Always use fuel with a minimum octane rating of 93 (R+M)/2. (Equivalent to 98 RON).

Before Commencing Installation Verify that you have all necessary tools as listed. Clean all air ducting prior to commencing installation. The sequence of installation of each part is very important. It needs to be carried out exactly as outlined in the instructions. Failure to do this will result in an unnecessary level of frustration. Always use fuel with a minimum octane rating of 93 (R+M)/2. (Equivalent to 98 RON). Always use an oil graded for use with gasoline turbocharged engines. Depending on your chosen application, an engine oil cooler and/or larger capacity radiator may be required. The APS turbosystem is primarily intended for installation by qualified technicians in fully equipped workshops. If this installation is attempted in a non-professional environment, all personal safety obligations rest with the individual(s) concerned. The minimum requirements (and by no means an exhaustive list) are: Well ventilated environment. Clean flat and level floor. High quality vehicle stands. Required Tools (1) Metric ¼ drive socket set c/w universal coupling 6 to 16 mm. 3/8 drive socket set c/w universal coupling 10 to 20 mm. Wrench open end/box combination 8 to 22 mm. Hex key 4 and 5 mm. (2) Imperial Wrench open end/box combination ½ to ¾. (3) General Screw driver set. Pliers flat, point, side cutter, multigrip. (4) Sealants Permatex ultra copper P/N 101BR. Permatex ultra grey P/N 599 BR. Page 1 of 57

Loctite thread sealer P/N 567. Preliminary - APS350Z-TTSS/09 Installation Guide 1 350Z Disassembly NOTE IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THE FACTORY SERVICE MANUAL BE FOLLOWED WITH STOCK COMPONENT REMOVAL AND REPLACEMENT. Remove the retaining clips and screws and remove the front bumper. (If unsure of this procedure, you should use the factory service manual or have qualified personnel undertake the work). This is suggested as the first step since the vehicle is still mobile at this stage and the work can therefore be undertaken away from the actual turbosystem installation location. In addition, it reduces the likelihood of body damage to the vehicle while undertaking the mechanical work. 2 Remove the battery shroud and RHS false firewall cover.

Completion of Installation - APS350Z-TTSS/09 Installation Guide 1 Re-fill engine with oil. Due to the enlarged oil pan capacity, this will take 5.0 quarts, without oil filter. Check level on dip stick. This should be at the low level line. This is correct, as the pan floor/pump pickup has been lowered 12.0 mm. Do not over or under fill! Below 0 F ambient temperature, use SAE 5W-40 or 5W-50. Over 0 F ambient temperature use SAE 10W-40 or SAE 10W-50. Ensure the oil grade utilized is suitable for use with gasoline turbocharged engines. 2 Re-fill power steering system with its previously drained oil. 3 Bleed the engine cooling system NOTE IT IS CRITICAL THAT THE FOLLOWING PROCEDURE BE FOLLOWED EXACTLY! IT IS TIME CONSUMING, HOWEVER, ESSENTIAL! 1. Remove water return line (Item 166) from Tee piece (Item 167) in stock upper heater hose. 2. Fill radiator and coolant recovery reservoir (Item 126), with anti freeze coolant. It should take 10 quarts, including reservoir. It is important that the coolant is poured through the radiator filler neck at less than 1.5 quarts per minute, in order to allow air in the system to escape. 3. When the engine coolant overflows the connection at the Tee piece (Item 167), re-install water hose (Item 166) and tighten the connection. Page 56 of 57

4. Warm the engine to the normal operating temperature with the radiator cap installed. 5. Run the engine at 3,000 RPM for 10 seconds and then allow it to return to idle speed. 6. Repeat the above steps three times. 7. Stop engine and allow coolant temperature to drop below 120 F. o o Use a remote electric fan to assist in this process. If necessary, refill the radiator and reservoir up to the filler neck. Repeat steps 3 to 7 at least two more times (it may take more) with the radiator cap installed, until the engine coolant level no longer drops. 4 Check the cooling system for leaks with the engine running. Remember, water now runs through both turbochargers. 5 Fully warm the engine and listen for the sound of coolant flow through the heater unit, inside the car; while running the engine from idle to 3,000 RPM, with the heater control set at several positions between cool and warm. Repeat this action three times. If any sound is heard, continue to bleed excess air from the cooling system, by repeating steps 3 to 7 until the coolant level no longer drops. NOTE This procedure can be most frustrating; however it is a function of the stock cooling system design and has nothing to do with the APS turbosystem. It must be carried out identically with a totally stock vehicle! 6 The Accelerator Pedal Released Position/Butterfly Valve Closed Position Learning operation must be performed whenever the harness connector to the Drive By Wire butterfly assembly or stock computer has been unplugged. This is a standard Nissan requirement 1. Make sure that the accelerator pedal is fully released 2. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position and wait at least two seconds. 3. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position and wait at least ten seconds. 4. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position and wait at least two seconds. 5. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position and wait at least 10 seconds. 7 Verify that all hose clamps are tightened 8 Verify all components which are affected by engine movement have sufficient clearance to adjacent body panels. 9 Verify there are no oil, water or most importantly fuel leaks in either the engine compartment or on top of the fuel pump / sender unit. Replace the trim cover. 10 After a final check for fluid leaks, replace the cosmetic engine cover, strut tower brace and front bumper. Then replace the plastic undertray. Page 57 of 57
