CJM 370z had boost envy, problem solved...

Cant say yet, it still has not arrived. I actually notified them on Monday that I will have to bail out until availability improves if I dont have a tracking number by the weekend. After the MHI thing here (which I only witnessed, was not a buyer of course), leaving almost $8000 of my money in a holding pattern doesnt sit well with me. I will just put the money into my Z for now until they can handle the orders.

As I mentioned in another thread... we have finished our passenger side exhaust manifold design/jig/layout and my welder can build them at will now. Well... the wastegate isnt on there yet, but that is going to be like the final touch since we have a lot of freedom on placement with it.

We are still working on the drivers side, which is much tighter due to the steering shaft. We are trying our best to limit how much modification is required to the driver side motor mount. But these are some awfully large turbos we are putting in my car right now. Sometimes I consider selling them and going down a step, but for the manifolds; the show most go on. I want our CJM manifolds to be capable of putting these monsters on the side of the engine... for if they do not, there isnt a whole lot of point in them existing!

So we will keep fitting the beasts, and then test fit with smaller stuff later.

Here is a really dark and terrible shot of the passenger manifold installed. It has gobs of clearance and turned out great.

We had a funny thought of taking a break with my car, and just putting the single GTX3582R on the passenger side there... make a crossover tube and run it as a single turbo for a little while LOL. That turbo would be able to make the same power my twin Greddy kit was at anyway, and then I could get back to the track and work on bettering that 6MT 1/4 record!!!

Do it

single turbo development and twin at the same time man! more and more options for the masses!!

Small company here, I have to choose wisely what we produce! The single market seems like they are in good shape already. The gap in the turbo system market for the VQ I see is a set of manifolds that can put massive turbos on the side of the engine! So thats where I will go... plus it wont sell like crazy, so it wont be so hard to keep up with the demand LOL.

Make sure it fits with the z1 csc elim kit!

I cant imagine even coming near that area! We are mounting the turbos right under the exhaust ports, just behind the engine mounts.
