BMW, but the car feels very well balanced.
Here is a copy of the email they sent me when they balanced it!

939 / 939
737 / 731

3346 LBs dry, with me in it we were able to get it to nearly a 50/50 weight
balance on the scales and near perfect right to left.

It's still a bit heavy of a car, if he wanted to do more down the road we
could cut the interior, remove sound deading and extra crap and probably get
200-250lbs out of the car I would imagine, he'd loose his creature comforts
though, not something I'm sure he wants to do.

Aligning it in a few.

I don't get it, you got the car corner balances with your weight...but "if HE wanted to do more down the road" and "HE'd lose HIS creature comforts"????? Thought this was your car?

I think around 15k to 18k! The Greddy kit alone is 7.5K + all the little stuff that has to be replaced after taking the car apart such as tranny fluid, oil, misc items. I can scan & pm you the invoices so you have a better idea if possible!

kenbains12 · 06-11-2010, 08:55 AM

Caravanshaka- Ya sorry a bit confusing........the email was actually between the sales manager (Marty)and the tuner (Wes)! He had forwarded there conversation to me......so i had a copy of the number they had come up with when balancing was to be completed!

flashburn · 06-11-2010, 08:57 AM

Hey Ken,
Are you going to be tracking or autocrossing your car any time soon? I'd love to check it out!

Glad to hear you had a good experience though, would hate for someone to get screwed over

Just wanted to clarify something since I got a PM asking what Titan had done to me that wasn't professional. My bolded comment was directed to the posts just above which contained a link to a Dallas shop that has been banned from using this Site. I don't want anyone to think i was talking about Titan with this comment just because I forgot to link the posts I was referencing in the first place, it wouldn't be fair to them. Just wanted to clear that up real fast

Thanks for the clarification................You kinda had me worried, since I made my decision to use Titan, all my research showed they had a impeccable reputatution in the motorsport world.......Oh ya Also after seeing them on a Lambo installing turbo's which btw is to is to produce over 1300rwhp....It's a Beast of a build...whole motor was rebuilt!!!!!!!! So if a customer can trust them with his lamborghini murcielago..... I could trust them with a 30k car! lol

Yeah, Sorry about that guys....I didn't know about that rule. It's deleted now.

Very nice build... Ken actually brought the car in to Universal Nissan a few days after the build, and have to say you guys did an amazing job. I came in with chris the yesterday to see if I can get my z TT w/ GTM... just waiting on Sean to get the pricing so that I can get everything started!

Oh ok, you don't have to scan the invoices, appreciate it though!

I was thinking maybe when I pay my car off, I'd add a twin turbo, just to do it. I don't really race or anything so I probably wouldn't go through all the trouble with seats, etc. I knew the turbo's were running about 8-10k, I just wasn't sure of the other upgrades. that gives me a good idea, Thanks again!

I hope the owner ditches that emanage and goes with something appropriate for the amount of money he has into this car. The emanage has proven completely useless and UNSAFE on the vq35
