JGY-GT28RS turbo kit - $3,200
includes: (all pieces new)

- GT28RS Turbo
- JGY Manifold
- 4 50lb Injectors
- JGY Fuel Rail
- Injectors Connectors
- 2.5 inch Downpipe
- JGY Intercooler Kit
- 300Z MAF
- J pipe
- lines/fittings/actuator bracket/actuator



This is a complete bolt on turbo kit. The ONLY thing else needed is a tuned ECU for the kit to be ready for your Nissan FWD SR car providing you with up to 340HP.
We also can custom make this kit to work with the JGYBB37R or JGYBB37 and other injectors. Please inquire.


or should i just stick to a gtir swap?

money wise ..it seems to be in the same rank...
2300 for a gtir engine..a shop charges 1800 to install it..
but i would still need parts ..maf. fpr. tuned ecu about $500. and etc

so its near the same price range..what do u guys think i should go for ??

me personally would go for the JGY kit

you could also put together a kit yourself with parts bought here in the forum

3200 is a lot. i can mild build a motor with 2g. pistons..rods, bearings..headgasket. port and polish head. and with the 1200 left. u can get a complete turbo kit on this forum. ull most likely get everything included. just my 2 cents

if all you want is 300hp, the stock GTIR motor and turbo can do that no problems.

+1 on putting together a kit for cheaper than that. Plus I have heard some LONG wait times with their products.

I would definitely do some reading around these parts regarding JGY, before ordering anything from them. They've really been hit or miss. If it's something they didn't manufacture themselves, parts can be had rather quickly. Otherwise, buyer beware.

+ 2 on piecing a kit off the forums cheaper and its still just a bolt on on my opinion I would go GTI-R many GT2871R and supporting mods it would be cheaper and bit more powerful

well my engine does need a rebuilt it has about 259,xxx miles on it..
and well i i know theres kits here on the fourms for cheap..but theres usually something missing or lil things like that...i would want something reliable that would last me a while without having to get new parts to the kit..or anything like that..so it does seem like a good deal..just a lil to expensive..but it states somewhere near 340hp..despite the fact of ther await time for their shipping...is it a reasonable kit?...

When you are obtaining performance, you sacrifice reliability. get a gti-r. honestly.
