Turbonetics on the way
OK, I finally got the turbonetics paid off. I have been reading about some of the problems. They say that the t-netics reflash ecu is good, once you start adding aftermarket parts it seem to run into problems. I need know some of the problems people are running into and how you are fixing them .So that I can avoid any problems in the furture. One thing I know, I am going to do is go to a 3" exhaust all the way back then add a HKS Titanium Tip, which i know causes problems right there. But any advice concerning BOV, Wastegates, Headers, Plenums , Engine Management and etc will be helpful. Thanks in advance.
Personal opinions are welcome weither you have a Turbonetics Turbo or not just be helpful in any way you can. Please no bashing on either of the Sinlge Turbo kits.
Self install on this one

I'm in the same boat as you. I bought 2 HKS mufflers to make a 3" exhaust. But I'm putting that on hold. I bought the Apexi WS II as a temporary exhaust for now until I get Utec and some other fuel toys.
TN has not confirmed any problems on the G kit yet. All this talk has been on the Z kit.

Congrats! I haven't gotten my kit yet, so jealous of you guys . If you live anywhere in Broward county I'd love you give you a hand with the install. What's your setup going to be besides the exhaust? and are you going to keep your headers?
...lol, just kidding, just saw u live in AL Congratz anyways!

Playa you are the truth. I can get a heads up on the install. This is awsome. Hey how do you think 440cc injectors will work. I have a return fuel system with regulator, but the fuel system kit is set up for about 360hp to 400hp i am planning on installing also. How do you think that will work before a tune. The Fuel system was pre-owned by a friend.

if you run full exhaust the car wont hold boost because since there is no backpressure on the exhaust turbine it will spin too freely. The small wastegate they provide doesnt dump enough exhaust gasses to keep the boost so low. And no, putting a tial 38mm on there wont solve the problem either. I have a customer with a Z with the kit and he had this problem when he tried to run the gate external instead of re routed, the car would boost creep uncontrolably because there wasnt enough back pressure to keep the exhaust turbine from spinning too fast.
