Nice man cant wait. Was this the one from diesel x? Either way its going to be sick. I have a single turbo kit that was supposed to go on my sedan o3, but bills are tight so im trying to sell it. If im able to pay my current bills without selling the kit, its going on that bad boy.

Yep it's the same kit digital1986 used to own, and most recently, DieselX.

Congrats. Is that a GT30? What are your power goals? The X is definitely a good application for the remote mount setup. I've yet to see an AWD setup with built motor and big turbo but having that kind of traction with BIG power (GT37) would be fantastic.

There is a X with a twin turbo set up pushing 430 to the wheels.

From the pictures it looks to be a T4 57 or 60 trim ( both a nearly identical anyways ). Way to small for any serious power but it definitely won't be a slouch. Should be able to push 375-425whp at most.

Correct you have to account for 15-20% parasitic loss due to AT and AWD

It's probably more like 25%-30%. A regular RWD Auto would loose 20%-22% and a 6MT about 15%-18%

STS uses 60 trim. You are right about the power range but STS only intended this for stock motor anyways.

OP,
Good luck... You can always visit the STS thread in my350z if you have questions.
