Sasha - how long do you keep the piping to build kits? Is it a one time buy in? Or in 3-6 months will you be able to make on with out the car?

I believe he will make a jig so that he can reproduce the kits without having to have a car on site.

Correct.

I am now an expert at making jigs as well. This is how the mid mount kits are built.

What I am doing now is the hard part, figuring out how thing will be routed and what will work best. Once this stage is done I can proceed to the jigs. I plan on making two kit from this car. One will of course go with the car/customer and the other I will keep. The one kit that stays behind will be used to build the jigs. That way these will all fit perfect every time, on any M/T 370z.

At this point I plan on taking your moneys..

I may have missed something here, but what will protect from water and the filter.

Thats a good point.. The intake so low to the ground..

theaudir8fan · 04-10-2012, 10:18 PM

well the GTM stage 2 SC places the filter at a very similar location, it actually stays pretty clean in that area, just don't run deep puddles.

No issues at all. Unless you are going deep sea fishing with it, there is nothing to worry about. I have had my air filter in that location for about three years now. Remember, a lot of people spray water (water/meth injection) in to the engine on purpose..

They typically try to do that after the MAF's

Not necessarily. Ideally you want to inject it before the FMIC and after with very small jets vs. one large before the TB. The best water injection setups come with 3-4 nozzles, which are placed throughout the entire cooling system.

Interesting, I have seen Z's trip MAF codes and require cleaning due to sucking up water. I suppose the atomization of the water/meth injection makes the difference?

memorylasts · 04-10-2012, 10:57 PM

Yeah ^^ what he said...

I was going to look around though and see what else I could find but at the same time this is.the same method Sasha has used on his own 350Z along with many others. It might need more cleaning then not...but it is something I am willing to do.

zguynate · 04-10-2012, 11:36 PM

Word. Even if a little does get in it has to go through the hot turbo and up through the intercooler first. Which by then any small amount of water will be vaporized. Anything more than that you need to reevaluate your driving conditions.
