    id buy the z3 over the cartuning kit...crappy pieces and crap customer service come with the cartuning kit. look at the pieces compared to ZZP's. not to mention the place where the wastegate goes. the Z3 kit with a great tune will easily put a 3800 into the 11's

    Let's not call it crappy pieces, lets just call it cheap 11's. The wastegate is the same location on a Z3 kit also, Z3 just has open dump. The few things that I have changed and would like to change on the cartuning kit is add another bung for the wideband, convert it to open dump wastegate, I modified the stock manifold so cylinder #6 was pointed toward the crossover piece instead of away from it. It kinda takes a bit of finangling to get to plug #6 but i have it down pretty well now. Also upgrade to a T67 from matt m and see if i can get the downpipe v-band clamped.

    So the only things you would change for the CT kit would be the wastegate,add a bung, and a bigger turbo? (which will come down the road I think I will be good with the 61 for a bit.)

    Do you have any proof of crappy pieces/customer service? Or is it all speculation?
