i think turbo setups might exceed ur budget. vortech/stillen can be done within your budget, including all the necessary supporting mods.

btw, mill creek, i used to go there a lot. i grew up south of there, in bellevue

You can get a more exact quote from VRT but the JWT kit installed and tuned will run you a little under 10k. Mine was a little more, but I had more work done.

did that include supporting mods? i dunno i guess i'm basing my knowledge off of estimates from my350z.com forums, but people there might do extra stuff beyond what's necessary.

roneski, you have the TT kit on an auto transmission right? how do you like it?

I like the TT on the auto so far. It's been running great. I just wished that someone would hurry up and come out with some improved clutch packs so that I can up the power.

For under $10k you can get the JWT kit installed and tuned. But if you want gauges, boost controller etc. that's going to run you more.

For everyday street use I only run stock boost which puts me at about 360 RWHP. For track stuff I up it to about 8.5 pounds which puts me somewhere in the low 400s.

I got mine done by VRT. They are in the Sand Diego area. I'm not sure if any shops near you are installing the JWT kit.

I used to be a huge fan of superchargers until I saw how much trouble the belts gave people at the track. Now I think that quick (low RPM) spooling turbos are really the way to go. Turbonetics is ok, but if I absolutely had to choose something other than the JWT kit I'd probably look at APS.

Roneski,

What additional upgrades did you have done as well as the TT?

Scott at VRT recommended the JWT Clutch/Flywheel, Oil Cooler and upgraded Radiator.

I'm getting the same kit on my stock motor. Mine is a daily driver as well.
