SuperDave · 11-12-2013, 10:51 PM

I love it. Do it.

CB, I noticed you were on the list for getting a Boosted performancec turbo kita while back? do you have it installed? I am looking into getting one for mine and wanted to talk to you about it a little.

I had a 350z for 3.5 yrs and had a boosted performance turbo kit on it. for about 5 months and loved it. then i sold it to buy a 370 cuz of the potential of the 370 vs the 350. I have already talked to sasha about getting one, but i have to wait till next year.

i was just wondering about your kit if you went through with it or not. I loved mine, would like more feed back on yours, or if you need help with it I'd love to help if you havent gotten it installed yet

The kit ended up being delayed by close to 6 months and things changed for me financially. So i decided to take myself out of group buy also i talked to Rob at ZCar Garage and he stated that he liked the kit but had quite a few concerns as he read through the entire installation manual and part list. He stated that this kit would be more for a racing set up versus a DD or weekend rider. the kit being so low and the concerns with hitting a puddle and not being cast iron in specific spots made it a concern of his. That was another determination that caused me to drop out as well, also since its a 7k kit

Tempestz · 11-13-2013, 08:42 PM

I understand the concern, when I had mine on my 350z i had no problems with scraping or anything while being my DD and i was lowered on the twin s techs, (not a lot) but it was still some. he actually has the its for sale now for 6795. which is a great price. I highly recommend it. I loved mine. and I really want get it again, but at the same time i want to try an make a powerful NA daily. i just can't decide on which way id like to go. I would love to be a 350+whp NA obviously ill need more than bolt ons, but the results I have seen are getting very close with the momentum/Z1 headers.

Also I have never dealt with rob at Zcargarage but have heard many great things about him. would you recommend hime over the other high quality shops around here? I mainly just need a shop for tuning when the time comes, I like to do all my own work. but I'm still learning how to tune properly and this being my DD id rather pay to have it done right

NickShoelace · 11-13-2013, 11:15 PM

I'll be taking my car to Z Car Garage for a tune when the time comes. I've heard nothing but good things and because of that alone, I don't trust going anywhere else.

I would have to say Rob @ ZCar is arguably one of the best Nissan mechanics/tuners in Nor-Cal. you're safe with him.

SuperDave · 11-13-2013, 11:39 PM

Ya know, with as many of us as are going to want a tune, it might be wise to consider sharing the cost of the equipment, to have unlimited tuning ability, as opposed to all of us paying for individual tunes, possibly even multiple times. I mean, a naturally aspirated air fuel map isn't rocket science, and the computer does most of the work, just throwing it out there. Boosted tunes on the other hand, I would recommend going to a shop for...

Tempestz · 11-14-2013, 03:24 AM

that sounds something like a Flash. its a genreal tune that they use to adjust afr based on your mods. Have you guys been seeing the resluts on the Z1 headers for the 350zDE when used on the 370? its really interesting. they bolt right up when used with the 350zDE testpipes/high flow cats. and results are much better than headers made for the 370z
