If no one buys the cosworth I will try that on. Since I have the stock plenum and 1/2 spacer, when I get back in two weeks I am going to throw it on the dyno to make sure everything looks good (A/F, boost no leaks) I will do it with 1/2" spacer (I owe Tony this) and then take it off and throw the Cosworth.

people can't ree-aaad

wow, amazing your engine survived, fantastic! 133 is ridiculous... gotta go back soon...

guess running less bolts isn't the greatest idea on those plenums with big boost.

Congrats Luie on the new times, and it is clear there is better still to come. I had the same thing happen to my maxima's intake manifold when I had a nitrous backfire - only it folded the hood up in the middle

The Cosworth piece is pretty stout, but backfires are rough and find the weakest link.

I am glad you did not damage the motor Luie. With 133mph trap speed...in my eyes you automatically get the 10sec.
