Power to weight. That 350z would smoke you from 60 to 120.

congratulations... you kicked a fat pig with a slush box. I'm about as impressed that my n/a miata can stomp a V6 auto mustang.

I'm sure it will be faster when he gets his tuning sorted.. The Dp should be upgraded per comments 2.5 or better + tuning then you can talk about smokin cars :-)

mtncrvr 10-02-2007 09:18 PM

He's at least got the right tires (Azenis I spot there) ;-)

UrbanSoot 10-02-2007 11:09 PM

yeah, rear ones are gone under 1500 miles :)
talk about aggressive driving...

beh, i only drove my miata for less then 3500 miles since i got it almost a year ago...

Hey! You get tire mileage like me!

And I'm still really interested in how this kit turns out, and if you end up retailing it for a good price. Bring on the dyno numbers.

Does it feel a lot faster than it was NA? Like, a LOT? Or just quicker than it was so far?

Oh and zoidberg ftw.

UrbanSoot 10-03-2007 02:22 AM

its faster then with jrsc - thats for sure

magnamx-5 10-03-2007 12:24 PM

Well Urban are you glad you forsaked the m45 for now anyway?

UrbanSoot 10-03-2007 12:33 PM

hell yeah! turbo is so much fun and finally - no belts!!!!! i shredded 3 belts with my m45 :/

UrbanSoot 10-03-2007 07:24 PM

i just realized that i have 6 stickers on my car and that just HAS to be another 20whp at least!

UrbanSoot 01-10-2008 12:50 PM

ok, paul bought this turbo kit from me and he claims that turbo is in fact NOT A GT2554R

just wanted to give everyone a heads up so you dont end up buying it from them.

Zabac 01-10-2008 04:03 PM

then what is it if not a 2554?

UrbanSoot 01-10-2008 04:25 PM

maybe t20? i dont know... anyways, i opened a complaint with BBB against turbo specialties for a full refund.

magnamx-5 01-10-2008 06:48 PM

So you are jockeying for a refund on a product you used to try to sell to us? Am i the only person who thinks this is weird?

UrbanSoot 01-10-2008 08:40 PM

well, i didnt know it wasnt gt2554r :/
