The cheapest I've seen is 4695 w/o the intercooler which is about 1200. the greddy is the cheapest and the only one i have seen installed but power enterprise makes one too. it's 7k though.
I'm pretty sure a TT will void your warranty, lol

Some FI give you good warranties on them, but i dont believe greddy is one of them. They're really all about the same price, all around the $7K-$8K mark, and then plus installation, its all about 10 grand.

Just be smart when you shop . . . get a quote, present it to the next guy, and then let them price war over it :D I did that . . . and got mine for around 5600 w/intercooler. If I had a little extra loot, I'd sell mine and get the APS . . .

Why do you dislike the Greddy so much?

It's not necessarily that I dislike Greddy (to a degree), but after seeing an APS kit, the quality and design, far outweigh the sub-1500 price difference, which I know could be trimmed down since the APS install is arguably much easier.
Each TT company set an objective when designing their TT kits. Greddy chose shelf parts, first to market, and price point. APS takes pricing out the equation (no deviation from their MSRP), designed the system from the ground up, made subtle changes that answered a few flaws in the Greddy & PE kit (discussing at a later date), and test drove their vehicles (2 Zs, if I remember correctly) for more than 9 months.
As for its tuning limits (APS), I'm not sure, but IMHO, anything past 450-500whp is not streetable for a daily driver, plus involves building the bottom end, changing out the clutch assembly, and requires a real tuner (someone who hasn't blown engines by pushing the vehicle beyond its limits). Combine that with the fact that 11sec cars need a roll cage, and you now have a street car gone drag. Focus on one or the other, street or drag, and you'll have one nice project car.
On a similar note, unfortunately, only 10% of "tuners" are really worthy of tuning our vehicles to safe, yet efficient level. If you have aspirations of going beyond 350whp, be ready to address the sub par fuel system and lack of timing control (unless you wire in some diodes to their ignition harness--without the diodes, you'll fry some coil packs) when using a Greddy kit. The APS includes a new fuel system and answers the timing question, which also accounts for the higher cost.

350G makes some very valid points. The rods are very weak on these cars. Whichever kit you do decide on, none will supply internal parts so you will have to make sure that the system is tuned by experience mechanics. Also if you go with Greddy, I will give you a very good deal. Here is a link to one of our customers post http://www.350zmotoring.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=14845&highlight=wayne
