As you can see in the title, this thread is going to be all about the new single turbo kit offered by Boosted Performance.

A bit of history first. Cars and performance have been a part of my life for a very long time, and I can attribute the fabrication part of it to a summer job I had a long time ago. This is where I discovered tig welding, and the fact that I have a knack for it, so the transition was easy. About 4 years ago I bought my first 350z, and right away the bug bit, and bit hard. Although I enjoyed the performance, boost was inevitable. After spending a lot of time looking at all the options, I decided it would be best for me to build my own kit.

With the build, I started posting on the forums, and before you know it a lot of other people liked the idea of putting the turbo behind the transmission vs. in the (hot /tight) engine bay. With this I started getting PM’s from other forum members, asking if I could build a kit just like it for them. I thought about it for a bit, and decided…why not. So I started my own business and called it Boosted Performance. It is run out of my own shop, on my own property as a home business. It is not big, and I am the one person that does the fabrication and support. So far I have built and sold 25 complete mid mount turbo kits, and have 25 very happy customers. I take pride in my work, and the support I offer with the kit. There are people on this site that can attest to that, and I am sure it will get mentioned at some point.

This mid-mount kit has been around for about two years, and I have customers running this system on stock block 380whp to fully built engine producing 650whp+. That kit offers a lot of versatility, with turbos ranging from 62mm all the way up to 76mm.

Couple of pictures of that setup:

I have recently been presented with the opportunity to develop a single turbo kit for the 370z, and this project is now underway.

This will be a complete bolt on kit, with minimal modifications made to the car. The idea is to build a kit that can be installed by anybody with some basic knowledge and mechanical amplitude. As with the mid-mount kit, I hope to have most of my customers do the install themselves. The most difficult part of the install may be the removal of OEM catalytic converters..and let’s face it that is a rather easy task.

The kit will consist of the best components on the market, and will include:

Precision T4 6266 CEA billet turbo (or the 6766 CEA billet turbo as an option)
Tial Q BOV’s
Tial MV-S wastegates
Large vertical flow intercooler 25"x9"x3.5" core capable of 1950cfm of flow
Exa scavenge pump
Uprev Osiris tuner
340lph fuel pump
750cc Bosch EV14 Plug’n play fuel injectors
Complete oil cooler kit (since it is needed on these cars anyway)
All 304 stainless exhaust, tig welded and back purged
Tig welded aluminum intercooler piping
All brackets (pump, fmic…ect) will be 304 stainless
3-ply silicone couplers
Stainless T-bolt clamps


This will also be a true twin scroll setup, where the firing order (pulses) of the VQ will be utilized. This is the ideal single turbo configuration, and the most efficient one. It also offeres the large T4 turbine to breathe, up to 1.32 a/r turbines. Testing on the 350z shows that if you want to go big on power, a small turbine can be a restriction. Sure the turbo (compressor) can make 700hp, but if you have a small turbine...you will not come even close to that.

I have recently built the first kit twin scroll turbo kit for a 350z, and here is how it turned out:

The kit/design for the 370z will be the same, with simmilar pipe routing.

The car is currently on the lift, and I am about to install the intercooler. This thread will be updated, and have a lot of pictures posted.

Sasha@ Boosted Performance

First one in!

In for more updates!

A well-thought out system + quality build + clear post = Smart opportunity.

Props for this. I'll be watching your successes.

Coop

So lucky to be in the same city! :excited:

I see you finally put the pics up on the FI section, props on the build, I do wonder if this will fit on a AT or not considering the piping is all around the trans area.

Idea on cost?

I'm interested!

Looking forward to seeing results. How does the piping going across the tranny affect ground clearance in the area? Hard to tell from the photos.

I'm sure most of the local guys have figured out that my car is on Sasha's lift. Like many of you, I had never heard of BP before, but after talking with Sasha and many of his happy customers on my350z I had no issues leaving my car with him.

His customer service is top notch. My car has been with him for only a day and I am already receiving updates and photos of progress. I should also point out that he is in it for the customer. I told him to do what it takes to get it done and even after saying that he has not ordered anything extra ect... After hearing some of the other horror stories on the forms of people's cars getting neglected after they paid, it was refreshing to hear him say that. Alot of his current customers pointed out to me that his customer service does not stop after you have received/installed the kit too.

I can't say enough good things about BP. I can't wait for this build to be finished!

Ps I know Sasha has lots of great connections with vendors, some on this site. I hope they chime in on this thread too!

That's what I was wondering to ? Thats where my car always scrapes when I do bottom out

Sasha has previously stated that the clearance will be ~ same as stock. Never had issues with his previous builds.

This kit will be bad no joke I have a friend with a BP kit on his 350z. I wish it was out now I would order one,I do have a friend with a G37 that can sure use this.

The parts that are listed are top very good the pump injectors and turbo choices are all great.

I cant wait to see the results.

Awesome can't wait for results . Could be an option for me in the near future :)

Your in good hand's :tup:

subbed. this will be on my car in the next year.

