Wait a second unless I totally miss my understanding here there is no point at which the engine will have all the valves sealed up and allow the intake mani to be pressurized. And a valve leak isn't the same as a boost leak either I don't think. I don't think you can boost leak test your intake...

Damn I lean towards the turbonetics personally even though your saying the garret has the vaband flange, which is oh so nice for mounting and aligning. But finding a mani that is vband is much more challenging

Holy crap, I wasn't aware anywhere near these numbers were possible with a CT upgrade, would this even be reliable though?

I just checked all my shims on my 2jz and here is the result. Intake 1A - .008 1B - .008 2A - .008 2B - .009 3A - .010 3B - .010 4A - .009 4B - .009 5A - .010 5B - .011 Outofspec? 6A - .010 6B - .010 Exhaust 1A - .010 1B - .0115 2A - .010 2B - .011 3A - .0115 3B - .012...

Sounds to me like you have things under control and will get it figured out though. Good luck anyways.

Perhaps it's different with the Fluidyne rad but with my Koyo rad I had to get a totally different cap. I found the cap of a GE fit it but not the cap off my GTE. Ended up buying a brand new one anyways, but make sure the one you get will fit.

Yup, I think I'm gonna have to agree with you on those turbos, never seen the like before. Oh, well, mistakes are made and we move on.

continuation since I can only insert 5 pics at once. Ya I know the engine bay is still a mess, I'm working on it.

First two pics are my motor back in 97, I bought mine in 1990. Current pic of it in the back alley behind my house. Older picture of it in my old garage.

Hood finally on the car, although not finished yet.

Damned shame to see it happen, but also good too see the car held up well and let him live for another day. Must have hit her hard though from the looks of it, without a doubt.

Here's a youtube link to my exhaust sound tests. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=topWMB7trJ8

Hey man, seriously don't let my critical attitude towards them throw you off here. Seriously, as I said it may be a great product. But I strongly dislike the way of presenting it when compared to other and their constant misinformation they spread. It may be a great or good product. I seriously...

Yup, BINGO, thats the video I was referring to and I commented about it there too and then a few days later I got this private message from them explaining that the GT4088r is a roots type forced induction.......ummmm noooo, anyways here is the message I got verbatum. mkrv4jtta Reply to your...

No way is this a likely real deal. Hello it's even a LHD. He probably has some nice ocean front property in Arizona to sell also.

Here's some old photos I found of my engine waaaaay back in 1997 that I found interesting, I hardly remember it like this any more. And Here's a more up to date shot of it from day before yesterday in my back alley.

The only way you could retian tract control is if you got the traction control CPU as well as the ECU with your motor. Oh wait then you would also have to somehow transfer the independant rear wheel speed sensors and front too, as our cars use a single channel for the rear antilocks that is not...

Are you talking about the intercooler itself or the IC piping kit? The piping kit is really good value in my opinion. You get a great selection of pipes, rubber joiners, and good quality clamps.

I have H&R's on my car and have had them on for almost 10 years. I love em, but I have mine on adjustable Bilstien's. I'll post up a pic for ya in a bit here.

Wait a second.......didn't the Synapse guy say that their BOV NEVER surges? Oh wait thats another conversation entirely.....LOL.
