Nothing solid yet...they are still pricing it what it costs for the fuel return system they are doing... Stage 1 will get you in the 365-380 WHP range at 8 PSI...9 PSI will get you in the 390s

stage 1 @9 psi and around 390-395whp, that's good enough, i use my black 4door steed daily.......reliability is a major concern especially w/stock internals..........from what i've read, an install was succesfully completed on an 03 6mt sedan, but now mandates 93 octane due to using the coupe's ecu flash........hope all goes good with this sedan a few more months down the road as that's when my $$$ will be available........and maybe they flash to accomdate 91octane.

edit: isn't the psi preset from T/netics at 8psi?

Yes it is but boost can be increased via a manual or electronic boost controller... I would get Stage 1 and run it at 8 PSI and then get Stage 1.5 later or just get Stage 1.5 from the start though if you want to play with tune and boost.

I had a leak on the intercooler pipe.. Right on top.. I replaced the clamps that came with the Turbonetics kit with different ones.. Those nut/bolt ones were annoying!!

Also I have a feeling I might have a Vacuum leak.. When I get on it hard in 2nd and let off while slamming in the clutch, the car wants to stall or does stall.. <--- what happens when you are running a light flywheel and turbo yikes.

I hit 10.2 psi the other night... It was about 20 degrees out hehe.
Yesterday's spirited driving with some friends came out to peaking at 9.5.. and as rich as 10.0 a/f

god damn i hate you that looks pimp. Do you think the tubing and etc is still visible on the nismo bumper w/ the MESH on the grill area? it seems like you too k it off but i think the bumper looks better w/ it on. ANd my god, you need to repaint that sucker and put a clear bra lol. Can you tell me where you got the kit and where u got it installed abd how much? If you want, u can PM me. I'm probably going to go this route but i'm trying to find as many reasons as i can to not (to save money) so if you can provide me with any, shoot away!

yes its the stage one kit brand new, the warranty is transferrable since its a turbonetics product. you don't need to register the product. i'm gonna need money to travel and i want my car to last me another 6-7yrs.