Thanks for the support guys.


It is hard to say at the moment. The parts used are top notch, and the quality of the entire kit will be a lot better than what is out there now. For example, this is the pumps used to take the oil from the turbo back to the engine:


Exa-Pump®

As you can see, it is a $400 item. Not a cheap pump I see other using for this purpose.

The standard injectors are larger than what competition is using, as is the fuel pump. All the exhaust piping is 304 stinless, not coated mild steel. Same goes for the intercooler piping, as it is all tig welded 2mm aluminum, and not the paper thin stuff I have seen out there.

The kit is built so that you don't really have to upgrade anything if you decide to build the engine down the road.

All of these things need to be taken in to consideration.





The pipig is only 2" diameter, so it will not be a problem at all, and this will not work on the A/T cars.

Ha .. If this will retro on the G I'm in ...

Been following Boosted Z for awhile now, if you live up North and want F.I. you'd be crazy not to look him up or at the very least consider it an option. Excellent welds and overall knowledge of the VQ platform and turbo charged race karz! Good luck w/ the build! Someone's getting hooked up!

^^^Yup, I have put down a couple of nice beads here and there :)

This was on a few custom PS reservoirs that I built a while back:

http://i137.photobucket.com/albums/q...n/IMG_6726.jpg

I will be following this build as well, F.I. is the only way I am going to be happy and get the performance level I am used to in my DD.

I am pretty lucky that RT Tuning is right around the corner from me I just need to find the right F.I. solution and I will be good to go.

This looks nice. Sasha at BP is a stand up guy and Ive followed lots of his builds from the 350z platform. I have never heard a single bad thing about him.

My main concern or question would be, how would the clearance be on the piping for cars lowered or slammed?

read this post: Sasha's response to clearance issues.....

http://www.the370z.com/canada/14654-...ml#post1541992

well... this might have just made the list :tup:

Ive been fighting with either a single or a supercharger the more i see your kits the more i like them... :driving:

subbedddddd

agreed! You may have me as well, pretty simple install it looks... once again looks really good!

I'm soooooo in ready for pricing and some more info!!!

I should also mention that this kit will work with the OEM exhaust system, and the down pipe will bolt up to the flange just before the OEM exhaust splits in to two.

Since my customer has a F.I exhaust, this kit will have a down pipe option which will make it compatible with the F.I exhaust system for maximum performance.

Sweet! Cant wait as well for more pics and info on this kit. Def sub'd :tup:

If you want info. just ask. The kit is already built in my head, and I know how it will all go together.

Should also have some pics up later on tonight.

As it sits now:

Test pipes will be absolete. (Think I spelled that right)

Hey James! Your car is nekid! lol

BP sharing the magic with the 370z community...

Got home from work (day job), and went straight to the shop to see how the FMIC bracket will fit...I like it:

http://i137.photobucket.com/albums/q...d/IMG_6973.jpg

http://i137.photobucket.com/albums/q...d/IMG_6974.jpg


The top of the bracket will have to be cust down about one inch, but that is quick and easy. Looks like the charge piping to the TB's will work out great as well.





HELLO:

http://i137.photobucket.com/albums/q...d/IMG_6976.jpg

The charge pipe will come from the outside, just above the front left lower control arm, middle of the pic, where light is visible:

http://i137.photobucket.com/albums/q...d/IMG_6970.jpg

Turbo to IC piping will be 2.5".




FOR THOSE OF YOU WITH STILLEN CAI's check your lines on the driver side:

http://i137.photobucket.com/albums/q...d/IMG_6951.jpg

You can see how worn those are, and this could be a problem if left alone.

Been waiting for this since the last attempt at S/C purchase. Sorry GTM!

trying to picture where the kit will bolt up to... so it's going to be replacing cats/test pipes and bolting straight up to the headers/manifold, then connecting to the stock y-pipe?

Good problem solver if you were worried about your cats failing and messing up the turbo

Sub'd

Think I found something that I like :)
Diy on this kit seems much better and I won't have to drop the motor.

Yeah the only other thing I would worry about is the oil pump failing. Boosted is there gonna be option for gauges with the kit? I would want Boost, A/F ratio, and can you put a gauge on the outlet of the oil pump to make sure your feeding the turbo?

Correct, it will replace the cats/test pipes and the OEM Y-pipe. The down pipe will bolt up to where the outlet of the OEM Y-pipe used to bolt up to the rest of the exhaust, after the transmission.


These oil pumps are superior to all others on the market. They are rated for 10,000 hours life, have a ball bearing continuous duty motor, stainless gear housing, viton seals, and brass gears. These are built for this application, and you will find many STS customers upgrading to these. This is the only pump I would ever use, and have used on my car for 3 years now with about 20,0000miles. The pump does not feed the turbo, the engine does. The pumps purpose is to take the oil from the turbo back to the oil pan.

There will be no gauges with the kit. There is just too many options out there, and one set may not suite all customers....so it is best left for the customer to pick the best brand/type.
