Thumbs up *Breaking News* Twin-Turbo 350Z....!!!

We (350Z Board) have been following the guys at 'ULTIMATE RACING' and their upcoming Twin-Turbo pckg for our beloved 350Z! Here are pics as of today TODAY... Nearing completion. They would be 1 of 3 actual Turbo Kits available.....With 3 more scheduled for completion by Summer! With 6 Turbo Kits and 3 Super-Charger kits on hand for one car...That is TRULY "Something Special Indeed".
The below kit is expected to yield 400 - 450hp........TO THE WHEELS!!!

My options keep getting harder....

We are about 70% done at this point and everything is going well. Mind you, this is the toughest turbo kit we have ever had to make. Here's what we are working with now:

- Twin Garrett T3 Turbochargers
- Twin Heavy Gauge Steel Turbo Manifolds
- Twin HKS External Wastegates w/ Stainless Dump Tubes
- Large Bar and Plate Intercooler (which retains the factory bumper reinforcement bar!)
- Equal Length Turbo Outlets joined into a Y
- Polished Stainless Steel Intercooler Piping with Beaded Ends
- Stainless Steel Radiator Coolant Pipe
- HKS Super Sequential (SSQV) Blow-Off Valve
- Ultimate Racing 440cc Fuel Injectors
- Greddy E-Manage Computer

Please Note the TWIN EQUAL LENGTH turbocharger outlets joined into one!

be patient! I know the guys at Rotary Performance here in Dallas, and they are working with Mazda on turbo and super charging options for the new Renesis.

The kits for the 350Z are outrageous! Beautifully made, and they really compliment the engine compartment!

decisions decisions for you Z/G owners!!
