First off I would like to start off by saying I was very disappointed with the AEM truboost. It did not/would not hold the boost as it was supposed to. This oppinion might change pending what their customer service says, but in the time I needed it to be clutch it just was not there.

Before talking about the results, i would like to point out just how linear the hp/tq curves are as this will be somewhat important.

The hp curve was so linear that peak hp was always towards the top of RPM. So to simulate running 9psi at the top, Greg and Sebz felt it was safe to raise the boost to 12psi in the low/mid range so when the boost tapered off at the higher RPM it would be right where we wanted. Keep in mind that the results simulated were with a drop in boost pressure, not a spike ect...

With that being said after talking to Sebz and Greg, they both felt that with a working boost controller holding steady at 9psi that the car would produce the same results. We will be putting this to the test once I get the EBC situation resolved and get more dyno time. Don't know how fast this will go as I am gone for half of July, but I will work as quickly as I can.

I would like to point out that I am not saying my car is running 9psi, clearly it's up to 12, just simply stating that peak hp was at 9psi and that hopefully in the near future we will not need to crank it to 12 for those results

Again, I would like to thank Gerg and Sebz for their awesome work! I learned a ton while you guys were here and I look forward to next year (if you guys can put up with the late nights )

The FMIC weighs more than the crash bar, so it is a substantial amount of aluminium there.


Can you please move on. Everybody has gotten over it except you. I am not sure if you are going to be at a disadvantage if I lose a couple of customers....last time I checked there is only one person on the payrol here...and that is me. If it brings my business down...I guess I will just have to live with it.
1. Is there anything in the works to make this kit available for AT drivers?

What are the specific limitations that prevent it from working with the AT?

2. CS that's all...

Very impressive results James. It is too bad that the boost controller was flaky, but I guess this is the disadvantage of tuning at midnight!... No parts stores open!

Either way, the 550whp is very impressive but the 400 ft-lbs tq at 4300 rpm even more so! Great kit!

Now go buy some track wheels and get your money's worth out of this monster!

Get an HKS boost controller. I think those are generally known as the best in terms of EBCs.

Not at the time. I would need a donor car to work with in order for this to happen. This is not something I will be looking at in the near future. I now have 3 kits available between the 350z and the 370z..and it is more work than I can handle at this time.

Crossover pipe from passenger side to driver side. The A/T oil pan is massive.

Any pics of this? I haven't seen the build of this kit, forgive me. Just trying to wrap my mind around why it couldn't work...

that's what she said.....

and the "eh" is normal my one friend i talk to alot lives in canada so it grew on me lol

just sucks that mine is my DD and you are sooo far away or you could take a crack at my 7AT i want forced induction bad.

plus now more than ever that i saw a new thread last night about GTM (not stirring up problems) is releasing a 7AT transmission upgrade so whatever kit i go with i can go for bigger numbers and have a bulked up tranny to handle it all.

as i can see you got some pretty big numbers from a single mid-mount turbo. congrats on that.

Here is the quicker way:



The way it would sit on the car:





These are the only items removed from the car + crash bar (not shown):

theres pics in their build thread of this kit. decent amount too. i kinda see what he means though since our 7AT oil pan from what i understand is larger so where his crossover pipe cuts across it just wouldnt work. with some reworking of the piping kit i'm sure it is possible eventually.
