  1. Thanks! I was looking at the GRW kit (obviously where I ordered my MS kit from) but was turned off that it did not include a bov. For now I am going to just get the MS kit installed and get her running right and then explore IC kits. Appreciate all the feedback!
  2. OK. I am not opposed to putting an IC in but the best options I found (kits that are ready to drop in) require the removal of the engine fan and clutch with an addition of an electric fan on the radiator to make room for piping and the removal of the carbon canister. I am not concerned with emissions as the car is considered a classic in New York State and will not need to pass emissions for inspection. Kits I am referring to: https://www.cxracing.com/intercooler-kit-nissan-datsun-280zx-s130/KIT-L28ET-280ZX-IC0029-25 (this one comes with a blow off valve) https://www.godzillaraceworks.com/turbo/datsunfmic (no blow off valve) Questions: Do you (or anyone) know of any IC kits that do not require the removal of fan/clutch, carbon canister? I am not into sourcing old IC's off other cars or custom bending pipes. Looking for easy installation solutions. Can anyone point me to a post/article on how to do the removal of the carbon canister? This is another area that I have not found any good resources on. This is how the rabbit hole starts. Now I'm thinking if I'm going this far, do I upgrade the fuel rail and injectors... I guess I wouldn't need to unless I plan to go over 12-14psi (which I don't)? Thanks again!
  3. Hello All, I have searched far and wide and cannot seem to get a good answer to this question. I am about to pull the trigger on a Megasquirt 2 v3.57 with electronic boost controller. I started going down the rabbit hole of upgrading the fuel rail and adding an intercooler but I think I would just like to keep her as stock as possible and just upgrading the ECU. That said, if I just upgrade the ECU with this Megasquirt kit, what amount of boost can I run without any other upgrades, mainly an intercooler. I understand that at about 12psi I'm hitting the limit of the turbo, injectors, and getting to the danger zone of detonation? Does anyone have any experience running 8, 9, 10psi without an intercooler? Apologies again if I have missed an easily searchable topic. Best, cpan
  4. Hello! I've searched this topic but to no avail and I'm banging my head. Does anyone know where I can get a color wiring diagram for an '82 ZX Turbo? I have a PDF copy of the FSM but those diagrams are not the best and we're having trouble reading them. I've recently had auto to manual transmission swap done. We took an '83 manual from a doner and put it in my '82. Thanks for looking!
