Does NOS count?

 

NOS is a type of FI..sure.. but we are talking bout supercharging (that includes turbo). maybe we can open another thread and talk bout NOS all day

yo GXclusive, thanks alot man.. u sure no ur stuff well APS seems like a great kit.. altho many people kept suggesting to have a built bottom when TT the VQ.. is it just if you want to go higher ps? if u stay in the stock boost, most of the FI is fine without built engine or extend tuning?
i really dont feel the stillen with the ugly hood...

i have read quite a bit about the APS ST on the Z sites (wanted a Z in the beginging..now think G is more for me ).. seems like everyone really like the ST set up..they have a ST G35 in aus as the APS test mule i guess (i think thats where APS is made right..australia ??). saw a vid of it, looks awsome!! cant wait to get more info once its in the market.

how does the Vortech (assuming a more popular application with most G owners) stack up against APS (TT and ST)? like i have mentioned, seems like the Z owners like turbos more than SC.. and G is the opposite ..hmm.. whats the reason?

can anyone suggest some price, performace, reliability #'s on these two kits? thanks

 

Actually, there's no debate. If you want more power while retaining your stock internals, go SC. If you want more power and lots of torque, go TT but build your motor up.

 

Is NOS consider FI? I didn't think so since FORCED induction menas you're cramming air down the motors throat. NOS simply changes the molecular structure of the air, increasing it's oxygen and cooling the air charge, thus increasing power.

Regarding the power, on average, most Vortech owners are ranging from 365rwhp to 415rwhp and 295lbft to 335lbft depending on other mods. I can't speak for the dark, eerr ummm I mean TT side.

 

omg they said the "nos" word,


HEAD FOR THE HILL A FLAMESTORM IS COMING!!!!!!!!!!

 

I'm gunna vote for Stillen tho, at least for newbs or people who dont want to dump all that money for it. A new hood Plus being able to add it to a bone-stock G. Yeah stillens got my vote

 

E-Manage is Crap..........

 

I like what Stillen offers, but I'd rather not have to swap out my hood.

 

NOS is a form/brand of nitrous

 

we know NOS is a brand of nitrous..but it just SOUNDS cooler to call it NOS..lol...
why would people flame it ..its just for fun and we all know what we are talking bout..

i havent heard too much bout stillen, but seems like Vortech and Greddy are the most common (now comes APS..i think its gonna beat out alotta other turbo systems (be it TT or ST).
im in no rush to get one anyways.. jsut want to see whats out there, gather more information and weigh my options..
also wait till there are more proven track and reliability records, b4 i jump into things. altho for now, Vortech sounds like the way to go for SC and APS is the best choice for turbos!!

for those Vortech owerns, is Vortech a plug and play system? are there extensive tuning required? any more mods than whats in the box? my worst fear is BLOWing something up.
what are the things that one should look out for? thanks guys!

does anyone have APS TT set up on their car? please share ur thoughts/experience. thanks.

and for those "others".. is it mostly Stillen SC? any thoughts on that?

 

oh, and a important question!!

do all those listed FI work the same on the 05s? most i saw were said to be for 03 and 04 (like Vortech..which has two setups for 03 and 04..).

anyone has any kinda FI on their 05s yet? maybe someone can let us know. how is it diff from the 04? does it put out more power? the new (ok, somewhat) engine with 298hp, does it help on FI ? thanks
