Im still fully in, waiting patiently. I really do have lots of faith that this will be a great turbo kit, but every week I swing closer to ringing them up and cancelling. I have the funds, abd I want to be turbo'd.

Ever since I bought the Z in 2011 I had plans to go forced induction.
My end goal was to have install/tune done by March 2014. I slowly picked up all the supporting mods through out year 2012 and early 2013 (nice parts pile accumulating in multple closets) I purchased the gtm kit July 2013. If it gets delivered my March then everything will be right on schedule. |

I'm still in the process of figuring waht's essential to support this kit (more specifically the due MHI kit). As far as I understood it lacks an oil cooler but ought to be safe for a stock Z? Cheers Last edited by V1H; 01-06-2014 at 02:43 PM. |

Ah yes sure, common sense, even to me Thx m8
The choice of exhaust is still my greatest cause for headache. Naturally I'd want a 3" catback to maximize turbo efficiency, which I only know the Greddy Turbo Ti-C has. But I don't like its sound. In fact, I haven't yet found a single Z exhaust with the right noise. I've been heavily pampered by ferocious VTEC screams of my nitrous battered Stage2 3/4 Race motor and look for a good race noise for my Z. But working on a £3k Honda is a different matter. I wanna leave my Z engine untouched. And test pipes are no option towards that goal. I got to be able to pass M.O.T. of course. Last edited by V1H; 01-07-2014 at 06:01 AM. |

I tossed around the idea of running full 3" turbo back, but it being my primary car, i dont think i want all the noise associated. was very close to pulling the trigger on the fast intentions exhaust. I have since sold the gtm downpipes and have the z1 testpipes and will run oem nismo catback. Should be sufficient. Dont plan on running more then 7psi with stg 1 gt28's on stock block. |

Would be interesting to 'hear' the 3" F.I. exhaust. It's non-resonated? Though, I only find the 2.5" TDX catback on their web page with a video of the (very quiet) 12" resonator option. Would you consider the downpipe or test pipe to make more noise? Don't u have emission problems with the TPs? Last edited by V1H; 01-06-2014 at 06:15 PM. |

Yep. Between the turbos and the catted 3" FI exhaust, mines pretty quiet at anything other than wot.
