you can use it to weigh down the trunk when you need extra traction with snow tires. Otherwise, its useless for a non-diesel application.

If you want to play with turbos I suggest selling the Z for an Evo or STI. Otherwise do a lot of reading and educate yourself. Intertubes is full of good information if you are spend some time.

if u wanna spend about $7k and buy the rest of the components u need then i dont see why not. would spool late, and not give much useable power on the street.

in other words, just buy a pre-fabbed kit unless u are a welding/tunng wizard
