Message	even know HKS Japan had produced a GT2530 kit for the Z for like 2 years! then, they tried to tell me that it wouldn't fit US spec Z. and then, they were telling me that a HKS triple plate clutch wouldn't fit a Z. i have lots more of that kinda stuff if u want me to go on... lol. anyways, NEVER believe ANYTHING those guys tell you. the turbos are rated at 310ps max. if you look at all the turbos out there, everyone rates their turbos at max psi (i.e. Sport 600's make 600hp at 24psi)... why would HKS not rate them at their fullest potential? anyways, besides ratings, I have never ever seen any GT2530's make 550 rwhp and I know of 3 guys here who have dynoed (myself, qqqman, and badzcar), plus I know 4 other guys in Japan who have dynoed as well. Out of everyone, I haven't seen anyone make more than 530rwhp (that's me... teehee). then again, i don't have an underdrive pulley, so maybe you could eek out another 20rwhp and actually hit your 550rwhp target. that would be pretty damn cool... good luck and keep us posted!

Datalogs every run... launches with boost in your 5-speed... keeps turbos spooled between shifts... enables controlled power slides... valet mode prevents abuse of your Z... unlike most factory systems, maximizes acceleration!
