It wasn't hard at all, which is precisely why you should have been able to do it yourself.

The problem you seem to be having is that you haven't really spent any time in the FI, and you're already making post that for all intents and purposes are pretty pointless. The FI can be a tough forum, but there is a lot of great info in here too. Just don't make any new threads for a while and do some actual reading about the subject you are curious about.

To be honest search in FI for a single turbo and let me know how many responces you get. A ton, its not worth it unless I know who made the kit, the power I am looking for. I even tried to search for why people choose single turbo and I either got none or way to many cuz the word turbo is in every thread. The search PHPBB provides is weak. People that are newer into cars here are either afraid to come here because of the responses or cant find there answers. Like I stated its best to either provide a link to help or just give em an answer or just say FI for HR motor only and lock out everything else. I am glad you see its a tough forum but as a mod you should fix that

I'm not a mod.
I think you just need to lay low and do as much reading as possible, and make sure you understand what you're talking about. Thats my advice.

I am saying in general a mod should do that, I have done that in the past. You want the forum to be a good experience to learn and have fun. And I do agree with you

FYI, this forum does not use phpbb, my350z uses vBulletin. Now if you searched, you would have known that. LOL

You have to crawl before you can walk. Learn the basics of N/A & F/I and than you will understand the pluses and minuses of TT vs. ST. That is why everyone is getting upset. We explain something, thinking you have some type of knowledge on the subject, only to have to explain what we just explained.

Actually, I believe most people here don't fully understand the differences between twin and single turbos. Two is not always better than one.

Which goes back to my original thing! FI forum should be closed. Make a new one that is just for the new HR motor. Going by what everyone has stated as everything has been posted, close the forum then and have stickies people find useful as the top 50 things listed. Or break it down from beginner to advanced. So the posts about what is FI is beginner and advanced would be how to tune a 15psi boosted motor. Just using this as an example. This will keep the forum the way you want it because that is not stated as post only for HR motor all others search.
