More frequently asked questions about this platform, in this video I cover what individual components are recommended to get best results from doing a turbo setup on your 370Z or G37.
This is a general overview with recommendation on brands of parts, along with me tuning my turbo 370Z NISMO to over 650whp with a Boosted Performance single turbo kit and 100% stock engine.
Enjoy the video and drop a comment with questions.

[@GR1MR34PER33]

The stillen kit is great. Grab a SOHO A2A to go with it and you can hit these numbers np. SC kits are probably more fun with low end torque

[@GR1MR34PER33]

@imrudolphmirga_ig686 the vq37 is plenty reliable boosted, with the right tune. SC kits are even more reliable on stock internals since they have smoother torque curves. SC kits just need A2A intercoolers to keep intake temperatures down. More reliable running more power on an A2A than running less power with the water intercooler that comes with the stillen kit

In Chicago, we have OBDII emissions testing every two years. No sniffer is involved, as the test checks for a service engine soon light and whether the emissions sensors are active and supported. Will the engine management system allow me to keep the sensors active and, if so, what about the e85 flex fuel system plugged into the evap system?

[@Korkoooo]

I live in chicago too, i believe in this video the 370z in on stock ecu, if it is OBD2 still works, but your tuner can tune some stuff out to pass emissions if you really need to. If not you can fill out this form: illinoisairteam.net/waivers-exemptions-extensions/. That is for emission exemption, but make sure to fill out the Sporting Activity Vehicle Exemption. Just scroll down a bit if you cant find it. I believe you gotta do this every 2 years. Its like an application, they just gotta accept you. Lmk if you got more questions! GL
