What Wideband are you thinking of getting? Get the Innovate since it is really reliable and accurate, plus most 3rd party application recognize this WB. When you have your Wideband hooked up (assuming it is Innovate), please tell your installer or if it is self install make sure to connect the Serial Out Cable to your XD-16 gauge. The serial out coming from the guage will then be connected to your laptop via Serial Port (You can buy a Serial-USB if you want USB connection).

I strongly suggest getting the UTI since this has a lot more extra than the MPS Software. UTI gives you the ability to also log your AIT and Coolant, it also give you different Warning Sound like when getting knock or Coolant Temp go above threshold, not to mention it does Auto log for you . I also strongly suggest to get the Wibedand right aways coz you don't want to drive blind and not knowing if you are running lean.

Turbo also get better after a few thousand miles, mine respond better and Sound EVEN better after 3000 miles. Happy Boosting.

I already have the PLX Wideband. It is already hooked up, just need to get a bung welded for the O2 sensor. My tuner stated the A/F is stable for right now (I need to get it hooked up soon). One of the reasons I haven’t had it hooked up (beside cash) is b/c I don't want to pay to have the O2 welded if I'm gonna get a Y-pipe and HFC.

I agree with you on the turbo sounding better and spooling better w/ more miles. I believe I have about 700 miles on this kit (not my DD). Love the sound of the turbo, open dumps, and BOV.

hey FI'ed G, do you know who's had this kit the longest and if they've run into any problems? also, i'm not too educated on the topic of

FI, but is it possible to change the BOV for one that makes more of a 'whistling' sound? i noticed in your vids

that its a different noise, i dont know how to explain it though

Ok, UTI only take Innovate, AEM UEGO and Tuner Pro, but I think MPS do recognize PLX. If you are not sure when you'll get the TP/HFC then I suggest to do it right away coz winter is coming and you don't know how Utec will compensate for the colder weather.

I'm going to Email Jeff@UTI if he can integrate PLX with UTI.

One tester has his kit for around 8 months and has over 15000 miles problem free. Hhhmm, you know TIAL is one of the best and reliable BOV out there right? but if you want that annoying whistle sound like the hks SSQV then yes you can. I know everyone has its own preference with sound

i was wondering the website address i can order this from. And one that has pics of everything that is included in the kit i got some deployment money to spend so im already positive im gonne get this kit hehe. Also is a engine rebuild necessary for this kit? im only gonne be looking to run 400rwhp or around there. I already got top secret titanium race pipes, full stillen cat back which after readying post i found out im gonna have to get rid of it hehe oh well. got a Injen CAI, and a few other engine mods was wondering if im gonna need to get anything else for this or wat not. I also got bout 58xxx miles on my car but been running nothing but redline oil every 3500miles red line diff and tranny oils was wondering if it still will be safe to run this kit with that many miles on engine. Or not.

I doubt you will get 400whp w/ this kit. There is a huge thread over on my350z about this kit. A few people are having issues w/ the kit, but I have not had anything major (knock on wood).

I don't believe the mileage should matter if you take care of your care (maintenance) and don't rag it all the time. An example (which I have stated in other treads): my roommate has a 96 Maxima w/ 236, XXX miles on it. He has not had any major problems with it. It has had a Vortech on it for about 40,000 + miles @ 10psi. He uses Mobil 1 every 3000 miles.

You can run 400whp but not on a 7-8psi, I don't think even TN and APS ST will run 400whp at 8psi. One of the original tester did ran 400whp and 410TQ but with 10psi. I will not run more than 9psi with stock motor and would stay below 400whp if I were you.

Here's a quote from MIAPLAYA with the 60-O trim

A T04E 60 trim compressor has a max flow of 50 lb/min or roughly 500 HP. The actual amount you see to the wheels will depend largely on other factors but I wouldn't expect to see much more then 450 MAX on this compressor set up. Peak pressure within the efficiency island is about 26 PSI however the 50 lb/min of max flow is found at about 20.5 PSI. Going above that won't net you anything but hot air.

By the way only one person had a problem with a kit and we still don't know why all 6 injector to stay opened. Talking about bad luck, the other person had a problem canceling his order and that is it. There is also one other person did a self install and so far his experience are all good.

CinMotorsports price is a Turn-key price meaning kit, install and tax all included, also the $5995 is for the new piping (Pipes relocated). Call STS and they will give you some pricing and options.
