I am installing a turbonetics kit on a 06 5at. has anyone ever put this kit on a 06 g? did you run into fitment issues? one bit fitment issue i have is that the turbo is hitting the radiator and i cant fully bolt up the exhaust housing. any help or advice from people have successfully installed this kit on a 06 would be great.

 

never have but curious how it turns out gl

 

yes you need spacers to lift the engine and you also need to have the uppipe remade. its a pain in the ***!

 

Got the turbo in and most of the ic pipes. Now only if the exhaust would bolt up to the turbo

 

I wouldn't expect many favours from this kit... From what I'm learning over in 350z a lego kit and a dozen hamsters ground into fine powder and lit on fire are better power adders...

But then again I'm positive you wouldn't have taken on this project unless you'd fully researched the kit?

 

alot of people talk smack about the kit. im enjoying mine. but i not a power junkie.. yet... its prob not good for huge gains, but im happy with my 340 whp for now. im playing it safe with 5 lbs of boost.

 

I have heard they have fitment issues on the 03-05 cars as well and if you do manage to get it fit eventually the pipes with the mounting tabs break because it just dosent quite fit right. On my350z more guys have used it so try doing some research over there, you might find more answers

 

To me it seems like when you get one part in another has fitment issues. Whats more frustrating is im gettin so close but yet im gettin held back by something small. I have done a bit of research on this kit but didnt think I would have issues with it goin on a 06. Im also not looking to make crazy amout of power with it either. Just needed a extra bit of power to pull me out of the corners

 

I have Turbonetics Kit...Don't let anyone hate on ya man. There are a couple issues with the kit itself. IE...x-over pipe, flow, weird fan crap on IC, but for the most part my car has been rock solid since Boosting her up... Car made 413 TQ and 387 HP on a mustang dyno.... over 30k boosted now. Course i did not do self install, but the shop didn't mention anything about spacers or raising motor up etc. Just said was a snug fit..

 

Cool thanks for the info

 

I give up. Car is goin back to n/a and kit is goin up for sale

 

For real or is this just one of those frustrating moments? I haven't seen anything good about this kit ANYWHERE. Yeah. Some random guys come in and say it's meh... But I know in my mental notes if I have learned anything about kits: Godspeed And this tn kit are garbage.

Hope whichever path you take works out.

 

Don't let it win the amount of crap I have delta with on my car I turned it me vs it and I won't let it win. Once you get it on it will be all worth while.

 

Just have some pieces custom fabricated to make everything fit. Its only the exhaust that has fitment issues, right?

 

Yup the down pipe and o2 housin
