Dude, enjoy it while it lasts. You have so much freedom to… Wait. What?

So is there a pair of turbo’s for a 300ZX? I thought single was better, able to get more power out of one big one or something? :gotme:

yea you can get big power out of one but phat wasnt making crazy power out of his he was under 400 if im not mistaken…but it was quick as shit…no spool time just instant b00ts… smaller turbos have better response/less spool time…so what d oyou do to compensate for less power if you have a smaller turbo? have two smaller turbos, duh 😛

Yup! I love the single setup but it has a small down-pipe 2.5 which restricted the setup to get more power. To get more power with the single you have to some how re-route the piping and get bigger turbo, but that requires lots of times and money.  
I don’t know if my car will be done this season as Mike, Justin, and Jay at Innovative is so backed up with work.

This car was already retardedly fast… like one of the fastest cars i have ever seen on the street.

I cant imagine needing more power than that, in fact, around a circuit i doubt these mods will make the car any quicker.

I know bing 🙂 On the circuit you don’t need a fast car, but need a good driver. But on the street I got stomped by stage 3 SRT4 with spray and some other turbo’ed honda 🙂 Building the internal is just for safety and longevity. I want to keep this car running for a long time.

Are you going to go with oversized valves too or standard? How much of a gain are you expecting with a 5 angle job? Personally, I don’t think the 5 angle is worth it compared to going with oversized valves but to each his own. Should “funner” x 10 with all these goodies. Take some pics when it’s all done!

man that wouldnt even bother me. An SRT4 had better be really fast because it’s ugly, fwd and a neon.

And no matter what you do there will always be an EG hatch that is faster than god torque steering into oncoming traffic.

Here is what available for the valve mod after I did my built. But it will increase the cost trememdously so I stay with standard size valve. I don’t know how much gain with the 5 angle job but it’s included in the build. I’m not going all out crazy, but just enough to hanging with some local fast cars 🙂
