Car definitely has a lot left, dyno stopped short of 7k and once those MAF bugs clear up, it should be even more kick arse

Watching this kit on the dyno is amazing. It is such a fast spooling kit, for turbo, which is wild! Then to see hp and torque flatten out so early at such high numbers is crazy!

I was seriously looking at the GTM twin kit, but this one is very tempting... seems like it would be more reliable than a TT kit...
less things to break. Or am I just being ignorant? Reliability is a big thing for me, I want it to be as reliable as a nice DD and be in the 500-550rwhp range on 93. I also really want to hear what this turbo kit sounds like on the street with load on the engine. I didn't miss a video like that somewhere in here did I?

I am sure there will be videos surfacing in the near future as there will be. There will be 7 of these kits up and running very soon. For what it's worth, the test car made 550whp at just under 10psi of boost...pump gas of course. This tune would have been a bit on the "aggressive side" for a stock block.

Sounds like the right kit for me... I like an aggressive turbo and bov sound, so I'm disappointed the turbo isn't ported,
but that's not a deal breaker. I really like the idea of keeping the car OEM... I've decided to hold off on buying the GTM TT kit until I see some videos of this turbo set up. Thank for your response man.

As for the ported turbo.....I was hoping it would work, but there is just not enough room on the 370z. The 3 bollt header flange is just too large, and hangs very low. The fact that the charge piping coming off the compressor is right there does not help either. The E compressor cover that I use fits just perfect though. On the 350z I am able to use the SP cover: On the 350z though, the charge piping is routed very different, since the starter is on the passenger side, and there is a lot of room on the drivers side (don't mind the random color couplers and the squashed air filter, this was still in the test fit stage for the very first twin scroll kit for the VQ's):

Ah yeah I see that... That makes sense.
Just how well you respond and how quickly makes me want to buy product from you. I'm excited to see a car with this set up rolling now! F.I. was my exhaust of choice in the first place, so that's good to hear as well... I've never had a setup mounted like this though... The turbo or none of the piping is gonna hang too low for dropped Z's are they?

Well unless you live on a dirt road you should be fine. My old turbos air filter (STS) was completely exposed and only had to change/clean it every other time I changed the oil.
