nice man, what mods have you done to that holley?

Good job man

Very nice.

Theres a guy on TTFs thats running two of those on a bonneville car actually just found a video 800ish hp on two of them so its safe to say around 400hp single. have fun.

does a '78 280z driveshaft work on '79 zx? both 5 speed cars... i wasnt sure if the diff flange was the same and the legnth of the shaft itself was the same legnth thank andy

Thanks for the support!. I'm in the process of moving to a new house so the cars on hold for another month or so. The new house has a 4 car garage so ill have plenty of room to work on the z.. im pretty excited andy

2" or 2.25" sounds good also

. . . 2.5" into WG 2.25" out i turned the WG outlet flange down until the 2.25" tube sliped over it. about .080 thou. seems like overkill but id really be surprised if i have any boost creep issues... all done with the hotside now. I'll have to tilt the radiator forward more than i wanted but i think it will be ok.

i think theres a guy on theturboforums.com thats running two of those on a bonneville car actually just found a video 1200hp on two of them so its safe to say 600hp on 1? have fun

doesnt look too bad... id take the housing off and lightly sand the edges of the wheel and run it..

post some pics so we can see whats going on..

I wanted to be able to leave the radiator in the stock location, which i did. If you look in that pic i cant really go down much further. I could have cut off the overhanging part of the t6 flange and brought the turbo down another inch or so. then the scroll of the turbine housing would be awful close to the water pump pully and belt. I didnt really know the turbo was going to be sicking out the hood so much. Probably should have just moved the radiator forward to fit the turbo out and lower... oh well next time... launch conrol with megasquirt should be pretty interesting... BANG BOOM POW FIREBALL

why? only thing i see is the pressure drop is greater than a a/w core...

heres how i made mine

Good to know thats what i was afraid off, boost creep... ill do what i can to get it close to the merge that i can.

thats not a bad idea.

Thanks for the reply dustin, your the resident expert. You think this 1.32 a/r will come in by 3500rpm?, man that would be sweet! How do you like your WG setup? i was thinking of doing the same.

thanks when i walk into the grage it still a shock of how big the dp is...hehe

whatever it takes to go 200 at bonneville,.. .. i was reading a thread on theturboforums.com last night and a guy had a built 383 that made 970whp with the exact turbo @20 psi.. pretty amazing for only 75mm. btw heres a more recent pic, the down pipe is finished

. . . .

very cool.. if i see your car i will def look for you. andy

Agreed.

A friend of mine has a english wheel and hammer. I think ill have a wack at making a bubble to cover it and weld it on... OR a cowell the hood but might not look that great?
