I got my car running great yester day! Its amazing how much difference this turbo makes!!! It feels a lot stronger than 230hp but Im probably wrong. Heres some pics of the finished product. Check out my gallery also for some cool 240sx and supra pics. It still needs some work, but at least its running and driving awesome.

very nice! im thinking about not doing quite the full build at first, just getting enough parts to go turbo on stock engine...get around the power you have then later coming back to the engine

sounds like too much fun and i really want some more power

hey can you take a pic of where the valve cover line goes to?(seems to go somewhere to the hot side pipes, but where is it connected?)(where the engine usually breathes through)

That line just goes to the pipe between the turbo and the maf. It is connected at the bottom of that pipe. Just put yours somewhere between your turbo and the maf. Itll do fine

Ive got a boost designs kit with a modified boost designs garret turbo. its the t3, but atr had it built to hold somewhere around 350-380hp. It spools crazy fast. Ill get you the exact specs on it tomorrow. Im running an fmu and stock injectors with a hks fuel pump and 300zx fuel filter right now, on weds. Im installing an safc II, profec b spec II, 370cc injectors, and new interior. I had my rear seats recovered with 2003 toyota celica material and Im putting the celica seats up front. Itll look awesome with alittle work. I think I can get maybe 300hp out of the car with this setup. I hope.

Not with those 370's....

You can probably squeeze 250hp from them, but even then you're pushing it.

350rwhp or so is safe

You can see it whenever you want too big manne......Brett. Im still trying to break in the freakin clutch. It sucks having to treat this thing like a baby. I hope to have an app. with dan on about weds. or thurs. to get the safc, profec b, and interior put in. If you dont see it before then, meet me at cowboys and we'll party. What you think about mikes car...wierd huh? The disc is fine, but it has lots of slippage. I guess its the pressure plate. I dont know.

Nismo does not make them in 444cc

444's in the Nissan community are top feed GTR/GTiR injectors

If you crank up your fuel pressure and lean out your 1-3000 mapping you can probably get close to 300 on 370cc injectors, we did it on a SR20 in Japan a few years back. If you have a way to control the duty cycle, then you can add fuel pressure and effectively increase the range of the injectors.

But don't forget about timing!

yeah the oil line comming off the turbo is going to the oil pan. The line on my valve cover is for my egt gauge. Yes I did use their down pipe, but I had to have and exhaust shop build me a pipe. It only took me and my mechanic a week to do a ka 40,000mile motor swap and turbo install, but we worked ourselves to death on it.
