Exclamation GT Motorsports: Turbonetics ST, FCon IS, Fuel System, *PIX*

Had the pleasure of working on this beautiful show car a few months back. This car is very tastefully done and has everything you can image, almost

"Sin City Runner"

Specs on vehicle:

2003 Infiiniti G35 Coupe
Turbonetics Sinlgle Turbo Kit
HKS FCon IS Engine Management System
Blitz SBC Boost Controller
AAM Return Fuel System
Walbro Fuel Pump
Denso 565cc Injectors
Kinetix SSV Manifold
Samco Hoses
GReddy Catch Can
Blue hoses through-out engine bay
Aluminum PS resevoir
APS Coolant resevoir
7 PSI wastegate spring



This car is primarily a show car so the customer's number on concern was reliability. Being this is a automatic car we did a very conservative tune so the customer can enjoy his car for years to come. Car is very stable and feels awesome, he need the extra power with all that nice audio equipment



Ultra-Conservative Tune: 91 Octane





As you can see the car as an awesome power curve and a/f curve, not bad for a piggy back system Below are some pics of the car enjoy!

Beatiful G! That curve looks more like a roots blower than a turbo.

Quick question- Why turn the BoV to the rear?

One of the first F/I Z's running Fcon IS it looks like? How does it compare to other stuff on the market like the UTEC?

Great job Sam!

Great job Sam!
Actually we have done quite a few FCon IS systems on the VQ35 platform, this is one of many that go through our shop. Another nice feature is that you can upgrade easily from the IS to the VPro when your budget allows.

Having worked with both the UTEC and the IS I prefer the IS because of its consistency and software interface.

I'm assuming you mean G35, since there isn't a Z here.

I originally inquired about the UTEC but after talking to Sam about the HKS IS, I couldn't be happier with my decision to go with the IS. Another sweet ride built by GTM!
