Has anyone installed one of these cool devices on a Z? Or indeed know if it possible to do so?

Deeply sceptical I'm afraid. I would have throught that there is already plenty of turbulence in the inlet manifold, especially with the turbos running. In my very brief skim of the we site it would indicate that two are required when an engine is greater than 2.6 litres, I would also assume that two are likely to be needed for the Z anyway - one for each bank of cylinders. I shall keep my sceptical hat on until someone proves me wrong. Is there a 'money back guarantee' of their claims anywhere ?

From what I understand it leans the fuel/air mixture by letting more air in at moments, which are dangerous for turbo'd engines.

I wouldn't recommend running lean at full throttle/full boost and/or during acceleration

 

For an NA it might be something to look into though..but usually these kind of gadgets don't do shit and are a waste of money.

If they worked the moter manufacturers would fit them!

oh...I just read in their FAQ, that on turbo charged engines the thing will close itself as soon as the turbos are creating positive boost (I hope so)

SO.. then the device is basically worthless on a turbo-charged car anyway (and especially on a twin turbo)

HMMMMMMM I could make one of those out of a sewing spindle lol
