Fantastic numbers

ME NEXT

Think they look ok on my Z

Hi

Captint I was not taking it as a snip mate. I was just curious on why you thought this. I do agree that the plenum and zorst will help but I fill it is not essential.

The way I see things is that the kit fitted by G-Force & WRC are the same kit. The only difference would be the mapping and I know from past experience this is what can make or break an engine.

The WRC cars are mapped to a realistic and safe level and not just chasing head line BHP as I fill the G-Force car did.

This is just my thought

Hi all

Just like to point out one or two thing. I do not have a plenum and the car is fine without it at the power level that WRC set the cars at. It is NOT an essential item at this power level. As for the exhaust Flirt (correct me if I am wrong) dose not have a standard system on his car. Even if this was the case as long as the mapping is done correctly this should not be a huge problem and can be mapped around. Both item mention here do and will help the engine breath a lot bet so there fore be more efficient and help the boost to be turned down to an even safer level.

It would not be in WRC interest to sell and fit this package it they did not fill it was safe to do so. I have now covered over 7K with this fitted and mapped correctly and all is fine as I think Flirt & Captint will hopeful confirm after there test drive in my car.

Just one other thing Captint just curious why you think it is a bad move ?

You have PM flirt

Hi

Yep I have a TT set up and had it fitted and mapped by WRC.

They will map the car for 400bhp 400ftlbs. At this level I have run the car for a total off 6k now and all is running fine and dandy. I would recommend WRC as they have now done 5 off APS TT kits now. If you are interested give them a call and talk to Alan or Chris they will sort you out.

This kit transforms the car and is a real hoot to drive. If you have a questions please fill free to pm me.

Thanks

Mark

This if from Giles him self

Torque 430FtLb @ 4100rpm

Boost peaking @ 0.585bar / 8.5psi

The car that have blown are the G-Force car. That car had the exhaust fitted. Giles,s car went pop as well. What is the common denominator here G-Froce.

Yep the tune (map) off the car is important. But not just important it is the most important thing on the system. A bad map will destroy an engine quicker than anything else. I fill this is where G-Force fell on it’s ass big time as they did not have any one who could map a car correctly.

I am not get into a argument about WRC as every one will have there own opinion and experience on them.

All I will say is that if you was not happy with them try talking to them instead off going on to an open forum and complaining as this will get you know where with the problems you are having.

Hi

Yep the car is running a treat thanks. I had the test pipes fitted when I had the kit fitted. Every time I go out in it I like a cat. If you like the car as standard then you will love the BHP & lbs you get with this kit.

I would like to add my two pence worth to this exhaust issue that is going on at the moment. Yes it dose help the thermal loading but as long as the mapping is done correct on the system you are running then all should be fine. I have had 4 previous modified turbo charged car (RS Turbo, GTI R , MR2 Turbo, Impreza) along with a (Honda Integra). As I said I modified them all exhaust and ECU. All the car listed I have fitted a ECU and had them mapped to the exhaust I was using. In the case off the GTI R and the Impreza I changed the exhaust system 3 times on each car. Each time the car had to be remapped for the system I was running. What I am trying to say in short is the mapping has to reflect the modification done (or not done) to the car. If you are going to push the car to the limits off what the engine can handle and not take in to account the modifications in to the map then there will be only one out come (good bye engine). Chris at WRC who dose all the mapping is very experience and will map on the safe side. The standard engine can handle 400bhp no problem but when you start to push things to more than that and do not have a very good map then the inevitable will happen. All the car I have modified I have never had a engine let go on me. In my opinion a well mapped ECU taking in to account the modification done and not running the car to the maximum it can take is why I fill i have yet to have a engine failure.

All off the above is from my experience as a turbo nut. I am no stranger to modified car as the list below shows

RS Turbo 240Bhp

GTIR 280Bhp

Mr2 Turbo 300Bhp

Impreza 290Bhp

Integra 230Bhp

Hi

Don’t really need one. Just take it easy for the first mile or so until it nice and hot. When you are coming to a stop just take it easy for the last mile or so and all should be fine.

This is my 4th turbo car I have had and never had a timer on any off them and all have been fine

And yes it will interferer with the alarm

Headbanger you have PM

Hello headbanger

I cant say that I have experienced it but as to yet I have not had the traction control off. It has cut it once or twice but that has only been in the wet.

All in all when you get 400 plus bhp:teeth: going thought the rear tyres it is all ways going to be a bit off fun. I have also noticed that the rest off the car is well up for the extra power. The brakes are fine and the chasse and suspension is more than capable.

Where in Essex are you ?

This is the second car they have done for me. My first car was as Subaru Impreza. I done over 40k and it was spot on. This is why I went back to them. I have all ways found them to be very knowledgeable and will to explain it in simple terms so you can understand.

As I said give them a call speak to Alan.

Just had my car done at

http://www.wrc-tech.co.uk/350Z_twin-turbo.htm

give them a call and have a chat to Alan

APS TT

I will post some pics the weekend when it is clean.

As for WRC as I said this is the second car they have extensively modified for me both times I have found them to be superb in work, results and knowledge. My previous car ran flawlessly for many many miles. Witch is one off the reasons I used then againe

Yep i know Minel. i was going by how much i put in the tank to get home and there was not a big difrence. WRC silverstone me Colchester so a bit off a run.

but as i said that depend on how the car is driven.

if it is driven all the time then 3.5lt twin turbo will drink like a fish

Have a look at there web site for pricing or call and talk to Al and have a chat about SC.

The Mpg is running about the same if not a bit better because the map is for the car not an off the shelf one fits all.

But that depend on how the car is driven. On a normal run there is not much in it to be honest.

Hi All

Don’t know is this is the correct section to post this (please move if it isn’t)

I would just like to say a big thanks to WRC Technologies

http://www.wrc-tech.co.uk/

They have done a full APS Twin Turbo conversion on my car and I must say what a difference. The Z now runs smother, faster, idles better than ever.

Any one thinking of doing the APS TT thing I would hole heartedly recommend it. The kit transforms the car in to a car Nissan should have built in the first place.

As ever WRC Tech did a good job. This is the second car they have done off mine. If any off you are thinking off using WRC again I highly recommend them. Good work, price, service, and knowledge and excellent facilities.

Once again big thank Alan (Big Al), Chris (Mapping Guru) and Jamey (The technician)
