it doesn't realy matter what the dyno numbers say its what the butt dyno says at the end of the day, theres plenty of big horsepower motors out there that are laggy as you like, from everything ive read youive got a well balanced package there, the tubs are big but the gtx range are real fast spooling compared to oldschool turbos, and the 2.5 inlet mods really seem to cut down on spool time and increase the engines ability to breath those turbos in efficiently, as im sure you have been doing this tendancy to go for the 3" exhaust system with the 2.5" inlets is very popular in the states and they are getting better power curves aswel as numbers out the vg because of it. Its a great shopping list and looks like you've been doing some research, I hope it works well for you.

aiv, prv, egr cruise, loads of crap under there that's both useless and messy.

ahh are they on stock pullies? or have you had to fit aftermarkets?

Will do bud il show you what ive been looking at for reference and what ive been thinking the good news is the bit I was worried about is mostly irrelevant :)

Oh right that's not too bad all things considered. Its boring and time consuming work aint it. You still on stock cams with this build?

oh yeah, that project I was discussing with you ive been hunting about, totally do able :)

How long did it take you to grind all that out then mark? Have you just taken it to the boundary of the gasket? I believe the exhaust side should be super smooth and the intake can be left rough as it aids mixture iirc.

ive got brand new plugs, ive got one of those stickers that says twin turbo fairladyz and a cherry air freshener that will be ok yeah?

ive seen your 30 rep count Christ mate you paying people to get it up!

we achieved over 60 views and 19 posts and actually not been on topic once hahah good old 300zx.co.uk

Paid jeeeeeeeze lol

what you get upto in your spare time is your own business lol

ohhhhhhhh now I'm with you :asshole: hahahaha

point me in the right direction lol and il do it now :)

Sxx?

Bit strong but il take it is jest, but genuine reason. Laziness lol since the format changed I haven t5 been bothered to go looking for the bit where I resubscribe lol. I sould really though makes life 8 million times easier.

I've been spending time getting things on my car right, reliable and manual. After the usual service items ive refreshed all the water pipes round the back, deleted all the rubbish and all that sensible stuff. Then I've fitted an uprated rad, uprated oil cooler, the auto turbos have been rebuilt with 360 degree trust bearings and step gapped oil seals, divorced down pipes, 2.5" decats, 2.5" catback . The car recently produced 286bhp and 277ftlb @ 5.4k rpm. So here's the question... what's next? obviously a chip and boost increase, id like to see around 370/380 fwhp so what do I need to amass and do to get it to that point. Ultimately I would like around 450bhp but that is going to be bigger tubs and will have to wait for another 18 months, before those kind of funds will be available.

Just delete it its next to useless unless you do loads of motorway miles in the night.

Without being an knob, do you know how? To bleed it properly I mean?

yeah could be an air lock, i know you've said you checked the connection, but theres two there and they are prone to causing this, mine you to go suddenly dead cold halfway round hard corner, i later realised that at high rpm the loom was moving an dit was lifting off slightly.

You should'a said bud we did about 3 runs with malcoms freelander on various settings, so I assume if u'd asked they would likely of done it.

powerstation, in glos.

it may not of had an increase in actual power but it will spool up much sooner and be more responsive.

could of swore I took more...whoops

I did a 250 mile round trip and had my rolling roaded. :)
