Default First STS rear mount turbo 370Z???

Just got home from dropping my car off at Uprev in Austin and they had this beast on their dyno. Im pretty sure this is the first rear mount turbo 370Z.. correct me if im wrong. I remember seeing a thread discussing someone making a custom kit or something. As far as how much power it's making.. ill just say right now it's between 400 - 500whp and they are still tuning. Enjoy!

Nice setup. Doesn't it take longer to hit the targeted PSI with all those piping?

You also posted in the wrong section i think.

Uhm. I expect this thread to be closed very soon. Sponsor-related.

Taking a second look at it, I do not like how the pipes stick down so much.

Thanks for posting. I think it's definitely an interesting option. Would love to see some videos and then get a review from you regarding turbo lag once you've had a chance to really drive it around.

the car doesn't belong to the OP, he just saw it on the dyno when he dropped his car off

sponsor related... huh? lol.

As far as wrong section... i suppose i could have posted it in FI... didn't think about it.

I just thought it was cool because it was something a lot of Z owners have only "heard" about and not actually seen.

I think the clearance from the pipes to the ground looks less than what it actually is. The pictures are deceiving. There is actually a good amount of clearance. As much if not more than you have with an F.I. exhaust i would assume.

Need a dyno graph showing boost and where its max is at in the RPM range.
