I picked up some DC ceramic coated headers... I couldn't get my catalytic converters off without removing the manifolds so I figured might as well. My car is a bit of a rusty mess so im trying to get everything squared away. The previous owner wasn't afraid of salty roads apparently.

 

And here is a teaser of my sweet turbo Nissan haha

 

looks good make sure you check all the bushings they go bad after a while.

 

Mike that turbo looks like its about the size of a penny.

But Death's turbskis look fancy. Whats the end goal boost/power/torque wise? And primarily for drag racing? Or street with some drag?

 

Its a little bit bigger than a half dollar, the whole engine is a little bigger than my lawn mower engine.

 

The battery is the most powerful thing in that engine bay

 

Well I didnt wake up yesterday planning on getting these but it happened

 

And here I just sent you a text about what I think they're worth and you already had them. Congrats on the purchase and welcome to the wide wheel club.

 

That's a good question it seems to change day to day...lol Its mostly a street car with one or 2 drag events and some times a road course. I'm guessing it will be in the mid 600 on pump but who knows its just guessing right now. When I had the JWT 700 turbos the car made 567HP and about the same tq. We changes so much from that setup that its kinda starting from scratch.

 

What are the specs on the wheels?

 

Well keep us updated with progress on it. I'll be shooting for 700s later this summer.

The wheels are Work Equips. 19x10 19x11.5 +14

 

Jesus im over here thinking I will be happy when my car is just drivable again.

 

Mike I'll give you a wonderful friends discount if you want these wheels...

Ive always liked Equips, but now I have to toss them on and if they are too stancy for me then Im just going to flip them

 

My wife just said some horribly offensive comments when I showed her those wheels.

Lets just say she was not a fan.

 

Yea I've already noticed people either tend to love them, think they are ghetto, or just think they look like poo.

 

Just got back from Rochester. This 500whp setup has almost 3k miles on it already and still holding strong.

And the wheels will be test fitted at some point this week. have a lot of school work to get done first so Im not sure when. Only way I will consider the wheels is if I think they look good and Im able to get a 305/30 or a 325/30 on the rears

 

That be a wide *** tire... Got my passenger side dc shorty on... It was every bit as horrible as expected... But finally got those damn catalytic converters off that I have been dreading for over a year...

So happy they are finally off.

 

You going to keep those DC's rust-free?

 

Going to try... Added another layer of primer and paint on them... Hopefully they stay happy.

I honestly hope I never need to remove them... But at least I'll have my game plan if I ever do.



The shape made 3 of those nuts really difficult to tighten... Ended using my ratcheting wrench on them.

 

Also put in new gaskets but they were not the exact same as what I removed... Hopefully they don't leak or have any issues...
