This was more a discussion of size. The ball bearing design of newer turbos is marginally better, but the 20Gs are proven and potent. The difference in bearings isn't so great as to make up a significant difference in turbo size.

I have had HKS turbos and Garrett turbos but not had Greddy turbos yet so I can only speak on specs. I hear they are really nice turbos and they can make a ton of power, but makeing power is only half the battle "for me".

Any more word on this kit or any idea when the call would be made?

No kidding. This went real quiet. Seems like they aren't going to release the kit for the 370Z.

Dont think so either. Plus no one wants a setup kit, HKS is infamous for not releasing full kits.
