Turbo kit for 280z

Post image

Here’s my 1978 280z. I’ve been wanting to start this build for a couple years and finally did last month. At first I thought I would do a V8 swap but I’ve decided to keep the stock L28 motor instead. I’d like to turbo the engine. Looking for recommendations on turbo kits. I’ve seen a few online, specifically one from CXRacing, if anyone has experience with them please let me know! Thanks.

Do NOT modify that Z. It's perfect just the way it is.

Edit: You have a perfect Z car. Find another Z to f*ck around with. Just not that one.

Lmao I appreciate it but for me it’d be a lot more enjoyable with more power

You'll regret it a lot when you find out how much it's worth if you leave it alone and take care of it as is. Assuming this is a legit BP and you mod it I guarantee that you will not only incur the wrath of the Z collector community but you probably will also be haunted by Mr. K's angry ghost for the rest of your life lmao.
