A simple "odd sounding" idea that works - thanks for posting.

What did you do to your zed today?
Information from Greg@SZ on the 740cc pintle less injectors: http://www.twinturbo.net/nissan/300zx/forums/main/view/1100871/Re-740cc-and-stock-boost.html Pintle less injectors are much more controllable (even large ones like 740cc) particularly at idle compared to pintle ones of the same flow rate.

Z1 2.5" "4 Bolt" Stainless Steel Downpipes
Yes, at least normally. I've posted pics of the SZ 2.5" supersplits here: https://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?187498-Help-Part-measurements-anyone&p=1952767&viewfull=1#post1952767

Help: Part measurements, anyone?
These are the tube dimensions for the 2.5" SZ supersplits. The inner bore dimension is a function of the tube wall thickness.

Howard replaced the ABS with the broken nipple (and stud extractor) with another ABS unit which also has a weeping nipple!

Help: Part measurements, anyone?
Interesting, if you take a look at the SZ page for exhausts you can see that 2.25" is for NAs, and 2.5" (and then 3") for TTs: http://specialtyz.com/shop/300zx.html?cat=7 These are outside diameter measurements.

You mean testpipes? They are all 2.5" downpipes (except the latest "expansion" type which are 3"): http://s95014253.onlinehome.us/63104/133158.html

Z1 2.5" "4 Bolt" Stainless Steel Downpipes
As far as I am aware the 62mm TBs are the only (new) types available now: http://specialtyz.com/shop/robz-62mm-throttle-bodies.html https://conceptzperformance.com/robz-billet-aluminum-62mm-upgraded-throttle-body-set-nissan-300zx-90-96-z32-rz-16118-xx-kt_p_19290.php Robert Bastain in the US provided a service to get stock TBs enlarged to 54mm. I'm not sure if he still does, but contact details are included: http://www.twinturbo.net/nissan/300zx/forums/classified/view/169467/CNCd-54mm-throttle-bodies-and-more.html

Z1 2.5" "4 Bolt" Stainless Steel Downpipes
You will require a remap for which you can get a custom map chip (or Nistune file) from SpecialityZ: http://specialtyz.com/shop/300zx/sz-ecu-chips.html For fine tuning you can fit a Nistune type 2 board and get yourself along to someone like Greg@Protuner for a rolling road setup: https://protuner.co.uk/ The power/torque outputs for the setup I referred to above are in the charts Greg@SZ published in the post.

Z1 2.5" "4 Bolt" Stainless Steel Downpipes
Dave, from Greg Dupree@SpecialityZ comes this advice on what can be achieved when retaining stock turbos and adding on "breather" parts: "I am here to tell you that IN MY OPINION it would be better to upgrade your intercoolers and pipes rather than upgrade your turbos if your not going to do both" Full post which includes what can be achieved with stock turbos (and stock engine) which is relevant info for you: "And last we will add a stock turbo, stock engine car to the chart that has 2.5" intercooler pipes, 2.5" Ash intercoolers, full 3 inch Exhaust, MS Manifolds, Selin dual intake, 740cc injectors" http://www.twinturbo.net/nissan/300zx/forums/general/view/2415470/A-little-info-about-turbos-and-pipes-DYNO-CHARTS.html
