But then when you get on it that beast comes ALIVE, it was F#^king awsome. Thanks for the ride and going out of your way to meet up with me late as hell even though you had to get up for work in like 5 hours. xbigb4ller69z is one of the coolest guys i've met on the forum so far thanks again. It was completely worth the ten hour drive to check it out... o yeah disney so cool too.
Thank you for the compliments.... hope you had fun on your trip and the test drive lol. Perhaps, this gave you a hint to stay with a turbo setup vs a supercharger lol

can any1 confirm if he changed from FI exhaust to GtM turbo exhaust will gain more HP? like from 450 to 470? etc?
I'm running the F.I. Exhaust with the twin turbo setup. The car still made 450 whp on a Mustang dyno with this exhaust. Perhaps If I switch to GTM's, it would make more power... but believe me when I tell you that 450whp is more than enough. It's hard enough to retain traction on 4th gear. I'm going to need new tires soon! :icon18:

Just for clarification... I have the STG 1 kit.

YouTube - StreetlegalTV.com - SEMA 2010 Garrett Turbo GTX Lineup

Edit: looks like they don't make one that will work with the GTM kit :(
wow nice find!! the more im waiting the more new products are coming out!!

why your saying that it wont fit with gtm kit? didnt they said somewhere in middle of the video that you just have to remove the old Garret and put the new gtx but it should be same size...

I don't think they mentioned a GT28, smallest was GTX30. If I read this thread correctly, GTM is using GT28 turbos.

VERY jealous. Can't wait until I've got the money to do this. I'm guessing a $10K personal loan would be like $200/mo. I could swing that perhaps.

I'd aim for 450-500rwhp too.

Def worth the money... it's just fo fun! :icon18:

Maybe I missed it, but did you go with HFCs or Test Pipes?

GTM down pipes - straight to the FI CBE

So after adding 500 miles to the car, and getting everything tweaked and worked out, the car is driving like a champ. It's kinda hard to drive normal just because I love the blow off valves going off. I also love the fact the wastegates are open, which just gives the car a crazy sound specially when you're driving by someone with their windows open... their faces are priceless! lol.

So far, I haven't had any heating issues. The highest I've seen my oil temps were roughly 220... driving it hard for 15-20minutes. Right now it's pretty cool in Florida, so oil temps have been hovering around 180's. I'm currently running two oil coolers, and about 7-8 quarts of oil (0w - 50w enos oil.)

So far, I love the car! :icon18:

Sell the bolt ons and just do it... you won't regret it. This car was meant to be TT...

Makes you wonder why Nissan don't just send them over to GTM before they even hit the showroom floor.

Mans got a point - make a nice mid way between the Z and the GTR - sort of a 370ST
