some one has told me that if i add boost jets it will give me more boost. when i look on the forum i see boost controllers and ecu remap at the same time my question is will boost jets on there own give more power and if so any estimated figures you can give me as ebay predict a whopping 52 horses but i cant really see that for $25 canadian dollars hahahaha as most cheap mods barley get you 5bhp (future mods in the next six months are EBC & Remapp & Upgraded Breaks) - Rob

Dodgy Temp Gauge
I Have a 1990 300zx TT Auto when i floor it it boosts fine +5mmhg aka 10psi and it flies but every now and again the temp dial drops from half way to C at the bottom and flickers then when i de-accellerate it returns to half way doesnt happen all the time but im worried it could be a problem any ideas would be helpful Ta Rob

Knightrider Zed, newbie question
http://www.proe.co.uk/units/index.php unit type=pressure unit in mmhg=700 convert to psi reads 13.53 because the -7 to +7 is mmhg x100 ;) im right for once i might wake the wife and tell her lol when it comes to cars im normally sooo wrong :D
-
Knightrider Zed, newbie question
ill do some research on wikepedia but if you look on youtube all TT's that have -7 to +7 all say mmhg on the gauge but all 14 to 14 say psi so id like to think +7 is 14psi :D
-
Knightrider Zed, newbie question
i have the same -7 to +7 its mmHg i think in psi its 14 to 14 so if you hit 5 then its 10psi altho i am a newb myself so i may have to stand corrected Rob

cheers lads :D been for a long drive today and loved it :D i wonder where to go from here now. front end squeeks on bumps but i ordered some springs and shockz :D new front brake discs and pads and a spare credit card just for the fuel looool wifey for the birthday was going to pay for a remap what do you lads think its reputable company i have seen ferrari's and lambos there its got a 2000bhp dyno lol they predict they can safely get an extra 70hp with freeflow airfilter and exhaust which i already have. 250 quid with a power run before and after with print outs does this sound worth while or am i throwing money away :D
