What an idiot. My car's holding together great. 15psi is more than I could ever need. In fact, I normally only run it at 10psi.

.64 A/R on the Stage-III. Stage-IV uses the same turbos with an A/R of .86.

im avoiding talking to him anymore than i need too otherwise i might try and suggest just that. originally he was trying to blame me that it blew up even though his shop cranked the boost controller up from 15% to 40+ on the duty cycle with 14lb springs in the wastegates.

on the other hand i want to get my s14 done and take it down for that! toying around with building a single turbo set up on it with fueled racing forward facing manifolds. it would make like 700 on 9 lbs on pump

Totally should!
I would get an "oil-less" turbo then just dump that sucker out the fender. Use a water to air intercooler for low pressure drop and force feed that bish. That'd be a nasty car.

We should get that a-hole on the board, and flog his shop, convince him to go big power or get him pissed enough to sell it to a non fawkwit.

the way it lays out is perfect the turbo sits in the stock battery location and you can just put a 90 and put the filter right in the fender by the passenger wheel.

just like this guy http://silviav8forums.com/forum/view...5c77cea1f9e2d6

It's all good, black! Everyone's entitled to their own opinion! The blue letters and stitching go together with the car better than the Nardi and NISMO Ti shift **** did, hence the reason for the change.
