Default JWT TT Install in my '05 G35

Well, it took a while due to some issues (totally my fauly and not NAC Autosports), but I finally got out of there late Saturday night with my G and the JWT kit installed. It drives like a beast now, and I haven't even really had a chance to run it yet, but I love it. Totally smooth, normal driving until I push on the gas, and then the turbos spool almost instantly, and wham, it's time to switch gears (I can't beleive I just used wham in a sentence...)

Anyways, it's great, and Bill of MAC Autosports was really good about the whole thing, as well, which involved a number of calls to JWT and the like, since this was the first kit they put in, and my G wasn't stock in the first place either. The dual front intercoolers look really agressive, I'll have to take some ics later, and now there is absolutely no extra room under the hood with all the piping, but it's great. MAC did a really professional job, and their tuner, Nick, did very well, as well.

The dyno sheet is below, and anyone in the Springs area is more than welcome to take a look and go for a ride.

Very nice! That is my favorite TT kit by far. Excellent choice! Coming to the PMI track day with this beast, because that would be a great place to really open it up.

I'd love to, but I will be out of town for Thanksgiving. Next time, though (which will probably be next season...)

Congrats, Dave! Is MAC Autosports an authorized installer of JWT TT kits?

Are you still running with the stock cats?

1. They are now.

2. HKS true dual exhaust and Crawford hi flow cats

Probably got another 10-15 hp in there at the same boost, but the injectors are almost maxed out. I'll need to go with bigger injectors, a higher flow fuel pump, and a boost controller next, and then, I would need to start building the engine, which I am not sure I am going to do.

Get the AAM fuel return kit $1000.... best mod for the money when going FI. Mac tuned my G35 there (I have a UTEC)....they do a great job.

Altered atmosphere fuel return system... the stock system is a "return-less"...real the link for details. Nick at MAC showed me 350z TT's they dynoed that went from the 350-400 range to well over 500rwhp because of this sytem.

Congrats! I also saw your G at the dyno day a couple of weekends ago when Mac was still waiting on the correct IC. Hopefully I'll have a chance to see the finished product at another one of these events. I'd love to take a ride in a TT Z (haven't had the chance yet).

I assume you're running the stock boost level on the kit? Any chance you're able to post up the chart of your A/F ratios from the dyno also?

What link?

And geezin, I'll get around to dl'ing the right program to read the dyno files; I have them all, and they include the AFR, and the boost is the stock JWT boost. As for a ride, no sweat; I'll probably be down at Rob's house on the 19th, so then works, or whenever there is another meet. I'll probably have a meet at my house after our basement gets finished, and make it a mod/maintenance meet, especially if I get a BBK, so I have some helping hands...

I just thought today was your day off, and that it was some other crew. Oh well.

Anyways, haven't put enough miles on it yet to tell if it's burning more gas, but I'm sure it is, since my right foot has become slightly heavier...
