Who's most of us? A turbonetics kit is of great quality and potential, it's plenty. Learn how to tune SMART (it's not just about the HP), not to mention drive better, and it is plenty.

Your customer wants more HP to the wheel... well, how about a nice pair of sticky tires.

Your client wants a better, more agressive feel? How about some coil overs, sways, strut braces.

If your client wants to pour money in for better performance, go buy a different car. Why buy a car to tune if you're having someone else do all the tuning? For bragging rights? "my tC is better than your 350z!" it just cost more because I had to pay someone else to tune it...

I apologize if I come off as an asshat. But tonight I'm feeling like an asshat. You want your sugar coat, go buy yourself pixie sticks.

I'm done here.

First of all I've been in the business for years so don't respond to me like I am idiot. I asked for specific advice on a specific situation. Go take your asshat responses elsewhere. It's not my car but I can understand what he wants to do. I bought a Turbonetics kit for my car and have since modified it and built my block and am running more boost. Boost is addictive and while I don't think 350whp is necessary 300-325whp is not a bad goal. So please keep your philosophies out of this thread. I want hard data, experiences of what I need to change out or who has done and what they have liked. Otherwise I am just going to go with:

JE/CP Pistons
Carillo Rods

Turbonetics T3/T04 E .60 trim .63 A/R

550cc injectors

Either custom tune the UNICHIP further or take on the Emanage Ultimate

You'll need bigger injectors then 550's. The turbonetics kit has 630's stock. Someone in here has maxed those out at about 350 whp I believe.

This is simple. First, sell the tC. Second go to a Nissan dealership, buy your favorite 350z. Take it to a tuning shop with the supercharger on the engine...tune, a good 350rwhp no problems! Plus it looks sharper, plus you dont have to cart all your friends around!

Anyhow, back to the subject matter. I concur with everyone else on the 550cc injectors. I've maxed those out myself, and I don't have 350whp.
