I used the OEM gaskets since the way they are consturcted are the same as a lot of the OEM honda gaskets which can support 500hp on 4cyl all day. If this theory hold true, at least all of us know now that the Nisssan factory HG can handle 600whp+. Depending on my build plans I will probalby go with the Cometic HG this time around. hint hint...

Hahaha oh man, I will when I get the chance, the tracks here are nearing closing time as we head into winter . Hopefully I will get a chance, I can take it to the track!

My low boost map will be in the range of 12-13 psi, virtually the same numbers as yourself.. 488whp right?

489whp but who's counting? At these levels driving ability/traction is the deciding factor-even from a roll, ask any of the guys Ive run

Where do you plan on running at Zdayz? I'm still reeling from my $500 speeding ticket I got this year.

Oh, and then there was the blown motor. It was an expensive trip for sure!

500 WTF??? AT ZdayZ??? Where at? Care to tell what you were doing, besides the obvious of speeding?

Me and a few others were driving the Churohala (sp?) Skyway and I was the lead car. A cop clocked me speeding at the base of a huge straight downhill slope. He was hidden very well and I didn't see him until the last second and my V1 went off and it was too late.

He wrote the ticket for 74 in a 45. I was actually doing about 95-110 before I saw him and I'm sure he actually clocked me at at least 85. It was a manual court appearance so I hired a lawyer to do it for me.

Anyway, a bit off topic, but yeah...

Yeah I guess... I doubt they'll be setting up any road blocks based on this forum post. I was just curious as all the roads I saw were pretty damn curvy or crawling with troopers.

True. Hopefully my car will be running by then!

Yeah the area they were running at (I was trying to follow with my camera) was perfect for getting some long runs in. Two lane highway with a median and pretty straight for miles at a time. Virtually no place to shoot radar. Well maybe in a helicopter or Plane.
