Best GT35R kit for the money

The clutch I burned up was an ACT street disc w/ the heavy duty pressure plate. I would do mini-burnouts before the launch and would hotlap the car many times in a day. The clutch did not last long obviously. I also powershifted every shift. Probably made around 50 passes.

I do EVERYTHING on my car except for the tuning. I prefer to leave that up to the professionals and not learn the hard way, my preference. But for the $225 a pop for the 2 times I've had my car tuned, I seriously doubt that's come close to what you've spent in repairs on your car.
Of course, we could keep going back and forth and turn this into a pissing contest, but there would be no point.
I think some of the hassles you've had could have been avoided if you bought a kit and didn't do a piecemeal setup. I also think your car probably could have run better if you let a professional tune it... but like you said, you'd know less about your car if you let that happen. You've got the money to spend leavning from your mistakes. I don't, so I try not to make them in the first place.

My car would run faster if I paid a professional to tune it, you are correct. It would also be faster if I had a professional race it.... what fun is that??? I dont like to toot my own horn but I do know what I am doing (At least more than 90% of the average Evo owners) and I learned it by doing it myself. I have not broken any internals in the motor.. unlike what seems like half the people on this forum. I have not paid any money to fix anything from a mistake... I cracked first gear from a launch on the street. It is the only part I have broken. Not too bad for a car with over 100 passes on a track with an amatuer driver / tuner / builder.
And to the moron that decided females need to be put in thier place... what is your damned problem? Grow the hell up. Or at least show me how much better you (The MALE) are than me when it comes to drag racing. Me and my boyfriend do this for fun, its our hobby... and its pittiful when jealous childs make rude comments about it. Especially when they know less about the sport, the car, the electronics, the tuning, the hardware, etc, etc. I dont think I need to keep explaining to you how big a moron you are.
Im not trying to be an @ss for all the other people. I just think people should have all the info possible.
my buddy is running a FR kit and Gt35R i sold him. he is very happy with the setup and tells me that it is a responsive turbo for its size, and tells me i should stop messing with my WR/20G bolt on turbos, and step up to a GT35R.

It's been an interesting month.
The GT35r's are getting rediculous. I can't tell at this point if it is our kit change that did it or the tuning on the cars I have done but the GT35R is turning into quite a streetable turbo. I use to hate the lag of them but the last few we put on were very quick to spool.
Yesterday a customer picked up his car. We had to go out and reset the boost and do some datalogging. This car was freaking fast. 24 psi of boost with alky/pump gas in it. Manual boost controller. Our GT35R kit. Stock 2 liter, stock head, 272 cams. Pretty basic Stage 4 plus a turbo kit and the AEM EMS. On the dyno I was hitting 20 psi of boost just before 4500 on the datalog. I just pulled up a log to verify, 20.71 psi at 4675 rpm. 10.2 psi at 4,000 rpm. On the street though it was even faster, 20 psi was in at 4100 rpm. Rediculously fast for a GT35R kit on a stock 2 liter. The car was enjoyable enough to drive that I would probably consider switching to our GT35R kit.

The car that I was talking about for spool up in my post Rich was tuned conseratively as it is a stock engine/head and such and the pulls were shut off at 7,000 rpm. At 25 psi the car made 420 whp on race gas and 365 on pump/alky.
