Just cut it with a 1.5" hole saw and a drill. Then take it to get tig welded. I will post pics of mine in a day or two when its finished.

Cause no one wants a sliced cow sandwich:mrgreen:

215-60-14 Is what I run in the rear. Same tire got me time in sig below. http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=BFGoodrich&tireModel=g-Force+T%2FA+Drag+Radial&vehicleSearch=false&partnum=16R4GFTADR&fromCompare1=yes&place=2 ...

Simple........ SEARCH!!!!

In the last 2-3 years yeah. That is pretty much the way I saw it. Go as long as I can then just pay up. Worked out pretty good in my opinion. Last warrant I had, I went to pay for it and it was like $675. I got 4 of them taken care of for under $1100. Good deal in my book! Plus no "time served". Just a ride down to local station.

HAHa..... Turbonetics no questions asked warranty FTW!!!

Not really, just the first pick I found lol. Of course you lose low end. Your are trying to make horsepower! Not lowend torque. You gotta tune and match your mods. Cam, intake, header, port work, ect all have to work together. As in be designed to increase the power made in similar rpm ranges. Back pressure is not needed on a N/A motor to make power. You may be confusing back pressure with exhaust velocity, wich is used for port scavenging. Go down to your local 1320' and you will see most of the old schooler american v8s are racking long tube only. Small blocks and big blocks anywhere from 350hp on up. They want there motors making power WAY up high. My old boss was shifting his mild BBC at like 7500rpm.

^^^True story

Not exactly true. With tune its fine........ see. lol

Sweet bulge!!

I have had them for at least 2 years. Alway just told other officers I had a warrant when I handed them my license. They are to lazy to want to do the work it takes to arrest some one so they would either just give me a verbal warning or a hand written citation so they would never put my name through the system and it show they did not arrest someone with a warrant. This is maybe the 10th time and she was going to let me go but she called me in anyway and found out I had 4 of them and was like......Yeah, Mr.Callaway, please step out of the truck. LOL

sorry, had to bring this sweet butt thread back from the dead!!!

Thanks, I suppose you could "burn" a valve. Though I have never seen one, but that does not say much. The Idea behind doing a performance mod is being able to tune for the change in airflow into the motor. There is a very good post on this kind of thing witch it below. I think the whole "burn a valve" thing is from very old thinking in the american muscle car world. Carbs and people that dont know any better doing mods and not tunning for them can damage things on a non turbo motor also. http://forums.hybridz.org/showthread.php?t=110185

I blew my BOV off, yes off, at the track and drove home without one. Could still produce over 5psi of boost!!! Flow in wastegate and compressor side or totally differant. A 1.5" hole before the turbo in the manifold and there is pretty much no way you are going to build any boost. Same hole in the intake side and depending on the turbo you may still be able to boost the crap out of it.

All my tickets are crappy registration or inspection. Think one was a stop sign. Had 4 warrants for my arrest. Have not got a speeding ticket in a long time.

Thats all. Got out about 2 hours ago lol. Oh well, lesson learned. PAY YOR TICKETS!!

just ball park the stages, you should be fine. I usually do like 15-40-65

well then I would snag that cause I bet you could find someone to pay $800+

Are you kidding me?!?!?! The initial shock of that launch is far more wear than you car will probably ever see! And as far as the consistancy..... You will find there is a reason you dont see many, if any at all, Zs drifting. They are not consistant going sideways. Grip is where they shine. You can find a running z for hald the price of a running silvia around here. Plus tha parts are like a thousand times more plentiful for the SX than the Z.

I was supposed to be "falls" not fell. I still would prefer the r200 and some random corvette diff. But thatss just me. I like my datsun stuff ya know. lol

Why not? I think it is a good guess on a 100% 280zx going to full exhaust. I would suspect your milage may vairy but and untunned upgrade like that on an l28e might show 10hp MAYBE 15hp on a dyno in the upper rpm. The OP is talking about hacking off his already modified exhaust in search of more hp. I gave the recomendation of a larger pipe diameter. But still on a factory L28e that has a high flowing muffler on it already a larger pipe might not even be noticed.

with out a wastegate the turbo will be trying to go max boost (maybe >30psi) even if the popoff has blown. This depends on the turbo of course. I would just do it right thee first time.

I am selling my pretty much new internal wastegate for 5 bolt setup. Let me know, cause these things are like $100 new! Also have the actuator if you need that. Think they are $95 new. Make me some offers.

if people can lift the wheels with a r200 then I really dont see thee need for anything else. Except maybe a shortnose.

Haha, well, its still a bit weird.
