  1. There is a scientific approach. Chris Davies has calculated the effective compression ration of a 350Z with 6/6.5/7/7.5/8/8.5/9 psi of boost added at sea level. He as our Technical Director has determined the boost levels that he is happy with on each car. This is only one small part of the testing, he has had destructive testing carried out on components and we have carried out cylinder pressure testing. The result of all of these tests have allowed us to determine our own safe working limit for these cars. If you just "bolt on" an APS TT kit you really struggle to get it to deliver less than 430 BHP at the flywheel. You need to work at getting the stresses down. The kit is excellent. Regards Allan
  2. As at today we have 4 x 350Z's with the APS TT installed. All operating ok. We have encountered a few manufacturing issues of late, due to APS having executed changes to the kit without informing any of us. These items were both annoying and seriouslty time consuming for us and inconvenienced the owners. However we just plodded on and overcame the hurdles presented to us. We deliver the cars back at around 335 BHP at the rear wheels [c405 BHP Flywheel] and just on 400lb-ft all at between 6.6 and 7.5 p.s.i. depending on configuration. We believe that these performance figures are the maximum that the cars should be on standard internals. Regards Allan
  3. We are aware that the kit was originally designed for LHD use but one has already been engineered into a UK car. As we at WRC are offering our own warranty we have no need to involve APS in this installation, should anything unfortunate happen. However we are more than confident nothing should go wrong due to the conservative set up we will give it. I would believe that the actual driving experience will be only slightly down on the Twin Turbo installation as we also set those up on ultra conservative settings. There should be no noticeable lag on either kit as the car has 3500cc capacity to help it along when off boost. Best Regards Allan
  4. Hi Plenum / Brace is £425 and exhaust is £680. We would not set up any Turbo single or twin to exceed 400lb-ft as this is where we believe the max torque should be on these engines. Allan
  5. We are currently offering a "Group Buy" price on APS Single Turbo kits, installed & mapped for only £5195 each. Drive in drive out. In order to achieve this price we require 3 confirmed orders. The APS Plenum/brace/exhaust is available for this car but is at extra cost. We expect to turn these cars out at a safe 380 BHP and 375lb-ft this is similar to most well set up Supercharger installations but with slightly more torque at lower revs. Call Allan on 08709-911797 and these can be done this year still.
  6. Petes car produces 339.7 BHP at the wheels. This is not to be confused with the American whp which is usually the flywheel power as measured by a rolling road. In the UK the only group we have encountered so far that works only in ATW figures are the Mitsubishi Lancer Register frequenters. Cheers Allan
